Director of Video Production

Engineering & Production

Created the video production department of The SPARK Programs, an organization that creates physical education curriculums to help fight childhood obesity. Determined the need for and purchased $30,000 worth of equipment to set up department, including cameras, sound, lighting, and digital post-production hardware and software. Filmed over 500 short films for website and training. Scheduled, organized and facilitated every aspect of dozens of film shoots both on location and in studio. Created a green screen studio in-house for “talking head” videos. Was responsible for every aspect of video creation: concept, script, scheduling, budgeting, organization of cast, crew and locations, lighting, camera, shooting, digitizing, post-production editing, creation of all graphics and photography, sound, output in various formats, uploading to website and creation of DVDs. 


I started with SPARK as a graphic designer, then in 2008 we decided to expand our website and our teacher training, so I was tasked with the set up of a video production department. Starting from scratch and given $80,000 for the first year, I purchased all the equipment and began shooting videos. I have made that $80,000 last four years and have written, directed, storyboarded, filmed, lit, sound recorded, edited, created all the graphics and animations for over 350 short videos.

I am a freelance graphic artist and illustrator, with extensive package design, logo design, character design, and general business printing production experience.  I am also a cartoonist and film maker, with several years of professional non-linear editing and film making behind me.
