A Bit About Me
Hello, my name is Nate Mooty, and I have over 15 years of experience as a video editor and videographer in the film and advertising industry. I have developed a strong passion for storytelling through visual media.
I graduated from Michigan State University in 2011, and I began my career in videography and editing, working on various projects, including weddings, corporate videos, and television shows for networks such as PBS, CW, and OWN. In 2014, I transitioned into the advertising world, collaborating with esteemed brands like GM, Ford, Bush's Beans, and McDonald's. This experience has not only refined my technical
skills but also emphasized the significance of teamwork and creativity in high-pressure environments. Throughout my career, I have worked with major advertising agencies and post-production houses, including Doner, Ringside, Ron Rose, and Sussman. I am proud to have contributed to numerous award-winning campaigns, including a Super Bowl spot that aired in 2017, and my work has garnered accolades such as the D-Show Award, Webbys, and multiple ADDY awards.
​
I am dedicated to delivering high-quality content that brings clients’ visions to life with precision and imagination. My passion for quality and storytelling is evident in my achievements, which reflect my commitment to innovation and excellence. I am thrilled about the opportunity to bring my expertise in video editing and production to your talented team. I would love to discuss how my background aligns with your goals and how I can contribute to your projects. I look forward to the possibility of speaking with you.
