Mr. Devin L. Cooper
Teacher & Director // High-Tech Video Production
Hello students, parents, and colleagues! My name is Devin Levi Cooper, and I’m excited to be starting my 5th year with the Madison County Schools family. I am a teacher and the director of High-Tech Video Production (HTVP). I teach HTVP 1, 2, 3, & 4 at Madison Central High School.
I was born in Germany as an Army brat, then my family moved to Baton Rouge, Louisiana for a while, before we settled in Kansas City, Missouri, where I was raised. My passion for video production, which began at Blue Springs High School, inspired me to pursue higher education at Full Sail University in Florida, where I earned a Bachelor of Science in Film Studies. Upon graduation, I immersed myself in videography, traveling globally as a freelancer. My work spanned various projects, including commercials, promotional videos, and travel films across New Zealand, Thailand, Laos, and Europe. Additionally, I have contributed behind the scenes and on-set to more than 100 films, music videos, and documentaries during my 15-year tenure in the industry. I have a deep passion for teaching by sharing the life experiences I've gained throughout my career in education.
As a teacher of film production and multimedia, I am thrilled to share my expertise with Madison County Schools, aiming to inspire your children just as I was inspired during my high school years! During my leisure time, I engage in hobbies such as photography, drawing, playing board games, watching movies, cooking, and creating memories with my wife and three children, our two daughters and a son.
