Deluxe Corporation - Banker's Dashboard
Deluxe, once known as "the check people", have found their business changing as people and businesses embrace new methods of payment. Checks are still quite big, but their products and services have expanded considerably, including into banking software. In this video, we took a small crew to Atlanta to interview bankers' testimonials about a Deluxe product called Banker's Dashboard. It was fun to create a video where we could see the bankers in their work environment, putting the product to good use. |

Lower Minnesota River Watershed District - 60th Anniversary
One of the things I love about my job is the chance to meet new people and learn new things. Before taking on the project of tell this story, I had a LOT to learn about watershed districts. For example, what are they? Thankfully, I had a client in Della Young of Young Environmental Consulting Group who was happy to school me. Big thanks, too, go to Steve Woods, formerly of Freshwater, who thought of me and invited me to apply for the assignment. It was a highlight of the year to celebrate their 60th anniversary with a video. |

Restoration Counseling & Community Services
I was honored to work with Jennie, Paul and their team at RCCS to create this powerful introduction to their lives' work--giving hope to those fighting addiction and a challenging past. Thanks to those alumni and staff who candidly shared their stories and showed us what was possible, with good humor and warmth. And thanks to singer/songwriter, Erin McCarley, for letting us use her inspiration song, "I Can Be Somebody". This project has indeed been one of my satisfying, thanks to all of you. |

Vision Loss Resources - 100th Anniversary
My wife, Pam, and I have both volunteered for VLR, an organization serving the blind and visually disabled in Minneapolis. So when it was time to celebrate their 100th Anniversary, I was proud to create this video featuring several of the men and women who have benefited from their service, support and skills building. The thought of going blind is terrifying for most people. But meeting and interviewing folks who have put their lives back together after this devastating setback is reassuring, hopeful and inspirational. Thanks to CEO Kate Grathwol for inviting me to tell the VLR story and celebrate 100 years. |

OBGYN West - daVinci Robotic Surgery
OBGYN West is a successful clinic of obstetricians and gynecologist in the west metro of the Twin Cities. In addition to a series of videos we created for their website, we also helped to update their look and their online presence with an updated website, new ads and bios for the doctors that highlighted not just their CV's, but their distinct personalities as well. This particular video highlights their expertise with daVinci Robotic Surgery, an amazing minimally invasive way to solve complex health issues with tiny incisions and, best of all, much shorter recovery times. |

Deluxe - SwitchAgent
This is one of my favorite corporate training videos because it's equal parts learning and laughter. Bank employees told Deluxe they were chuckling throughout--but that they also learned plenty about SwitchAgent, a Deluxe product that makes it easier for consumers to switch their financial institutions. This video also features many of the real live employees of Deluxe working alongside a couple of exceptional (and hilarious) actors. If I could write and produce more videos like this, that would make me very happy. (So please call me. Let's make your internal videos more fun to watch!) |

Building Trades Credit Union - "Salutes" Videos
Back in the 90's, while working with People's Bank, I was fortunate enough to meet Andrea Ferkingstad, the bank's marketing director. She quickly became a favorite client because of her intelligence, her great sense of humor and her approachable vision for her client. Lucky for me, when Andrea moved to BTCU, she sought me and my team out so we could keep working together. This video is one of a series of "Salutes" to different building trades. BTCU only represents union construction workers and one way we thank them for their business is to highlight what they do in all our messaging, including these videos. |
