Introduction:

Welcome to My Journey in Media

Hey everyone! My name is RJ Steadman, and I’m originally from Spartanburg, SC. I’m a graduate transfer from Spartanburg Community College, now pursuing my degree at South Carolina State University (SC State). Alongside my studies, I’m the proud owner of Guapo Images, a sports videography and photography company. Through Guapo Images, I create content for athletes—ranging from youth sports to professional leagues.

In addition to my business, I’m also part of SC State’s sports media team. My responsibilities include capturing and creating content for various sports organizations, working with cameras and editing software, and telling compelling visual stories—often with tight deadlines. As a former athlete myself, I genuinely enjoy capturing moments that athletes and their families can cherish forever.

Fun Facts About Me:

• I’m a huge foodie and love trying new dishes.
• Spending quality time with friends and family is important to me.

Why This Blog?

This blog is a part of my Electronic Media and Production class, and I’m excited to dive into all aspects of media. I’m looking forward to expanding my knowledge, improving my skills, and learning more about how to be a better media creator. 

In this blog, you can expect a mix of content, including:

• Sports talk: Insights into the games, events, and athletes I cover.
• Event recaps: Behind-the-scenes looks at the sports I film and photograph.
• Trending pop culture news: A bit of fun to keep up with what's happening in the world.

Although my professor will be following along, I also want to share this experience with my family, friends, and supporters who want to see what I’m up to and cheer me on as I work toward my goals.

Thank you for taking the time to check out my journey. I hope you enjoy the ride!
