Manx Taiki Magyar
Raised on these Sandwich beaches from Kindergarten to Sandwich High Graduation, I made my way to Boston. There I graduated Cum Laude from Northeastern University in 2014 with a duel major in Cinema Studies/Communication and a minor in Video Production. During my time there I had opportunities to work in New York City and Boston; from reality TV to commercials to public access. But through my own independent work and freelance, I further cultivated my love and experience in the video production. After university, I moved to Japan to explore more of my cultural heritage, and continue pursing visual development independently. I recently completed a cross-continental video documentary traveling from Tokyo, Japan to Lisbon, Portugal without airplanes. Now I am back where I started working with the wonderfully and creatively fueled Sandwich Community TV, continuing my journey into the visual and audio landscape.
