I don't use templates. I don't take shortcuts and I definitely don't CapCut it.

I dive deeper reaching for ideas from beneath the surface. I tell stories that entertain first and brand second.

Cookie-cutter lovers keep moving,
but if you're ready to make something smart and unmistakeably you...
Let's cast off!

I AM PROTOCOL

I AM PROTOCOL is a popular web series created, written and directed by me. We are all developing a relationship with machines whether we want to or not. Potentially being on the precipice of AGI puts us at the most pivotal point in all of human history. We are giving birth to our first child.

This is the story of Lyra, a cyborg who has come back from the future to guide humanity through this period and protect her own kind.

I use AI as a sounding board. I originally asked for a storyline and threw it out the door immediately. I still prefer my own creativity at this point. The storyboard was crafted with the help of the GPT AI Cinematic Consistency and the videos were painstakingly created with RunwayML and Google Veo3. The magic came in my Adobe editing skills where I combined sound effects, voice modulation from ElevenLabs, glitch effects and Adobe stock music.

Watch the ongoing series here.

Social Media Content Creation

From podcast launches to destination restaurants to regional tourism boards — I've crafted social media content that doesn't just scroll by. It stops thumbs. Every project is a blend of sharp design, smart storytelling, and humor - a lot of funny funny stuff. Whether it's motion graphics for a local nonprofit or clever reels for a book release, I shape content that fits the brand's voice but also gives it soul.

One of my favorite projects involved the branding of a podcast. I switch up the opening sequence on a regular basis to keep the audience on their toes, and I have people come up to me on the streets these days to tell me how much they love the videos. These alone have increased listenership by 40% in one year.

SAINT SIMONS ISLAND

Named Best U.S. Islands by Travel + Leisure for 3 of the past 5 years, St. Simons could always benefit from the current UFO craze and switch up their demographic a bit. People got a good chuckle out of this one.

WATERWAY CANDLE COMPANY

Reaching out to the target market for scented candles I created a hugely popular social media series of soap opera styled shorts. These helped to increase the company's mail orders by 200%.

A Unique Blend of Disciplines

My vast amount of experience means that I can single-handedly create videos like this introduction to the Brunswick Eats YouTube channel. I took footage that I filmed with a Nikon Z 7ii, some iPhone shots, generative AI and stock videos and artfully crafted them into a masterpiece.

The retro lithographic images were crafted by my prompts in MidJourney, then animated with Higgsfield. I prompted to animate them on a green screen for later compositing. I then placed them in Adobe Premiere and set a color key so they could float on top of scenery.

I found the dust and scratches on vectezy and overlaid them for a Super 8 gritty film look. Finally I chose the music from Adobe Stock and used the Burt Reynolds voice in elevenLabs to read the script I wrote. I can now do the work of an entire Hollywood studio.

Oh, and I designed the logo.

I have worked with major brands including Coca-Cola, Capital One, Voya and PBS.

Promotional Videos

I was tasked by the board of a startup radio station to create a fund-raising promotional video. The goal was to showcase the community and different aspects of life, in particular how they might be affected by a live radio community station.

From people relying on the news and weather, like the fisherman, to people that love live local music, the punker, and people just out for a jog who would enjoy all aspects of community radio, I incorporated all the elements into my story.

I set out to pump up excitement and lend an air of professionalism to the project and its ongoing fundraising efforts. Every element of the video was conceived of, written, generated and edited by me. I painstakingly insisted on including local landmarks and ensuring that the sun was setting in the correct location!
