My name is Davis Fosgitt my journey into videography began in high school when I discovered a multimedia arts class that sparked my interest in visual storytelling. My inspiration for the creative process, however, goes back even further. In middle school, I attended a specialized school where I majored in 2D and 3D art. While I initially had a deep passion for traditional art, the rigid structure of the curriculum burned me out and stifled my creativity. After stepping away from traditional art, I discovered video and photography, which reignited my love for the creative process. This shift allowed me to explore storytelling in a whole new way, and I never looked back. During those high school years, I spent much of my free time creating skateboarding videos, experimenting with editing techniques, and participating in short film contests. These early experiences laid the foundation for my passion for capturing and sharing stories.
I went on to earn my bachelor’s degree in Television and Digital Media Production at Ferris State University, where my passion for sports and video merged seamlessly. Whether working on the live broadcast team or shooting highlight reels for athletic events, I felt most alive when I combined creativity with the electrifying energy of sports. During my time at Ferris, I gained hands-on experience at marketing firms and internships, learning how to craft compelling stories from even the most unexpected topics. At Yellow Dog Creative, for example, I honed the art of turning everyday subjects like AC condensers and garbage disposals into engaging visual narratives that captured audiences.
My time at Berlin Raceway was another formative chapter. Starting as a fill-in camera operator, I worked my way up to leading and directing live broadcasts with a full video team. These experiences taught me not just the technical aspects of videography but also how to lead teams and manage multifaceted projects effectively.
Today, I am proud to channel my skills into telling the human stories behind sports at Detroit City Football Club. Whether it’s capturing the journey of an athlete, the dynamics of a team, or the emotional highs and lows of victory and defeat, I aim to connect fans to the heart of the game. I strive to inspire the next generation of sports enthusiasts and deepen the connection between teams and their supporters.
I always say, “I’m just an average guy trying to live an extraordinary life.” My drive to pursue a career in video production comes from a realization from my youth. My main goal in life is to positively impact other people’s lives, inspire someone like those who have inspired me, and leave my mark on the world.
