Tom De Fonzo has joined The Loadstar Team as our multimedia content creator, tasked with leading cutting-edge video projects as part of our editorial output.
He has more than 15 years’ experience in video production, creating video content, short docu-style series, interactive graphics, 360-video, and social clips.
He had a three year tenure as a multimedia producer for Dow Jones, and boasts an impressive eight-year career at The Wall Street Journal as executive producer and senior video journalist. An example of his work there can be seen in a video-explainer titled How a Steel Box Changed the World: A Brief History of Shipping.
For his first project at The Loadstar, Tom will transform our long-running and popular News in Brief podcast from audio-only to video format, and launch our official The Loadstar You Tube Channel – the first episode of which will launch on Monday 8 December.
Through this, our listeners will still enjoy the same concise, timely and analytical round-up of the week’s supply chain news, but now boosted by the engaging and personal aspect that comes with visual media.
Tom will also produce short-form clips from the News in Brief Podcast to be shared on our social media platforms.
The Loadstar publisher Alex Lennane said: “It is so exciting to see The Loadstar moving into new pastures, and we are delighted to be working with such an experienced and talented video producer like Tom. We are constantly working to improve our editorial output, and I know that Tom is the perfect person to help transform our already well-established podcast series.“I can’t wait to see what our team can produce under Tom’s guidance.”
