I'm Dave Fairman, I'm a director and writer.
When I was a teenager I thought I was destined to be the next great rock guitarist. I was going to be in a band, record albums, and tour stadiums. Spoiler alert: I am not a world famous rock guitarist.
My backup plan was to pursue audio engineering. I learned Pro Tools and how to record other artists. I did an internship with a recording studio where I learned I loved recording music...if it was my music. I didn't have the fire or passion for the rest.
But then we got to the post-production section of the internship and something clicked. I realized while putting audio to video how much telling the story visually resonated with me.
I bought a camera. I shot a terrible project with my sister-in-law's kids. I wrote a parody of “The Office” which was shown at a meeting for my employer. And I was off.
Now I write and direct films, commercials, and other video projects.
I also produce and edit, I’ve served as fight choreographer and craft service person, I occasionally and very poorly work as costumer or makeup consultant if that'll help the project get completed.
I love all of it.
I just like to make stuff. Hope you like some of it.
