My name is Kevin Balmer, aka Diggable Monkey. I've been in the freelance business of video production for the past 13 years and I've witnessed the vast evolution of the video media landscape in that time. I've done mostly short story documentaries with a good dose of commercial work. My company brand is heavily associated with the arts and design arena, with a bit of subscription-based online course development. The last few projects I've completed were with the Oregon Historical Society, the Regional Arts and Culture Council, and the NW Blacksmiths Association. I've also done some storytelling video work with commercial developers and architectural firms here in Portland. I can execute on all levels of the business from negotiating and securing the work to the production and delivery of the end product. I would eventually like to lead a production team and make inspirational stories to help save the planet. I've currently just finished my third year as a full-time Media Producer at Arcimoto, a three-wheel electric EV manufacturer in Eugene, OR.

I’m passionate about what I do. What I do best is tell a good story; it’s who I am. I’ve been working with companies, in the PNW, producing stories ranging from brand storytelling about specialty coffees to profiles of young women seeking advice from their mentors. I bring three things to the job: Directing, shooting, editing, and producing content for broadcast and web Experience in corporate brand storytelling for companies like Microsoft, Concur and Expedia working with internal and external partners at various levels including C level executives. Proven success of storytelling for Starbucks and BECU working with creative teams at HQ and with partners in the field. This experience has taught me to be flexible on any type of assignment, interact with team members, and deliver quality work. My passion is visual storytelling. No matter how big or small it may be. Whether that means shooting content about coffee, or editing a sizzle reel for Microsoft. Creating compelling stories that impact a business is what I strive to achieve on every project.

I'm a filmmaker and video producer currently working for Grist, a Seattle-based media non-profit that focuses on environmental news and commentary. My focus is on social issues and its intersection with a wide range of topics like the environment, food, justice, immigration, culture, gender and race. Having reported from India, Singapore, South Africa and now the U.S., I strive to bring different and underrepresented perspectives to the fore. My stories are predominantly character-driven, using one compelling voice to paint a larger picture. Prior to Grist, I was an intern at Vox.com, where I produced videos for their politics and social team. I'm a recent graduate of Medill, Northwestern University, with a master's in journalism. My focus was on documentary filmmaking and web videos. Apart from my work at Medill, I've shot and edited a 3-part series with three others in Johannesburg, South Africa, on the two waves of Chinese immigrants to the country and the issues they face.

Jesse Andrew Clark has spent the past fourteen years honing his visual style in cinematography. Both a creative force and technical mastermind behind the camera, Jesse has taught filmmaking workshops in northern and central California, including the Esalen Institute and UC Berkeley. Jesse has worked with Sundance-winning director Frederick Marx in honing his new feature film as well as National Geographic stereographer Peter Chang in order to hone his timelapse technique. In addition, Jesse has produced big-brand event content (Facebook, Instagram, Samsung, Whole Foods) and thus brings with him an understanding of 'getting the shot' under changing conditions. Although most comfortable behind the camera, Jesse isn't hesitant to get his hands dirty when someone needs a hand. He specializes in motion-control timelapse 4K imaging & post-production and also is an editor, colorist, and motion graphic artist. His true passion lies in service of story through moving picture.

With work at nearly 1 million views, I seek to create irresistible invitations with compelling and empowering imagery to inspire people into new possibilities in their body, their communities and the caring for their world. I'm also a lecturer at the University of Washington on narrative and filmmaking in the College of Human Centered Design. From crossing the Caribbean Sea by yacht, to backpacking Central America while getting my Spanish corrected, to taking divers into Hawaiian lava tubes, to climbing Mt. Rainier, I've been lucky to experience discovery by captaining teams of adventurers. Working with a production team that shares a creative vision is a natural extension of adventure and discovery. Being on-location, on-set and on-point is where I'm delighted, curious and focused. I live a short walk to the salt water of Puget Sound, and a short drive to the forests of the Cascade Mountains in Seattle, Washington with the greatest adventure of my life, my family: Laura, my wife and our sons, Seamus & Barrett.
