Hey all, I work in the business of creating video and film content for musicians, businesses & brands, and sometimes I just make films for fun with my closest friends.
I'm not a director in the usual sense. That's usually the question I get from people. Instead, I produce. I handle the logistics, budgeting, compliance, and overall project management for video shoots and the clients that are paying for them. A general liason between all involved parties/creatives.
I've been fortunate enough to have been a part of hundreds of music video and commercial shoots. Some you may or probably have even seen.
More importantly, what this has given me is incredible insight on the inner workings of what it takes to put together a fully scaled brand commercial or other video content/storytelling. As a result, I am constantly studying the landscape of what we know as media, content creation and storytelling. Most importantly, the relationships, structures and models between that and - sales, brand development, psychology, and much more.
And, for about the last 3 years as I've soaked up everything in my path, I look back and realize that I have a sense of pride in what I've learned in this world of film/media production. But I"m also extremely hungry for more progress. I know I can only progress if I do my part in helping others progress. And so this thread was born.
Personally, I don't separate "work" with "personal" life because I focus on doing things that I want to do and spend time with people who I want to be with. People who inspire me. So consequently, much of my time is spent in an environment where there is an insane amount of collaboration of ideas from people of all types. Directors, entrepreneurs, product developers, talent agencies, musicians, visual artist and much more.
So this thread is for anyone who wants to ask questions that relate to media, content creation (of any type), social media, storytelling from my perspective as a producer!
Really hoping to get deep with this.
I really enjoy what I do - and the same excitement I get by being around and creating with my closest business/industry partners on a daily basis I think exists here.
