GALAS & FUNDRAISERS
Gala Videographer
in Los Angeles
Turn your gala into the film that tells your story all year.
Galas, awards nights and fundraisers across Los Angeles and the South Bay.
Your gala is the biggest night of your year. It's your biggest push to raise money, and the one night most of your supporters are in one room. The people on stage are telling the story of your mission. Then the night ends, and most of it is gone or stuck on a hard drive.
Most gala videos are nice shots set to music. I let your speakers tell the story. With two cameras, the whole night covered and sound from the house board, I pull the best line or two from each speech and put them in an order that tells your mission's story, from day one to today. I shoot and edit it myself, so you deal with one person from the first call to final delivery.
Based in the South Bay. I film wherever your event is, from the Long Beach, Los Angeles and Anaheim convention centers and beyond. Fully insured, with insurance papers ready for your venue.

California Women's Law Center, Pursuit of Justice Awards
They asked for one camera in the back of the room to record the speeches at their gala at the Skirball Cultural Center in Los Angeles. I pitched two cameras, the whole night and a short film made from the speeches. A year later, it's the first thing people see on their awards page, and it plays on their homepage.
Citizens Private Bank, BeachLife Festival
I covered the Citizens VIP deck sponsorship at BeachLife Festival in Redondo Beach, California, for the bank's social channels.
