Director, Photographer, DP/CameraOperator Content creator My mother was gifted a brownie camera by her brother prior to my having been born. It was then she began documenting every waking moment of life, and I was soon to follow. One of my earliest memories is of a light so bright it seemed like the sun shining straight into my eyes causing a bright start into this world. I now know that was the ‘movie light’ for her 8mm film camera. In High school, I thought taking photos and movies of everything was normal, and was often made fun of for it, until my classmates saw the prints then all wanted copies for themselves. I was an aspiring musician, taking my lunchtime to practice on a piano I didn’t have at home, and stayed after school everyday to do the same. To avoid advanced Algebra (I hated school) I was offered to join the Television department for our township in South Jersey/suburban Philadelphia, since it was based out of our high school. I became a broadcast camera operator and newscaster for a semester, and have held a camera ever since. It started out of high school with shooting weddings and events for a local photographer and photo lab I worked with while going to school for music. Then was hired to shoot for the school. Afterwards,, I spent some years as a photo assistant and digital tech to some of the top image makers in the business, all while shooting on my own. Since then, I’ve incorporated more motion/video to my image making, going out as aCamera Operator/DP. I have shot all over the USA, and have expanded this via my travel blog www.BrownPassport.com to include the far reaches of SE Asia on land and in the sea. I’ve been based out of New York city, though have lived and worked in Chicago, New Orleans, Miami, Philadelphia, and spent a few months living and shooting in Hawai’i, and Indonesia. Have passport, do travel. Current personal work may be viewed via www.BrownPassport.com and www.YouTube.com/BrownPassport

Sooo......I guess this is where I'm supposed to talk aboot myself, eh? Well, the long and the short of it is I do audio things. Sometimes I do audio things at the Pancake Factory, other times I do audio out on location for film and media. Basically, I produce music, compose scores, dub ADR, record audio out in the field for film, ENG and docs. All the things. I started out as a post-guy, though. I was lucky enough to intern as an Engineer Assistant for Post Audio big-wigs Mike Wilhoit and Scott Wolf at Soundelux in Hollywood, CA (which is where I'm from, btw...). Upon graduating college, I wanted to put off the real world for a little while, so I enrolled in the Masters in Music Technology program at NYU. After that, I wanted to put off the real world for a little while more, so I opened up a recording studio in the rough and tumble neighborhood of Park Slope Brooklyn. Farm-to-Table Ethiopian restaurants. Bars with bocce ball and stroller parking on Sundays. Real gritty stuff. The Pancake Factory and I have been in the thick of this since 2007. ​I have worked on all sorts of projects: Documentaries. Feature Films. Reality TV. Scripted TV. Webseries. Commercials. Corporate. ENG. You name it, I've done it.

I'm a multi-faceted technician who is well-versed in all aspects of video production. My expertise in live streaming, camera, lighting, sound, editing, compression and visual effects has allowed me to produce over 600 videos for the Web and TV. I believe that documentaries are the last bastion of journalism. Having worked for network news at MSNBC for almost four years as an editor helped lead me to this conclusion. Documentaries can help change the world in which we live. Currently I am working on a feature documentary about a self taught artist who is entrenched in the noise scene, comics, zines, and performance art. I like to hunt for documentary stories about artists, social movements, historical events, human & animal rights, science, technology, and environmental issues. I believe a can-do attitude and team-player mentality makes a great video producer. My goal is to be the best of the best and create content that connects to audiences worldwide.

I'm a Chicagoan with a degree in journalism from the University of Illinois. I moved to Brooklyn in January 2013 to work as an assistant to former CNN/MSNBC President, Rick Kaplan. Last February I helped Mr. Kaplan launch a music news show on Fuse TV. Now I would like to pursue a more active role in journalism. I dedicated my college years to learning the many sides of video production, so I can become an effective storyteller. I learned the most outside the classroom by taking on independent projects. I discovered my passion for long-form video storytelling by producing three half-hour documentaries, one of which was produced in Turkey. I hosted, associate produced, and reported in this documentary called, "Illinois Travels to Turkey." The documentary aired on Chicago's PBS station, and it also won a Silver Pillar at the 2013 Mid-America Emmys. I can edit, write, shoot, interview, and produce, and I'm eager to improve my storytelling one story at a time.

