An actor who gets behind the camera can tell a powerful story.
I was an actor and improviser in Chicago for a decade before I realized how effective I could be behind the camera. In 2011, I was given the opportunity to produce all video content for the Chicago startup Marbles: The Brain Store, a retail company focused on a tactile approach to brain health. In six years, I generated 79 million views for their YouTube channel: 15 million for their how-to videos and 64 million for two viral videos. From there, I moved into a producer role for a production company and created 80 personalized brand video for Sotheby’s real estate agents. The videos were to quickly help clients establish a personal connection and trust in an agent. Please view a gallery of those personal brand videos here.
