AN AUdio-Visual Life
Our story
Hi, I’m Brien and this is my story. For forty years in Milwaukee, I ran a number of multi-media and and video production companies for who I worked with many people on staff who made me look good to our clients.
I was born in New York City 73 years ago, and spent my first eight years soaking up the 1950’s atmosphere of Washington Heights. Then I got sick with rheumatic fever and my parents moved us (my brother, sister, me, them) to a nice house in East Brunswick, New Jersey. I went to Marquette University in Milwaukee and stayed. Eventually I got married, had a son, and started my businesses.
I moved back to New Jersey 12 years ago to be closer to family, including my son who lives in NYC. I finished out my production career herewith many major meeting and video efforts for long-standing clients, including Walgreens corporate in Chicago.
Nearly two years ago, I was diagnosed with myelofibrosis, a blood disease that kills red blood cells and was recommended a bone marrow transplant. I had that a year ago last October and fully recovered.
I now specialize in Tribute Videos, my first love, as that’s where I got my start back in my slideshow days.
I’ve also written a book on how to produce Tribute Videos, which can be found here.
