Filming the Future of American Production

Every video and photograph across hadrian.co — hero films, factory-floor documentation, recruiting content — directed, shot, and produced end to end.

BRIEF
Hadrian needed website visuals that matched the story it was telling — rebuilding American manufacturing — without slowing down factories that run around the clock.

APPROACH
Shot on active factory floors around live machining: a hero film for the homepage, supporting video for every section of the site, and a full photo library of machines, technicians, and facilities.

ROLE
Producer and director; every video and photograph on hadrian.co, planned, shot, and delivered end to end.

ETCHED.AI Case study — content partner

BRIEF
Etched needed a single production to cover everything from company headshots to investor-facing proof of progress without pulling engineering time away from actually building the hardware.

APPROACH
Ran a four-day on-site shoot covering headshots for the entire team, editorial portraits of the founders, macro product shots of the chips themselves, candid documentary-style footage of the office for ongoing video content, and a livestream for investors to see the company's progress firsthand.

ROLE
Producer and director; planned and ran all four days solo, from headshots through livestream, as the single point of contact end to end.

BRIEF
PsiQuantum needed social content that did more than fill a feed something that could keep investors and the industry convinced of momentum while the company continued raising.

APPROACH
Helped strategize PsiQuantum's social media content and edited the short-form series myself, shaping what got posted and how it was cut, not just executing someone else's plan.

ROLE
Social media strategist and editor — owned both the content strategy and the edit, tied directly to how the company presented its progress to investors.

BRIEF
UXDX needed a crew they could rebook every year without re-vetting full-day session capture, speaker interviews, and coverage that could be repackaged multiple ways after the event.

APPROACH
Directed on-site event coverage across sessions and interviews, delivering a full conference recap alongside 8 shorter, speaker-specific cutdowns, one for each key workshop speaker so each session had its own standalone piece, not just a slice of the highlight reel.

ROLE
Lead producer, coordinating coverage across multiple simultaneous tracks each year and structuring delivery around both the full recap and the individual speaker edits.
