Video KILLEDthe Paragraph

One filmed interview becomes a month of short-form video on your LinkedIn. By the time a buyer books a call, they already know you and trust you.

The Process

How It Works

You show up once a month for a filmed conversation. I handle the planning, the filming, and the editing.

Step 01

Plan

We start with a short call to map the thought leadership you are already sitting on. Recent wins, the opinions you hold strongly, the questions buyers keep asking you. You bring the expertise, and I turn it into talking points and a shot list for the shoot.

About

I have been creating short-form content since 2019, across very different kinds of work: my own personal content, video editing tutorials, an education channel I grew to 230,000 followers, content for psychedelic-assisted treatment centers around the world, and music videos in LA for major-label artists like Diplo, Polo G, Jutes, Kylie Cantrall, and the All American Rejects. In all, my work has driven more than 200 million views across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.

I tend to catch these waves early. When short-form took over the music industry, I was one of the producers artists in LA relied on for it. That same shift is now reaching the founder world, and almost no one serious is on it yet.
