What I provide and Examples of my corporate work
Delivering your message is my goal and I do this by creating great narratives. If you're going to make a video for marketing purposes, to inform, to share, or to inspire, it starts with a great story. It also needs to be engaging, informative and have a great call to action. I have a passion for this work and enjoy working with my clients to exceed their expectations.
I work with charities, crown entities and businesses on video projects and other marketing collateral. I also make show reels and audition video's for actors.
My technical skill set includes: Videography, Premiere Pro, Final Cut, Photoshop, ProTools, Final Draft, Adobe Story, sound recording & design and Microsoft Office tools. I also build my own computer equipment from the ground up.

Interview with Wellington Mayor, Justin Lester, for AFS |
AFS wanted to share Wellington Mayor, Justin Lester's inspirational AFS story with their Alumni and supporters.
They decided the best way to do this was to get Justin to tell his story and have a short video made of it. The brief was to film Justin talking and to shape a four minute video sharing his story. I really enjoyed this project, Justin is an inspirational speaker with a great story, and I wanted to capture that on film and show his journey and energy. |
