Meet The Hosts

Creator & Host: Emily Kramer
 

Emily has always loved A Great Story. So much so, that being part of telling A Great Story became her quest.

At 11, she began creating backyard plays with the neighborhood kids and made all the costumes. As an adult, she followed her quest through theater as a costume director, traveled through history with reenactors, through cinema in short film, and with musicians in music videos. Also delving into fashion design, she designed a few clothing lines, showing at NY Fashion Institute of Technology, Savannah College of Art and Design, Charlotte Fashion Week, and New York Fashion Week.

Currently, Emily is a podcaster with The Modern Romantic, and a photographer, allowing her to create her own Great Stories, usually in the form of epic fantasy photos. Her background of historical costume design tends to bleed over into her modern-day artistic endeavors. It's a journey filled with stories, art, fashion, and the ceaseless pursuit of A Great Story.

Host: Trey Pittman

Trey is a classically trained vocal performer in opera, musical theatre, and voice over work. Having earned a Master's Degree from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Trey focuses on telling the story first and letting the other elements enhance the experience. Plus, he's fun to have at Karaoke nights. 

 

Being a child of the 90s, Studio Ghibli and Disney animated films were his earliest influences of storytelling. "My Neighbor Totoro," "Howl’s Moving Castle," and "The Little Mermaid" are still among his favorite movies he returns to for inspiration. 

 

Musical theatre and choir have been a consistent conduit for his creativity. In the most recent years, his favorite performances include the Big Bad Wolf in a children's opera rendition of "Little Red Riding Hood" and the Nasty, Interesting Man in Sara Ruhl's "Eurydice." After a hiatus from the stage, he looks forward to making his return.

 

By day, Trey designs and creates training content. By night, he develops YouTube content focused on storytelling and exploring voice over work, is a podcast host on The Modern Romantic podcast, and he sews his own costumes.
