About me
Hey there, I’m Brad; a semi-colon loving, Midwestern-born filmmaker with a passion for tellingstories. First and foremost, I have always considered myself a storyteller, and my chosen
medium has always been film. My career began at the young age of 13, with a mini-dv
camcorder my friends and I would use, rewinding the tape in-camera to create our masterpieces on the move.
Professionally, I have travelled the world shooting for major networks such as Discovery, Nat
Geo, AMC, ESPN, HBO, Netflix, Showtime and WGN. I have also worked as an editor with
brands such as Lexus, Ketel One, Guinness, Vimeo, Annie’s and Red Bull on everything from
national campaigns to short indie docs to internal promos.
As a contract Camera Operator, AC and Grip, I have worked with every industry-standard
camera, lens, lighting package and grip truck of the past 10 years. I feel confident with just
about any camera in my hands, and I love to collaborate with my peers and bring additional
opinions into each shot design. I have also edited in a fast-paced, rigid, deadline-driven
environment and am well-versed in what it takes after the shoot to get things delivered on time.
As part of a four-man editing team creating a 20-episode series for Curiosity Stream, I excelled
in the collaborative environment and was given the ownership over my shows to manage the
process from rough cut to delivery.
As a corporate filmmaker, I get the opportunity to create entire films from concept to publishing
with creative freedom. I work hand in hand with clients to create scripts, shotlists, schedules and
storyboards. Then translate those documents into hired talent, secured locations, signed
releases, a well-fed crew, rental gear and beautiful footage for the editor. As that editor, I
manage the entire post-production process. As the production company owner, I’m the one who stays up all night when mistakes are made and deadlines must be hit.
Looking forward to speaking with you further,
Brad Johnson
