VIDEO + AUDIO PRODUCTION

I have been producing video and audio for more than 24 years. From commercials and radio broadcast, to video for social media and online distribution, I love creating original video and audio to achieve a specific goal for my clients. 

John Cleese for Toasted Head RR Chardonnay

I was fortunate to work with John Cleese recording a voiceover launching Toasted Head Russian River Chardonnay. I shot, directed, edited, and produced the video, working with a script writer for the narrative. John was gracious enough to invite us to record his voice work right at his home near Santa Barbara. I wrote, performed and recorded the music soundtrack as well for this project. 

Matchbook Herdsman Cabernet

I worked with Matchbook Winery to create this launch video for their Herdsman Cabernet for Matchbook release. The goal was to explain what went into creating the wine, and let the audience know the full backstory.

Serres Ranch Blueberries

Often times, I’m a one-man video production outfit. I filmed, produced, and edited this quick feature on Serres Ranch Blueberries near Laytonville, CA.

Tips and Tricks for a Healthy Heart​

For this video, I filmed a heart surgeon, a professional cartoonist, and used the stop motion technique as a fun way to help educate kids about heart health. Since the target audience consisted of children who were making drawings for a heart healthy drawing contest, I chose to use stop motion of Bob Armstrong drawing heart health related imagery. It was a fun project with an intensely short timeline.

 

Fresh to Market Organic Milk​

I was fortunate to be able to design the packaging as well as create and produce this video and other materials for Fresh to Market Organic Milk. My goal was to make a connection with the "farm to fork" movement that is happening, but with local milk.  

Fresh to Market Honey

Filming around bees was a bit daunting, but it was also exciting and challenging. I used a simple interview with the beekeepers to tell the story of Fresh to Market honey. I also played and recorded the guitar music in the background of this video.

Food 4 Less Stop Motion

​The goal of this video was to show amazing meal deals in 30 seconds. I thought the best way to show how far money can go at Food 4 Less was to actually show the amount of food able to be purchased, but with a fun twist... bring the food to life!

Hogue Cellars Screwcap Launch

​With Hogue Cellars, I had the challenge of creating a video that explained cork taint and launched their new screwcapped wine. The winemakers had done many studies on cork taint, so I took that aspect and used their lab coat style in a fun and educational way.

Kumala South African Wines Intro to USA

The goal of this video was to create a commercial to introduce Kumala wines to the US market. After building a faux grocery store shelf, my colleagues and I were able to act out our vision and help our sales team establish the brand.

 

RH Phillips Screwcap Introduction

This video was created as a teaser-trailer that was emailed to wine distributors to prepare them for our new screwcap closure for RH Phillips wines. The idea of screwcaps for wine was still a new one, and this was one of many videos to help our sales team educate buyers about our motivation to move to screwcaps.​
