BUILD BELIEF IN

YOUR BRAND

EXPERIENCE YOU CAN TRUST

DIRECTOR & PRODUCER

Not sure where to begin or what to talk about in your videos? Leave it to me! I've worked with countless clients and companies. I use professional lighting techniques and conduct the interview to draw out your story. I collect broll footage that visually aids the overall story and message.

VIDOGRAPHER & EDITOR

I create everything from single videos to series that are part of a larger campaign. My tested approach ensures that each video tells the audience something about your brand. Everything, from the footage to the music, is strategically selected and pieced together into a cohesive story.

WRITER & STORYTELLER

Making sure we communicate the correct message is vital. I'll help you strategize, develop and organize key themes into a narrative that distinguishes your brand and message. In order to connect with your audience, we will do our homework and figure out their triggers.

SOCIAL MEDIA MANAGER

I have years of experience managing social media platforms as a full-time job. Weird, right? This means I can help advise you on good practices and make sure that you get the most out of your posts. The details matter! I can help make the language in your posts add to your content.

LICENSED DRONE PILOT

Need "a bird's eye view?" I am an FAA certified drone operator, which means I can not only get the aerial pictures and videos you want, but I am licensed to do so. There are a lot of rules and regulations to be aware of before operating a drone. I'm legally responsible to adhere to the standards.

MORE MARKETING SOLUTIONS

PHOTOGRAPHY

Professional pictures let people see your brand in a controlled and intentional way. Capturing the right moments isn't just for looks. It will help people understand the culture and values of your brand. Professional images can also be used to enhance the authenticity of your website.

WEBSITE DESIGN

What does your website or lack thereof say about your business? A website is like your new front door. Nearly half of consumers search for a website and reviews before buying something. We need to ensure that your online presence is an accurate representation of your business.

LOGO DESIGN

A good logo, slogan and brand element will help your company stand out. If you're considering a marketing budget for a website or video, it may be an ideal time to get a new logo as well. A memorable logo is invaluable. Many companies rebrand periodically to maintain a modern image.

I started Close-Up with you in mind. The name Close-Up is a double entendre; it hints to the camera, but more importantly, it speaks to the way I operate. It's necessary for me to obtain a "close-up" perspective of you and your business. Partner with me so your audience can have a new "lens" to learn about your brand, products and services.

About Close-Up

I got my start producing videos in the Air Force.

My Background

IMG_566F9FF4E6A4-1_edited.jpg
534134.jpg

I joined the Air Force in 2015. I was trained as a broadcast journalist and for six years I had the privilege to work at the global headquarters for joint-military communications. I worked on several high visibility projects, including videos for the SECAF, CSAF, and CMSAF. (Those are acronyms for the Air Force's highest-ranking officials. They command the military at The Pentagon alongside the President.) Working with several extremely talented people enabled me to hone and develop my vocation.

 

I have received professional training in TV and Radio production; specifically in videography, editing, writing, lighting and voice training. In the military I had many roles. While working as a Video Content Producer and Social Media Manager, I really found my niche. At the core, all of my training supports a goal: effective communication. Creating engaging video content is one of the most efficient ways to communicate and broaden your audience.

 

After the military I moved back home to Ohio with my wife, Haley. I quickly realized the market need in our local area that Close-Up could fill. My past work experiences equipped me to use my camera as a tool for others. For the past two years I've worked with more than 30 different local businesses, schools and non-profits creating content that helps share their story, vision, and goals. I look forward to every opportunity to partner with new people and help accommodate their video needs. I hope to help you meet your content goals and enhance the overall marketing capabilities in my hometown region. I plan to be the person you trust and call with every video idea you may have, now or in the future.
