video that creates
understanding
+ provokes action
I help non-profits and mission-driven small businesses with video courses, video podcasts, explainers, interviews, and more.
video content
with a message
Video content is one of the best ways you can connect with your audience, create understanding, and provoke action. I love getting to talk with organizations to help them assess what their needs are, what resources they have, and come up with a plan that will help you get your message out to the world.

the process
Every video project has a similar starting point and process.
Exploration is a quick, 20-minute video call, where we get to know each other and see if this is a good fit. To make the best use of our time, I have you fill out a brief Exploration Form.
After we decide that it’s a good fit, we begin the process! The Kickoff Call is where we do a deeper dive into the video you are wanting to create. I’ll learn more about you, your organization, and the people you are trying to serve. This information will help me understand how to best craft the following parts of the process.
The Planning Stage is where I take all the information you have given me and create a Story Plan document. The Story Plan is the description of the video project. It will outline what kind of video we are making, the story we are wanting to tell, who we are talking to, and give hints at the visual style of the video.
The Pre-Production stage is where I take the approved Story Plan and start filling in some of the blanks. This is where we will get into scripting, voiceovers, music options, and nail down the visual style of the video, just so that there aren’t any surprises. All of this will be wrapped up in the Production Plan.
Once the Production Plan is locked, we’ll begin making the video! This may mean shooting the video or beginning animation. But the goal here is to take the Production Plan and start making, capturing, and aligning the visuals and audio that we’ll need to put it all together. We’re now putting together the final video product.
