Ed Krasnow, Seminar Participant

Ed Krasnow is a Graduate of Massasoit Community College. He started as a transfer student in January of 1985 and finished in 1986. During that time he was heavily involved with the Massasoit TV Studio. After working in the Hotel Management field for two years Ed went to Emerson College and graduated the Mass Communications program with a concentration in television with a Bachelors of Science. Ed returned to Massasoit to work in the TV studio in a grant funded position as Program Coordinator for the Cable channel under Dr Tim Trask. This job allowed him to work closely with Massasoit Students, Faculty, and Staff and grow his professional and teaching experience. After five and a half years at Massasoit Ed went on to work for a Cambridge based reseller of Digital Video equipment and became an expert in Digital Video editing and technology. Ed was hired first by FAST Electronic and then by Pinnacle Systems, two leading manufacturers of digital video technology, and has held a range of jobs within those companies from Regional Sales Manager to Senior Product Specialist. The exciting part of that work was the opportunity to meet many industry leaders and experienced Broadcast TV production movers and shakers and educate them on technology changes in digital TV and High Definition. Ed designed educational and training seminars and continues to present at conferences on changes in digital technology and what those changes mean to the future of not only television, but video and audio in our daily lives. During his corporate career Ed continued to teach courses at Massasoit including Speech, Introduction to Mass Communication, Advanced TV Production, and Digital Non-Linear Editing. After about 10 years of traveling he was excited to return to his home at Massasoit and is currently the Director of TV and Radio at the School.
