“Pay attention. Learn your trade.” That was the edict my father drove into my head at an early age. It started in the summers during high school, when I worked as a laborer for his contracting firm. It continued when I decided to pursue photo and video production as a career. “You can learn something from anyone. Pay attention. Learn your trade.”
My trade, as well as my passion, is telling stories, both scripted and unscripted. Everyone has an interesting story, you just need to know how to listen and, in my case, where to point the camera.
Over the past many years I have produced and shot film, video and photo projects for top media production and fortune 500 companies. My work has taken me throughout the US as well as Europe, South America and Asia. Presently you can find me producing video for IBM, based in Armonk, New York.
The one downside of working in corporate video is that the majority of projects I work on are restricted to an internal audience. As a result my online portfolio suffered from a lack of fresh content. So I’m taking a new approach. I have stripped away a good deal of my former websites content and intend to take this redesign in a more free flowing, creative direction. Wish me luck.
Well over 30 years in the business and I’m still learning. Have an idea? Talk to me. I am always looking for an interesting project, a new adventure, the next story.
