I tell stories. Let’s make yours the one to watch.
If you're gonna tell a story, go big or go home.
A good story makes a complex idea simple to understand. It engages the audience. Whether you're trying to reach new business, investors or the general public, your story has to connect quickly or you're roadkill.
In our A.D.D.-challenged world, video is a no-brainer. Done right, it gives the most amount of information in the least amount of time. Video gets you through your target's front door. Your story's broadest reach is through the electronic screen. Smart Phones, tablets, computers, TV and corporate installations - if it has a screen, I've made video for it.
Branded Content, Case Studies or Product Introductions
These days, anyone can shoot a video yet, few can shape, edit and deliver a concise and effective story, properly targeted, on time and on budget. That's what I do.

Concisely targeted, Story remains king.
My goal is to deliver an engaging, well designed story and moreover, to make sure you're happy with the final results. Whether you need a web video, broadcast commercial, video wall installation or corporate event video, I have years of experience at directing, cinematography, editing, graphics - TELLING STORIES and I’m great at all of them. I’m a visual storyteller who works wherever the job is.
My team of seasoned pros will move you through the entire process; from core concept, production and delivery to your intended audience.
How it works.
Say, "Hi!"
It usually starts off with a call or an email. Tell me a bit about your company and what you're interested in doing. I love meeting new people so I'll get back to you right away!
Let's talk.
Once we connect, you'll do most of the talking (while I listen and learn). I'll ask questions.
How long is a piece of string?
Beyond those regarding your story, the two most practical questions are, how soon and how much? Depending upon your story, projects can last anywhere from two to ten weeks. Of course, the story you wish to tell will also influence the cost. I've worked with budgets of many sizes. If you have a fixed budget and I feel it's manageable, I'll make it work. If you have some wiggle room, give me an average and I'll go from there. Either way, it's good to have a ballpark idea. Somewhere between "A" and "Z" helps me develop a plan suitable for your budget.
As the old adage goes, "You can have it fast, good or cheap - pick two." I insist upon "good" (actually, "great"). The other two are negotiable.
Seriously...
Typically, I'll ask for a Purchase Order or provide a Letter of Agreement defining deliverables / deadlines and a deposit.
I'll do my homework.
After our chat, I'll come back with a written, illustrated plan (or more) and see what you think. Hopefully, you'll see something you like. If need be, I'll make some adjustments.
This is the fun part.
Whether it's a shoot, edit, graphics or often all three, production is where your story get's made. It's exciting, Zen, intense and always fun. This is what I live for. In telling your story, I'll tap every resource I have to bear in delivering the highest production values to the screen.
It's all in the delivery.
I'll show you a draft. My rough cuts are usually pretty close to finished cuts yet there's always room for improvement. I'll ask for your feedback, make the final tweaks and deliver the final in whatever format works best for you. Lastly, if your video is for the web, I'll help you with the Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
