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.
