LINE PRODUCER, AGENCY PRODUCER, DIRECTOR (DGA)

Me v-4
BIO:

With nearly 20 years of experience, my background is deep and varied in media production across all platforms: traditional live-action commercials, branded content, visual effects (CGI, motion control and compositing), music videos, documentaries, multi-camera live concerts/events, television, network promos, PSAs, and short films.

I have produced projects spanning the
full spectrum of scale and budget. I embrace the challenges as they come and am as comfortable with a small crew on a shoestring budget working out of a mini van on a state lottery spot, as I am with a continent-hopping multi-million dollar campaign for a major automotive conglomerate.

To establish a strong presence in a tough and competitive market, I work closely with
directors and production companies to generate tight and polished creative treatments, estimate and generate bids from concept to delivery, and guide the bidding phase through the labyrinth of creative concerns and cost-control measures to a final award.

When it comes time to shoot, I manage and supervise all location scouting, casting, crew hiring, contract negotiations, scheduling, travel logistics, any union and/or guild negotiations, equipment and technology issues, payroll, and of course all agency and
client representations.

Past projects have taken me to shoots all over
the world and across the United States. I have worked with ad agencies large and small, global and regional. I am fluent in all phases of pre-production, production and post-production and can, if needed, follow through and supervise editorial to final delivery.
