Rocco

Rocco Romano brings humor, creativity, and dedication to everything he does at High Five Access Media. With a sharp wit and a love for storytelling, Rocco first joined our family at the High Five Youth Film Camp in 2023, where he quickly became a standout participant. Thanks to his efforts, Film Camp 2023 was an extraordinary success. In 2024, he deepened his connection by volunteering to help staff as a videography intern during summer camp, leaving a lasting impression through his energy and talent.

Now a core volunteer, Rocco runs cameras for our Game of the Week series and continues to inspire us with his passion for film. He's even found a way to merge filmmaking with another of his numerous interests, theater. He's crafted cinematic trailers for Battle Mountain theater productions (including his recent star turn as Lord Capulet in Romeo & Juliet) to share with the community. All the while, Rocco is eager to demonstrate leadership and take charge of any project that comes across his desk.

His dream of studying film production at New York University is well underway, and we’re honored to play a part in his journey. From his deep admiration for Jurassic Park to his commitment to elevating our programming, Rocco reminds us why storytelling matters. We can't wait to see what Rocco does next!
