Be on the lookout, my new website drops soon! ✨

The disadvantage to doing self portraits is there is no one to stop you from doing stuff like this.

Coming very soon.... Our little video production company, Jess Pfilms will be launching a rebrand in the coming weeks. We've spent the last 9+ months working on this rebrand, honing in on our strengths, philosophy, processes, target markets, and more to center our vision for this big shift in our company.

We've put in the unglamorous work of standardizing processes, creating more automation in our customer experiences, and creating workflows that will make the process of video production clear, organized, and strategic.

We can't thank enough the brand designers, copywriters, web designers, and friends, who helped us make this possible.

We can't wait to share more with you soon! For now, we're just popping the bubbly (and adding in orange juice!)

What have we been up to? Lots!

This past week we had the absolute pleasure of working on a virtual graduation for HerCampus.com celebrating the class of 2021!

Virtual events are a really great way to be able to incorporate lots of different talent that otherwise wouldn't be able to make it to a live event. We heard from the CEO of Bumble, Tan France, Senator Elizabeth Warren, Katie Couric, and Diane Von Furstenberg to name a few!

When you think of a videographer, what comes to mind? Is it someone creative and artsy who can't communicate their vision but asks you to blindly trust them? Is it someone who spews technical gear specs at you when all you want to know is how it will affect your video?⠀
⠀
Video is not and should not be a black box. When you work with me, I'll go into as much technical detail as you'd like, but I also know that most clients don't want to deal with the technical, they want to deal with the end product.⠀
⠀
Art is not alchemy, it has clear steps. Maybe it's just me, but I really hate jumping into something without understanding what's actually going to be happening, whether that's a meeting or a project, or a significant financial investment. You deserve to know each step of the process, what's expected of you, and what's expected of me.⠀
⠀
I'm making those milestones clear with my clients so they have confidence each step of the way.

Looking back on some shots from 2020. 📽✨

One of my favorite parts of running my own small business is I get to work with so many different clients.

From 💋 makeup artists to 🪴gardeners to 🏗construction consultants to ✌️yoga instructors to 🎸 musicians. The world is full of beautiful stories and I’m so lucky I get to tell them.

Clementine & Clove is the name of my new wedding brand. Love is sweet like a clementine and warm like a clove.

The second announcement is that this is only one of TWO names I’ll be unveiling. Clementine & clove is my new wedding brand and my new corporate brand is getting a new name too! More to come on that layer.

Now just to celebrate and enjoy sweet alliteration 🧡

Happy Monday! ⁠⠀
Today I picked up some lipstick on a Cyber Monday deal and it reminded me of this amazing day-to-night transformation video that created. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What I love about videos like these is that they are both so fun to watch while showcasing my client's skills. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What's your favorite makeup secret? ⁠⠀

Happy Small Business Saturday!

This is a video I made a bit ago for highlighting how easy it is to sign up for their classes.

As a woman small business owner myself, days like today are a really good chance to take time and appreciate how dang hard small business owners work to make their dreams a reality. I have the very special honor to be able to work with small business owners and to tell their story and to highlight what makes them amazing every day. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
When I launched my business in 2018, I promised myself that I would work with women business owners whenever I had the chance to. And it turns out, there are so many amazing female-run small businesses out there, so it hasn't been hard. I'm very proud that over 90% of my clients are female-led small businesses and that I get to see every day what these amazing, inventive, hardworking dreamers are capable of. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Support small business whenever you can! ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What you can do to support me is to tell your friends getting married about me and if you know any businesses or tech companies who need a video, be sure to refer me!

We're so excited to announce that we'll be rebranding very soon! The name and brand of Jess Pfilms has been amazing for years and we're excited to launch into a new chapter for our business.

We had so much fun making a Halloween-themed video for The Acton Food Forest Project. Just something to give you a smile and cheer up your timelines!
What will you be dressing up as for Halloween?

The sister of the bride and maid of honor at Kelly and Ryan's wedding delivered a toast that still warms my heart when I listen to it: ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
"If you know them now, I’m sure you’ll agree with me when I say that Kelly and Ryan truly bring out the best in one another. Their relationship is grounded in a deep respect and what they each bring to the partnership brings a profound balance…⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I know that my sister will never be lonely, she’ll always have someone to rely on, and she’ll laugh every single day” ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What I love about filming weddings is that it's a curious balance between seeing a deeply personal moment in someone's life, and getting to see them be celebrated at their absolute best. That combination makes me feel like I've known each couple for a lifetime, as I hear story after story of the ways each person in the couple has touched the lives of those around them, and how they've grown together. It's really something I wouldn't trade for the world. ⁠⠀

I'm gonna be the man who wakes up next you" ⁠⠀

When Josh and Elizabeth got married, Josh surprised her by singing "I would walk 500 miles" and it was one of the sweetest things you've ever seen. ⁠⠀

We had so much fun with The Acton Food Forest Project dreaming up a fun way to teach people about gardening! Adding infusions of comedy into your content is a surefire way to get tons of engagement and most importantly, smiles!

As brick and mortar businesses are trying to figure out how to stay open, being clear about what they're doing to stay covid-safe is so so important to communicate. 4 Corners Yoga + Wellness has so many measures in place and it's clear the extreme thought, care, and dedication to wellness that they have in their policies. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Their space is beautiful and kind and I'm so glad I got to highlight them. ⁠⠀

When I plan shoots with clients, I always encourage them to squeeze as much value and content out of our time together. With this shoot, the main event was filming my client doing makeup on several models, but we wanted to create extra "instagrammable content too". ⁠
⁠
So we brainstormed on this video (and several others I'll be posting later), and what I love about it is that it positions my client as an expert in her field while also adding value. Content marketing is huge these days for a good reason. ⁠
⁠
To create the title, I did a simple trim paths animation on the rectangle and an alpha matte on the text, but I think it creates a nice effect of bolstering the effeminate brand while also seeming authoritative. ⁠
⁠
To capture the b-roll, we had to do intense scheduling. We had 17 videos we shot that day in all, so for each video I created a shot list and plugged into the schedule where we were going to capture each shot. ⁠
⁠
It's amazing how much work goes into a video like this and it was all worth it! did an amazing job and brings so much value to her platform.
