DEVYN DYETT
MULTIMEDIA JOURNALIST & FILMMAKER
Devyn Dyett is a senior undergraduate student at the University of Southern California pursuing a BFA in Film and Television Production with a minor in Sports Media. Growing up in sunny South Florida, Devyn spent most of her time playing basketball and at the beach. In 2019, she picked up a camera to record a football game for a school assignment and hasn’t put it down since. Devyn wants to share stories through filmmaking and produce content that will broaden perspectives.
Her latest short film “Coach’s Office” was inspired by a multitude of experiences working with different athletes. The production of the film was also an opportunity for other Black students to participate in their first on-set role. Read all about it here:
In addition to her studies, she works for the USC Athletics Video Production Department. Devyn was the lead producer for Women’s Volleyball for their 2022-23 season, creating 24 videos for various social platforms generating over 5 million views. Devyn also traveled with the team to Brazil, capturing their tour of the country on and off the court.
In front of the camera, Devyn is an anchor for Annenberg TV Sports Scene, where she creates packages and goes live each week to report news on all USC Sports. She has interviewed WNBA player Sophie Cunningham to create social media content for @ballislife and provided season updates for USC Women’s Basketball’s social channels.
“I am captivated by film’s ability to evoke emotion within the audience and am passionate about sharing stories. Through my work, I hope to create connections between cultures and show that we are all more alike than we think.
