About Brad
As a basic summary, I am a new media expert with a unique blend of creative, technology, and analytical/planning skills who specializes in video for the web, internet marketing, and social networking/media. I currently have approximately over 50 major corporate videos, 50 television episodes and commercials, an award winning PBS documentary, and more than 7 years of production/post-production and new media experience under my belt. During my career, I have taped, edited, and produced everything from weddings to cable television series. I have also taught Final Cut Pro and video production both at Apple Authorized Training Centers and on the collegiate level for Western Michigan University.
On a personal level, my beautiful wife and I were married in November of 2007 and currently live in our first house located in Oak Park, MI. Married life is amazing. The house is a work in progress. Our love gets better and better every day! We love to watch movies, go for walks, ride bikes, cook together, hang out with friends, and do home remodeling projects. No kids yet… but for sure in the future. For now we are content trying to learn to live with our rescued puppies Bomber (toy poodle) and Gunner (mini poodle and Bichon Frize mix).
A great video documentary from Blog World Expo 2009 created by Marc Ostrick and Michael Sean Wright.
So how is your business doing? Has it openly embraced social networking and pursuing that active, two-way communication/relationship with its employees and customers? Or is it still trying to dictate a message that may be falling on deaf ears?
There were 56.9 million people in July 2009 using the Internet on mobile devices. Is your site set up to attract any of these users? Or will frustration drive them away?
This is a video that I created as part of my Internet Marketing masters program. For the class Business Storytelling and Brand Development, the assignment was to take a common fable, apply a brand’s story to it, and create some form of media presentation for the story.
On a recent weekend trip to Best Buy, I was pleasantly surprised to find they were using mobile marketing/customer service in a very helpful way.