I am documentary filmmaker and have been independently making short and feature length documentaries for almost ten years. My films have screened at numerous festivals and venues throughout the U.S. as well as internationally. I am a recipient of the Artist Fellowship Grant in Film/Video from the Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism and was awarded a regional Emmy nomination for my work. My strengths are in making short subject docs, having worked as a Segment Producer for syndicated television in the early part of my career. My film and video work aspires to confront social norms and stereotypes. I particularily like to make films about individuals who live non-traditional lives, are doing unusual things or see the world in way that the rest of us don't. I often find that these stories are in our own backyard, and that these individuals can take us to "places" that we never imagined.

I'm Daniel "Don Solaris" Melguizo. I'm 39, from Spain, and living in New York City since 2005. I'm mainly interested in telling stories about normal people who do extraordinary things. That is a broad concept but the essence is always the same: A community that is benefitted by the actions of one particular person, to show the rest of the world that there's something else besides the comfort bubble we like to reclude ourselves in. To denounce the wrong doing of some, portraying the good work of others. Issues like immigration, poverty, human rights, education and art interest me. I've worked in all kind of environments. Im always close to the action and I never hide behind my camera. Being bilingual English-Spanish plays a big role in this task which is my integration among those who make the story Im filming. I recently rode my motorcycle from NYC to Argentina, to find real stories. Ive already edited a series of profiles about unknown people that is worth seeing up close.

I am a video journalist who recently graduated from the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism. Before moving to New York I was the managing editor of Salt Lake Underground Magazine, a free monthly music publication based in Salt Lake City, UT for three and a half years. I've interned with New York Times Magazine, New York Magazine and SPIN. I'm interested in stories about music, art and youth culture and how these things intersect in daily life. I've spent the last year and a half covering the Brooklyn neighborhood of East New York and while there I've become interested in stories about urban poverty, education, immigration and human rights. I just wrapped a project about an East New York marching band that keeps children off the area's dangerous streets and away from gangs. Next up, I'd like to do a video story about single fathers in the city or the rights of pregnant foster children. I'm always on the hunt for compelling characters.

For the past several months I've been handling petabytes of data on at the National Geographic Channel. I worked with editors and producers to ensure a seamless media workflow, and kept deliveries to our digital distribution partners on-time. Before NatGeo I was at The Washington Post, where I was in numerous roles as a technical director, editor, web producer, and videographer. From running video walls to wrangling robotic cameras, from patching in NASA astronauts from space to directing shows - we were a lean and mean crew. I worked extensively on their web team to engage audiences across platforms, striking the right mix of social media while tweaking my headlines for SEO for maximum exposure of our content. Several years at American University were the basis of my production experience, as I led a team of 12 production assistants to produce content for the school. If you're looking for someone with versatility and is a creative problem solver, then I'm your guy.

I am confident that my success in a wide spectrum of feature film and web video projects, in addition to my passion for reporting, makes me uniquely qualified to contribute for Storyhunter. Through years of experience working on feature films in Los Angeles as an editor, gaffer, and field recordist, I have developed the technical expertise necessary to enhance and distinguish my reportage. My experience ranges from editing a documentary about revolutionary journalist Mumia Abu-Jamal, to conducting interviews with government officials, to producing an on-site documentary for a multinational corporation. Most recently, I produced, shot and edited a documentary about the oil boom in Williston, North Dakota. This project showcases my technique as both a reporter and visual storyteller, as I was responsible for developing government sources, winning the trust of oil workers at the labor camp I was staying in, and then designing a visual narrative that honored the integrity of this community while also shining a light on the challenges they faced.
