I've been in television production ever since I realized in college that I really did NOT want to be an actor/waiter. After getting a BA in Theater, Theater Management with a minor in broadcasting, I went to a local community college to get some hands on experience. While I was there I worked at the PBS station on the school's campus. From there I did a stint at a Downriver Detroit newspaper in sa
les. Invaluable experience, BUT.... not my calling! I also worked at a local (to Raleigh) television station (WTVD) for a few years before I was recruited by a client of the station to work at their ad agency (Dusenbury and Alban). While employed as their Agency Producer, I produced over 150 commercials a year for a few years... which then lead to opening my own shop... Franklin Video, Inc. Over the years we've shot for national clients such as America's Most Wanted, A Current Affair, American Inventor, Mysteries of the Bible, McNeill Lehrer, American Academy of Family Physicians, Fonville Morrissey, Greenpeace, Habitat for Humanity, and countless others. We've produced regional and national commercials for clients such as Burger King and Factory Stores of America.... as well as local car dealers and just about everything in between. We've worked with home builders to produce marketing videos. We've written and produced training videos for companies such as The Orvis Company, Merck Pharmaceuticals, Hospira, Talecris Biotherapeutics, The Pantry, Spirit Aerosystems, Amarr Garage Doors, Bosch Siemens. We have travelled extensively for these clients and more. In recent years we've seen a lot more web based video come our way as well. It seems that if a message can be made in a video... we've done it! I Love this business... I get to learn something new all the time. Specialties
Customizing your message.. Matching your budget with the most effective production possible. It doesn't have to be expensive to be really really good!
