About Me

Cinematographer. Filmmaker. Storyteller. 

I would love the opportunity to work with you guys! And it’s okay to say it out loud: 'I would love to hire this Brandon guy! See how it just rolls off the tip of your tongue? For the past 20 years, I've produced, directed, shot, and edited travel shows, realities, commercials, industrial, training, web, surgeries, and films both domestic and foreign... meaning I know pressure and work well under it. I also have twenty kids and they all wanna eat. Their fate rests upon your shoulders. And only you have the key to their salvation. Would you say no to a child? Help me help them and let's stop their hunger... and world domination and terrorism and people who wear plaid and think it's cool, but if you wear plaid, it looks really great on you. (I also have superpowers). So come on. Let's join forces and save the world one project at a time. And everybody knows that really hot girls dig superheroes who save the world. Or maybe it's because women know that superheroes wear tights and that if they wear tights... they must really be in touch with their feminine side. I am afraid of men who wear tights, but I'd love to do a film about it. Not really, but that's beside the point. The point is about this project and the joining of forces. So let's all do this and be superheroes with a big'ol fan base. Hope to hear from ya soon".

​

Hopefully, the above made you laugh. It's often hard to stand out amongst the throngs of other applicants so thank you for indulging me while I shamelessly try to stand out. I am college-educated, clock-like reliable, and beaming with confidence and positivity. I possess a thorough understanding of composition and multiple stylistic formats of shooting (Branding, Commercial, Docuseries/Follow, Episodic, ENG Run & Gun, Verité, Broadcast, Interview, Corporate, Conference, Film, Sports, Event, Surgical, Lab, etc.) Included in my bag of tricks are directing talent, camera ops, and crew, multiple lighting configurations and mood setups, audio setups, blocking, scripting writing, and set dressing. You also don't have to worry about whether I'll show up. If I book it, I'll be there "early on time".

​

I am a solid, engaging, artistic DP and excellent under pressure (like Gordon Ramsay kitchen pressure), world-traveled, well-spoken, and ridiculously easy to get along with. And because I've done so much traveling both domestic and foreign, it's afforded me many opportunities to come across many different types of personalities and characters. Being a lifelong and intuitive student of psychology and a deep thinker, I have learned to build genuine trust, diffuse negativity, and promote high-spirited camaraderie. Humor is key (and a little self-deprecation).  I want to make sure I knock out a home run for you so you'll use me again and refer me to your friends and colleagues.
