About Will M.

In a world of abundance, my years of experience in the industry allow me to create content that stands out. I began as a Director/Producer committed to understanding the message, emotion, and strategy applied to the creative. Applying the truth of documentary with the polish of cinema. As the content landscape evolved, so has my perspective. Today, I possess an extensive understanding of all creative disciplines with a T-shaped focus on film and motion. I lead new business pitches while crafting a compelling story and advocate for every campaign including a multi-channel approach. I understand how all the pieces fit together and can lead conversations around what content will drive a bigger impact on a client’s business. I enjoy contributing to the strategic development of an assignment and leading a group of cross-disciplinary teams. My experience spans a wide foundation of integrated campaigns, social content programmes and B2B-focused films. At the heart of my approach is curiosity paired with a commitment to creating something new every time. I specialize in getting to the emotional core of campaigns through telling stories with striking visuals, and dynamic images – ultimately creating a visceral audience experience.

About Michael W.

I've been working in TV, Media & Tech for 10 years, predominantly focused on video production & post production operations. In that time I've grown from being a Production Assistant to a Supervisor, overseeing Production Managers & Post Production Managers at Shopify. In addition to having different roles, I've also worked on a variety of media formats, from TV series to film productions to online social content. At Shopify, I've been able to build the foundation for Producers to scale out their productions so we could publish content at a faster rate. In the past three years alone myself and team have been a part of 300+ original videos & associating social assets. This content ranges from TV/Film Series’, short/medium length documentaries, online advertisements, YouTube series’, social & educational content. Some of the highlights in my career are, building a video production operation at a tech company that had no experience producing content (resourcing, tooling, budgeting, managing, etc). Constructing a media server to house all our footage & creating a media asset management system to easily tag, search & find all these assets to reuse & repurpose. In short, I've had many different experiences in my career, which has allowed me to build a wide range of skills, on a variety of video formats. I feel I am able to wear multiple hats, and contribute to productions in many different ways.
