cinematography + animation + post
Clean | Efficient | Flexible
iMed Design, inc. is the official company name for my independent production and design work. For 40 years, I’ve been shooting, animating, editing, producing, writing and making the coffee. I worked with direct clients, ad agencies, broadcast and cable networks, national marketing firms, Fortune 500 corporations, state/federal government agencies and local mom-and-pops. I value relationships and satisfaction of the work over budget, so I’ve built my business model to be extremely efficient and flexible. Most of my clients have been with me for many years - sometimes decades.
I get hired just as often to provide individual services as I do to create end-to-end productions. This ain’t my first rodeo. I love what I do. Hopefully it shows. And sorry, but I don’t do weddings.

Cinematography
I specialize in documentary-style commercial and industrial acquisition but with a fine art sensibility. My shoots have taken me inside nuclear power plants, on top of chemical rail cars, to military jet factories, on the track at Daytona, just to name a few. From emergency response scenarios, assembly processes, to interviews and green screens, it’s all in a day’s work.

Animation & Design
I started my career as an illustrator and designer. It’s in my DNA. I’ve since developed my toolset to include motion graphics, character animation, 3D modeling/animation, original illustration, flat art explainers, whiteboard drawings, special effects, rotoscoping and image repair.
Green screen, 3D and moGFX TV spot for sbX (San Bernardino, CA).
Post Production
The edit session is more than just putting pictures in order and laying in some music. It’s where the story unfolds. Whether I’m assembling the words, footage and graphics I created, or crafting the story from client-provided assets, the challenge is the same. And it’s one of the coolest parts of my job.

Industrial Photography
I actually started out as a photographer. Much of my motion bookings involves acquiring stills as well, but I’m just as likely to get booked for my industrial/corporate photography services.

Print Design and Production
Since all of my skills and tools are transferable to print design, I also create numerous print projects for my clients, including brochures, product spec sheets, posters, trade show signage and more.
Complete branding design, production and post for Six3 Tile (Lancaster, SC).
Brand Development
Putting it all together - this is what I enjoy most - working with start-ups or established companies to help create a branded personality across all media - broadcast, online, social media, business documents, trade show booth content and print.
