columbus regional airport authority

video production, copywriting, social media strategy, social listening

the columbus regional airport authority (craa) is an independent goverment entity that operates three central ohio airports: john glenn columbus international airport (cmh), rickenbacker international airport (lck), and bolton field (tzr).

as the digital media intern, i’ve created content across instagram, tiktok, facebook, linkedin, threads, and x social media platforms.

throughout my internship, i’ve learned how to do the following:

🪽 produce and edit short-form videos using capcut and edits

🪽 write captions that are tailored to platform-specific audiences

🪽 use sprout social to track metrics and community listening

🪽 revise and give feedback on a weekly internal newsletter

🪽 communicate with audiences of up to 15.2k followers, whether it’s announcing nonstop flight service, or sharing updates on a terminal redevelopment plan.

social media trends

this video follows a reactive social media trend, ‘preparing for a netflix documentary on…’

sprout social was used to find audience insights and source inspiration for this video - realizing that cmh has great cranberry-scented hand soap and passengers love when we post about it on social.

to direct this video, i worked with the custodial services manager who came up with the cranberry scent idea, and filmed him in the terminal. the video was edited using instagram edits.

this video gives social media audiences a glimpse into airport operations - and the parts that passengers wouldn’t typically see on the way to their flight.

while the grounds crew was unloading baggage during a summer heatwave, airport staff members handed out towels to cool them off, and i was able to capture this event and post a video around it - using a capcut template as an editing tool.
