Speaker Reel Production for Thought Leaders, Founders & Mission-Driven Experts
You’re already doing meaningful work on stage. Your reel should show it with clarity, credibility, and story.
A speaker reel should answer one question: What will this person deliver for my audience?
Most reels skip right past it.
They lean on dramatic lighting, big stages, and cinematic shots but leave out the substance. They look impressive for a few seconds, then blur together.
Event organizers don't book speakers based on production value. They book based on impact, clarity, and trust.
We craft story-driven speaker reels that show all three, highlighting your expertise, presence, and the real work you do, whether you're leading panels, delivering keynotes, or facilitating conversations that move a room.
With a background in journalism and documentary storytelling, we edit for message, clarity, and credibility, not just aesthetics. The result is a reel that decision-makers actually watch, remember, and act on.
Hi, I’m Bernadette and I capture the moments where ideas move rooms.
I’m a photo and video director with a background in journalism and documentary storytelling.
Over the years, I’ve documented conferences, summits, panels, and mission-driven leaders sharing ideas that matter. I know how to capture not just what you say — but how you connect with a room.
Your speaker reel isn’t about looking flashy. It’s about showing decision-makers, event organizers, and audiences that you belong on bigger stages.
That’s what we build here.
Based in Los Angeles and working frequently in the SF Bay Area, Solhaus Media creates speaker reels for founders, executives, and experts across the U.S.
