Brian Thomas - Sizzle Reel
Watch this one minute video to see how hiring an all-in-one Producer/Editor, Writer, and Motion Graphic Artist is the most efficient and cost effective way to create content
PRODUCING/EDITING
What does Brian Thomas do?
I transform large amounts of raw footage into clear, concise, dynamic and stylish videos with no direction. Being able to dump all of your raw footage onto one person who can create content from concept to completion is a game-changer for your department’s workflow and output.
No one saw her coming
Sizzle Reel created for StreetSmart Productions to sell documentary to HBO Films, Netflix and other platforms.
youth farmer's market
This corporate video demonstrates how one person can turn a low budget project/concept into a high-end, fast paced story.
MOTION GRAPHICS
How does Brian Thomas do it?
These two videos show how using Adobe Aftereffects to create animated text, logo moves and branded show opens is the key to having videos stand out. The contrast in styles between corporate explainer videos and national network television shows how varied my work with motion graphics is.
LexisNexis - Securities Education
This explainer video shows how the use of bullet points, clip art and even pdf files can add interest to any subject, including arcane law education.
motion graphics compilation
This compilation of branded opens, lower thirds and motion graphics I conceived and created were a driving force in making the Maury show an iconic flagship show for NBC syndication.
WRITING
How else does Brian Thomas do it?
These two videos show my experience in writing video scripts that take complex information and simplify it. Voiceover copy that is clear and moves the hero’s journey and/or the story forward with the least copy possible while still having a sense of flair is key to engagement.
Copywriting Compilation
This compilation shows how my ability to write VO copy that leads the viewer into soundbites removes confusion, build anticipation and greatly increase engagement.
complete streets initiative
This script is an example of how I can take broad and complex information from an unknown organization and make the subject very clear to a new audience in one viewing.
