Results

Proof, not promises.

1,000,000+ views on a single client reel.

A reel I concepted, shot, and edited outperformed everything the client had ever posted. Attention is a craft. It can be engineered.

0 to 30,000 followers in months.

I took a Livermore cabinet shop's page from nothing to 30K followers with consistent, entertaining content. A local shop became a known name.

Costco keeps coming back.

One project became repeat brand films, and word of mouth that keeps spreading inside the company. When the work is right, it sells itself.

Services

Ways we can work together.

Brand Story Film

A cinematic, documentary-style film that makes people feel your company: your story, your people, your culture. The kind of film that plays at a conference, lives on your homepage, and does the selling for you.

  • Two shoot days: a full day of interviews, a full day of cinematic B-roll
  • Pro lighting and audio built for clean, consistent interviews
  • Full documentary-style edit with color grading, sound design, and music
  • We shape the story together, so the final film feels intentional and true to you

Growth Content

A done-for-you content engine for brands that want to show up consistently and grow. I film with you, edit everything, and turn a couple of shoot days into a steady stream of short-form video built for visibility and authority, not just views.

  • Two on-location filming days every month
  • A dedicated edit to batch out a month of short-form content
  • High-volume video built for consistent daily and weekly posting
  • You look and sound like yourself, not a corporate ad
Monthly retainer

  • Up to 3 hours of on-location coverage
  • Smooth gimbal and natural handheld for a dynamic, in-the-moment feel
  • Select audio: speeches, reactions, ambient sound
  • A polished 60 to 90 second highlight recap with color and music

EJ, filmmaker in the East Bay
About

Hi, I'm EJ.

I'm a filmmaker in the East Bay, and my whole job comes down to one thing: making people look and feel great on camera.

That's what clients hire me for the first time. What keeps them around is that I'm easy to work with, I go above and beyond without being asked, and I care whether the video actually works: gets watched, gets shared, gets remembered. Not just whether it looks pretty.

If you've been burned by videographers who overcomplicate everything or disappear after delivery, we'll get along great.

Process

What working together looks like.

1 Call

A free 15-minute call. You tell me about the business. I tell you honestly whether video can move the needle, and what I'd make.

2 Plan

I handle the concept, locations, interview questions, and schedule. You get a simple plan and a date.

3 Shoot

You show up and be yourself. I make you look great. That part's my job.

4 Deliver

A clean, cinematic result, on time. Need it fast? Rush delivery is available.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What does it cost?

It depends on scope, so I quote after we talk. Brand films are priced per project, growth content runs as a monthly retainer, and event work is quoted per event. The free call is where we figure out what actually fits. If the budget isn't there yet, I'll tell you straight and point you somewhere useful.

How fast can you deliver?

Standard turnaround is agreed up front and I hit it. Rush and same-day delivery are available when the moment demands it.

Do you shoot stills too?

Yes, alongside video. Headshots, on-location portraits, and product or detail shots taken the same day as a shoot. If stills are the main thing you need, say so on the call and I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit.

Where do you work?

I'm based in the East Bay and cover the whole Bay Area. Travel beyond that is absolutely on the table. Let's talk.

I hate being on camera. Is that a problem?

It's the most common thing I hear, and it's genuinely my specialty. My whole reputation is built on making people look and feel great on camera. You'll be surprised.

Do you do one-off videos or ongoing work?

Both. Brand films are typically per project. Growth content works best as an ongoing rhythm. That's how the results above happened.

Let's make something that works.

Tell me a little about your business. I'll reply within one business day, and the first call is free.
