Photography & Media Production

Class of 2028 | Blue Valley Southwest High School | Wolf Bite Media Production Team

Profile

Kevin Franz Jr. is a Class of 2028 student at Blue Valley Southwest High School and an active member of the Wolf Bite media production team. He splits his time between the classroom, athletics, and the sideline, where he's most at home behind a camera capturing live sports and school events.

Over the past few seasons, Kevin has developed a strong interest in sports media and content production, especially photography and short-form video. Through Wolf Bite, he has covered multiple Blue Valley Southwest athletic programs, including soccer and volleyball, focusing on storytelling through game action, candid moments, and behind-the-scenes content that highlight both school athletics and community.

Kevin is also intentionally building experience at the college level. Most recently, he shot photos and video at a college football game—Penn State vs. Northwest Missouri State at Children's Mercy Park (Sporting KC)—where he focused on capturing the atmosphere, game action, and fan experience from a media perspective. That opportunity reinforced his interest in working around college athletics and growing his skills within a professional media environment.
