About Brian Goad

I’m an award-winning video producer and editor specializing in storytelling, digital content, and broadcast work for major brands and media partners. I focus on content that’s direct and precise while still engaging the audience, whether the material is internal, external, or part of a larger campaign.My work spans documentaries, branded campaigns, social media content, and corporate messaging. I often handle projects end-to-end—managing budgets, locations, and talent; developing interview questions and scripts; directing on set; and leading the edit through client review, final mastering, and delivery. This gives teams a single lead who can keep the project organized, on schedule, and aligned with the goals we set at the start.I’ve produced and edited content for Google, Ford, Coca-Cola, the National Association of REALTORS®, NBC, PBS, Big Ten Network, and several ad agency partners. These projects have included internal announcements, executive communications, brand storytelling, and event coverage.If you’d like to connect, collaborate, or discuss upcoming projects, I’m always open to a conversation.
