Hey There,
My name is Devin
I’m an award winning producer with decades of experience in creative services. For the past five years I’ve helped support Henkel’s consumer and craftsmen brands as the creative manager on the consumer engagement team. Our internal team is focused on creating best in class content. As well as working closely to source and project manage relationships with external agencies and production partners.
In a prior life I focused on documentary and commercial film for the corporate and non-profit sectors at Goldfarb Weber Creative Media.
I’m familiar with the tools of the trade, I’m not a designer but know enough to be dangerous in the Adobe suite. I’m not a camera operator but can frame a product shot. Whether you need a project based producer, a licensed drone operator, someone to help cut interview content, b-roll selects, to book crews abroad, or just an extra body that knows his way around a set, I can make it happen.
I’ve traveled all over the States and abroad for my clients. Working on everything from investor relations and corporate communications pieces for Fortune 500 companies to non-profit storytelling.
I got my start as a creative at Marcus Thomas, a Cleveland based ad agency, focused on business development and account management for digital clients. Once upon a time I studied English and Philosophy too if that tells you anything about me.
Featured Work
The Work
Projects I'm proud of. And for each I played a role in making an impact for the client. Some as a producer/director, some as a line producer, some as a drone pilot. Each has a story. Ask me about them sometime.
Aerial Photography
UAV Pilot
Drones add production value at a fraction of the cost of traditional aerial photography. As a producer, I realized that I could bring more to my clients and my shoots as a licensed part 107 UAV pilot. Half the battle is understanding the legality of a shot, the other half is getting it. And making it look fantastic.
Drone photography, just like anything else in production is scalable. Be it a simple piece of signage and an exterior, a sweeping landscape, or a wide open f2.8 50mm lens on a Zenmuse X7 there is a drone for every job. I’ve shot on a number of different platforms and bring the experience needed to get the shot safely.
My everyday drone is a DJI Mavic 2 Pro. The old adage about the best camera being the one you have with you applies to aerial photography as well. This rig travels light, packs a punch in terms of image and footage quality, and can be in the air in minutes.
