In this episode of FIVE WITH A FALCON, Isaiah Manuel (COMM '25) details his journey at Fitchburg State as a student in the Film/Video Production program. From coming out of the pandemic as a shy and reserved person with no solid direction to becoming an active member in the Communications Media department and taking first place at a student media summit pitch contest, Isaiah reflects on his growth as a student and his ever-evolving skillset. Moreover, he talks about his video production internship at TD Garden, a recent 90-minute documentary he edited for Fitchburg Access Television (FATV), as well as his excitement about his graduation in May 2025.
