FILMOGRAPHY
Mission Health Commercial
In directing this commercial the Mission was to show the region of Asheville, NC that Mission Health employees care about their patients. We achieved this by featuring a Trauma nurse and showcasing her story to exemplify the brand of Mission Health.
Northern Arizona Healthcare
Commercial
Traveling to Arizona to DP & Direct this commercial was a treat. The goal was to promote the NAH Orthopedic Institute, and the creative vision was to feature active individuals throughout the Arizona region.
Signature Healthcare, Commercial
This commercial was a joy to produce and direct. The client wanted to feature middle-age people still performing at a high physical level. I was able to achieve this through a dramatic story in revealing this age group performing several activities.
Outer Banks Hospital, Commercial
The client wanted to show that they served a diverse population and we achieved this through the fabulous lifestyles on the Outer Banks. I directed this commercial to showcase the feeling of an active population and liefstyle.
Drone Portfolio
I am a licensed Drone pilot and having a cinematic background gives me the best perspective when taking to the air. The skill and precision to fly a drone mixed with a cinematic approach makes for some amazing shots.
Vidant Medical Center, Commercial
"Early" was the theme of this commercial, I was able to capture that in every shot as I directed this piece of art. There are some impressive scenes in this commercial that I feel depict the morning glow and releate directly to the objective of this commercial to detect cancer "Early"
