About the contributors
Aidyn Kinchen, Online Editor-in-Chief
Aidyn Kinchen is a senior and multifaceted member of the VNHS Mirror leadership team. He is in his second year as an online editor, as well as a producer and cameraman for Real Humans, and tends to be a frequent competition writer. He has won 5 awards through journalism so far at the local, state and national level, and hopes to continue this forward momentum. Outside of journalism, he’s one of two student leaders in the Digital Media department, coming off a year of one of the best news shows the school has seen to date and awarded with the honor of 3rd best broadcast news in the state through the Southern California Journalism Education Association. With graduation brightly looming for Aidyn, he hopes to study film/television and broadcast journalism at any of the top film schools in the country. In his leisure time, he enjoys making custom beaded bracelets and listening to as many genres of music as there are stars in the sky.
Gianmarco Razuri, Photographer
Gianmarco Razuri, a senior, is a photographer for the photography section as well as the videographer and editor for the Real Humans of Van Nuys High School, a man on the street interview style show run by students. Razuri plays tennis for the school. He’s obsessed with comic books, especially movies based on them. His love for superheroes started his love for filmmaking. He enjoys writing the most out of all the positions in a film crew because he loves the experience of seeing his ideas transfer from paper to screen. Even as a little kid he would create fictional characters and draw them into his own mini-novels. Currently he’s in his fourth year of video production as a teachers assistant with plenty of experience in camera, writing, producing, directing and editing.
