Brett Simmons
@brettsimmons
I write, direct, produce, and edit film, television, and brand content.
What I'm looking for
I've spent more than 20 years creating film, television, commercial, social, and marketing content. I currently run Outpost Post Production, providing freelance editorial services across film, TV, commercials, social media marketing, and brand marketing.
At Taco Bell, I produced and directed brand video content while supervising post-production and editing internal, external, and marketing work. Before that, I edited brand content across broadcast, social media, and internal messaging as Senior Editor and Post-Production Supervisor.
I've written, directed, and produced projects for The CW Network, NBCUniversal, Screen Media Ventures, Flower Films, and After Dark Films. My credits include directing and producing episodes of Pandora, and writing/directing feature films including You Might Be The Killer, Animal, The Monkey's Paw, and Husk.
I'm passionate about effective storytelling, visual expression, fearless collaboration, and continuing to learn, grow, and innovate. I hold a BFA in Writing/Directing for Film and Television and am certified in Final Cut Pro X and Adobe Premiere.
