About Brighton West Video Video Production company in Portland, United States
After two years hed had it with mall parking lots so he became the IT guy at one of the worlds largest architectural firms. One that designed stadiums. Much cooler than parking lots. Brighton honed his IT chops there for five years.
Outside of work Brighton was making films – lots of them. Many of his friends in Atlanta worked for CNN and made short videos on the side for fun. That was Brightons introduction to filmmaking.
The film festival took place during the pre-YouTube so IT dork that he was Brighton created a website that was his attempt at YouTube. It ran painfully slow and the videos were tiny. But it was undeniably cool because people could watch films that their friends made online.
One of the benefits of being the film guy was that Brighton got to meet a lot of people. And one night he met a stunning woman sitting on the couch in his living room. A year later they got married in Key West Florida.
Brighton continued making films as a hobby. He made a documentary about the Hawthorne bridge operators another one on immigration and another about a tiny newspaper editor who broke a huge story about a corrupt commercial real estate owner. One of his favorite films was a documentary he made about his uncle Jerry who rode 100000 miles on his bicycle before his 72nd birthday. Brighton called it ’Next Stop the Moon.’ It was shown at a film festival in Portland and Uncle Jerry got to join Brighton on stage for an audience Qamp;A session after the film.
Brightons most recent creative project was a parody of the hit TV show Portlandia. His show was set in the unmistakably suburban city of Vancouver Washington just on the other side of the Columbia river from Portland. His first episode has been viewed over 200000 times.
Along the way people kept asking Brighton ’How did you make these films?’ and ’How did you get so many people to watch them?’ So that got Brighton thinking again about helping people get their message out there. He realized that he felt a particular affinity for coaches. Pretty much every coach Brighton has met is decidedly positive and really committed to helping their fellow humans. And online video is a great match for coaches. So Brighton married these together in a business that he can operate from anywhere.
So thats the long and the short of how Brighton got to where he is today.
