Isaac Campbell

Greetings! I’m Isaac, a video producer and artist in central Iowa. I’d like to help you.

In grade school, I always wanted to impress my school teacher with “the very best project they’d ever seen” - to this day, not much has changed. Although I’ve shifted from school projects to professional media production, I do still love working with paper and glue; albeit a little bigger now. Following my B.A. in media production from the University of Northern Iowa (2014) and a trip to study abroad with award-winning Hungarian filmmaker Ferenc Törok and his editor, Bela Barsi in Budapest, Hungary (2015), I returned to my hometown of Ottumwa, Iowa to start my own small business. There, I discovered my love for helping others with my skills and the importance of contributing to one’s community. In 2018 I was awarded a Fulbright Hungary student research grant from the U.S. State Department, which sent me back to Budapest for a year. After completing my thesis, I now hold an M.A. in Communication Studies from the University of Northern Iowa.

As a media professional, I have over a decade of experience working with local and regional businesses, community and municipal institutions, and non-profit organizations. I work with clients across Iowa and the United States - working remotely is standard practice. I pride myself in providing my clients with a personalized experience that is tailored to their needs, a product that focuses on their goals and ambitions, and level of professionalism that is expected when working with a specialist. Much of my drive as a professional comes from my training as a classical musician. This unique perspective of the importance of detail, rhythm, and flow set me apart from other professionals in the industry. My favorite projects are those that share human stories; stories that uplift others, stories that promote businesses and communities, stories that highlight the efforts of those who care, and most importantly, stories that speak to the heart. If you’d like to meet me, I’d like to help you.

Video Production

I specialize in producing documentary-style videos for local and regional businesses, community and municipal institutions, and non-profit organizations. This means compelling interviews, spectacular b-roll, and creative narratives that help tell a story that is unique to your goals and overall vision. I work with a wide variety of clients and experience levels. Whether you know exactly what you want, or need help knowing which way to go, I am an excellent and enthusiastic collaborator on any project.

Wheat Paste Murals

Wheat paste murals are at the intersection of everything I love - community, collaborative art, memory, and human stories. During my time as a Fulbright research grantee, I began experimenting with this art form on the streets of Budapest, Hungary. From small community art projects across Iowa to Oscar nomination campaigns in Los Angeles, I am thrilled to share this special form of public art with others to uplift captivating human stories.
