Marcel Robinson joined the Action Sports Jax team as a sports reporter & photographer in June of 2017. Marcel is the definition of a true local as he was born and raised in the market. Upon graduation from the University of North Florida, his first stop was another Jacksonville television station where he served as a commercial video editor for nearly five years. While building his skills and portfolio, he created his own television show from concept to completion, that consisted of him competing against local athletes on every skill level. He was typically on the losing end of those competitions. In addition to his work with the station, Marcel is a self-taught still photographer. Before joining the Action Sports Jax team, he photographed many live sporting events, including Jacksonville Jaguars home games. He uses his talents as a still photographer, often making trips home and away to find the perfect images for his portfolio. Marcel is a Georgia boy at heart, as he spent much of his adolescent years in Folkston. He frequently makes his way back to the small town to get away from the "city life" on occasion. In Marcel's spare time, you'll find him in the sports arena as a participant instead of a photographer, and he'll never hesitate to brag about his multiple flag football championships.
