Hi, my name is Jenny Cooper. I recently graduated from the University of Texas at Austin with a B.S. in Radio-TV-Film. This website, once I flesh out the content is intended to be a portfolio of the work I’ve done over the course of my college career. I will also be adding new items as new projects arise, which I will post here, on the “Recent Projects” page.

At the moment, I am shifting gears between bringing my college experience here in Austin to a close and pursuing new opportunities in the San Francisco Bay Area where I will be moving in mid-August. As I will be leaving the country in a few days, I am struggling to put this site together rather hastily before I go gallivanting across Europe with my boyfriend, Dries (visiting family, celebrating graduation and my birthday), so please excuse any bugs or confusion as I develop this online portfolio.

Currently, recent projects include a stint as a scenic painter on Zilker Theatre Production’s Zilker Summer Musical performance of The Music Man, and my final projects for my Digital Animation and Design for Performance classes. My project for Digital Animation was a narrative short about a college student fed up with her job at a certain corporate coffee chain. I should probably say that this is in no way a representation of any real persons or corporate entities… Anyway, the Design for Performance class’s final project was a 1/4″ scale model of the Iden B. Payne Theatre on the UT campus complete with scale set pieces and props for a story of my own invention based on a randomly assigned piece of music. You can look for both of these in their appropriate categories on this site as I continue to work on one of my newest projects… this site.
