Brian Ford is an award-winning creative producer and cross-platform visual media artist based in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Ford’s robust background in video production and post-production has led him to document stories across the globe; from the post-industrial struggles of Detroit to the post-conflict transformations of rural Colombia to the restoration of coral reefs in the South Pacific.

Clients and partners include National Geographic, Discovery, Smithsonian, A&E, History, PBS, Amazon Prime, Amazon AWS, Adobe, Alphabet, the Universities of Michigan, Texas, and California, and hundreds of grassroots organizations peppering the continents.

Technically conversant from field to final finishing, Brian thrives when helping those with good intentions who find themselves facing seemingly insurmountable odds and challenges.
