You don’t need another vendor. Here’s why I’m different.

Why partner with Bobby

Let’s skip the life story and get to what actually matters to you: can this guy help me solve my content problem?

I think the answer is yes. Here’s why.

Here's five reasons why.

1. Care – Whether you’re a global brand, an agency producer, or a nonprofit with a shoestring budget and a big story to tell, I show up the same way every time. Genuinely invested. Fully present. Committed to the work and to you from the first conversation to the final deliverable.

2. Confidence – Thirty years of creative work will teach you two things: know what you don’t know, and hire people who do. I bring hard-won experience to every project, the kind that only comes from running hundreds of productions, across every format, at every budget level. I’ve seen what can go wrong. I plan for it before it does.

3. Strategic Partnerships – Most producers show up when the camera rolls. I show up at the beginning, before the brief is written, before the budget is set, before anyone has decided what the project actually is. I help you define the why behind your content, the what that will serve your audience, and the how that makes it achievable. The production follows the strategy. Not the other way around.

4. Flexibility & Network – I’ve spent two decades building a network of world-class talent – cinematographers, editors, animators, sound designers, production coordinators – across every format and budget range. Whatever your project needs, I know who to call. And when things change on the fly (and they will), I know how to pivot without losing the a thread.

... and last but not least

5. AI & Innovation – The tools are changing fast and I stay on the leading edge of how AI is reshaping production. From accelerating script development and concept visualization, to streamlining post-production workflows, to building more efficient team operations, I bring these capabilities to every engagement. Not as a gimmick. As a genuine advantage for your project and your budget.

My creative life started in music – as a signed artist and working musician who learned early that the business side of creativity is just as important as the art itself. That lesson followed me through years of design work, and into film and video production where I’ve spent the last 20 years. I’ve produced commercials, documentaries, branded content, and episodic television. I’ve built production teams and in-house studios from scratch. I’ve co-founded two nonprofits and run one as Executive Director. Every chapter was training for the next one. What I offer now is the whole picture – strategic, operational, and creative, all in one partner.

The Process

Every engagement starts with a conversation, not a camera.

Before anything gets scheduled or budgeted, we spend time on the questions that actually matter: What are you trying to achieve? Who are you trying to reach? What does success look like – not just creatively, but for your organization?

From there, the process takes shape around your project. Here’s how it typically unfolds:

Concept and Visualization
This is where we get into the heart of your project. We chat about the original idea and nail down the “why” behind it all. What are we trying to achieve, and how do you picture the final product? Once we have that, we start sketching out some visuals to bring your ideas to life.
Not every project needs a full-blown script, but every video has visuals that need to be mapped out. If it makes sense for your project, we create a storyboard to outline key shots and moments. And if there’s a script involved, we fine-tune it alongside the storyboard to make sure everything works together creatively and intentionally.

Ah, budgets—the infamous “B” word. Surprisingly, I actually enjoy this part. It’s not about being strict; it’s about understanding what’s possible and planning wisely. I’ll walk you through the budgeting process with complete transparency, so we know exactly how to make the most of the funds available.
Now that we know what we’re aiming for and what resources we have, it’s time to find the right people and places to bring the vision to life. I work closely with casting directors, talent agencies, and location scouts to ensure that the talent and settings perfectly match your project’s vibe.

Now that we have determined budget and resources I can generate a cost benefit analysis based on presumed/desired income based on tangible and intangible benefits. This is important in certain situations because at the end of the day I want you see how our partnership is a win-win for all of us!

With our ideas, cast, and locations locked in, we set up a shooting schedule. This timeline guides us through production (and often post-production) so everyone’s on the same page and we stay on track.

This is where all the planning really pays off. During production, everything operates and comes together like a well-oiled machine. And yes, things will sometimes change – but with solid pre-production in place, we’re able to pivot quickly and efficiently. Whether we’re filming a two-camera interview with a sports icon, a VR studio production, or shooting on location in Italy (yes, please!), my goal is to get it right in camera… “fix it in post” isn’t my style!

Rough Edit
First up, our editor gathers all the footage and organizes it according to our shooting notes, script, and visual timeline. This rough cut gives us a first look at the project’s shape, and it might take anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks, depending on the scope.
If your project calls for special effects or motion graphics, this is where we start building them. Whether it’s tweaking green screen footage, designing lower thirds and title cards, simulating explosions or sparks, or even creating 3D elements, we prepare everything for the next step.

Sound is a huge part of the overall experience. Sometimes it’s as simple as cleaning up background noise, and other times it’s about creating a full-blown soundscape for, say, a space battle scene. With sound design, every little detail counts – thats why theres an Oscar category for it; it’s that important!

Once all the visual and sound elements are in place, we lock the edit. This means the timing, flow, and scene lengths are set, and any additional elements are just added on to enhance the final look of your project.
If your project needs a voice-over or some Automated Dialogue Replacement (ADR), we usually handle that after the edit is locked. This way, we avoid any last-minute changes and ensure everything fits perfectly.

Now we polish the project. During color grading, we fine-tune the visuals to achieve the exact look you’re going for – whether that’s a vibrant, matte finish or a high-contrast, gritty style. At the same time, an audio engineer works on mixing all the sound elements, whether it’s a simple stereo mix or a full 7.1 Dolby Atmos surround sound setup, so everything sounds just right.

Finally, we wrap everything up. Deliverables can vary widely depending on the project. Whether you need to ensure that you have the highest quality for YouTube streaming or need to process a Copyright Report for your film to file with the distributor, I have the experience to make sure it get’s done!
