/ Brad Hilton /
A creative lead helping to guide brands, companies, stories, and people forward, helping to create connections and build empathy across worlds.
The Heart of the matter
Through the years I have learned what separates me from other creatives, designers, photographers, shooters, editors, is my ability to find a way to connect and humanize the elements. I live to build stories, create visions and helping bring those to life. Whether a product, a company, an organization or a single voice. I help to guide ideas and people to connect and leave the world better than it was.
All the things
I happen to have grown up with a lot of different hobbies — sports, outdoors lover, road trip expert, musician, master builder (legos), DIYer, photographer, gamer, retailer, family business expert (ha!)— and all of these hobbies and skills have given an incredible outlook and knowledge on so many different parts of this world. It has helped keep me grounded and my work authentic.
Humans First
We always approach our work with the goal of connecting with our audiences on the most basic emotional levels. Hope, happiness, frowns smiles and laughs, tears of joy and of sorrow, these emotions are what make viewing, consuming and connecting with other people and companies worth the effort. We are all human and we strive to remind ourselves of our humanity every day.
Creativity
At my core and what drives me is the rush from an idea, not just the ones that come to me when I'm singing in the shower —which according to my wife are way too long— but the ones you have to work for, that are pulled and stretched and torn apart, that form this new thought singularity. As if the idea wants to be found and shared. That is one of life's great treasures, creativity with intent.
Oh, The Places I've Been

“Brad is an extremely hard working and multi-talented. He has an understanding of the business that allows him to not only be creative, but sensible. It’s rare to find someone as talented and grounded in the real world, and I look forward to working with him again in the future.”
Andrea FaciniChief Product Officer, Active Network
Brad is incredibly creative and just fantastic at what he does. His command of the technical requirements for video and design is extraordinary. He is also fun to work with and always come through, no matter how difficult the assignment or how condensed the time frame to get it done. I always enjoy working with him, and I know the final project will be brilliant.

“Brad’s work is simply top notch. His videos are not only eye-catching but always strategically on target. As a copywriter, I enjoy working with Brad because he’s fun to brainstorm and collaborate with, thinks outside the box, understands the importance of copy to a creative project, and delivers the very best product every time. Any creative would enjoy working with such an excellent storyteller.”
