About

TL;DR: Led a video team in-house for 4 years. Now I help B2B marketers create confident video ads. So, who dis? 👇 Hey there, I’m Connor. Queer film enthusiast, marathon runner, D&D fanatic, and video strategist. I started my career building an in-house video team for a SaaS company. Over 5 years, we went from $10M —> $100M in revenue. And the marketing team grew 4 —> 14. Was that all me? Hell no. But our videos worked. And I was able to make a business case for bigger & bigger investments in video. Once I saw what was working, I founded Studio Lewis. —— Studio Lewis —— Here's the problem... When it comes to video production, companies have a few options these days: - Pay $50k+ for an agency to produce a “campaign” that dies in 3 months - Pay $10k+/mo for a content agency that you have to constantly feed videos - Pay $5k for a freelancer who makes a forgettable "text on screen" video Our approach is different (and cheaper). We think memorable video ads come from a memorable story. In other words, Our videos don’t TELL people about your features. We SHOW how the features integrate into your prospect’s life. All by casting good actors, adding a bit of comedy, and animating your product into the shots. And we do the heavy lifting to make that happen. We research. We pitch. We write. We cast. We film. We edit. We create 10+ versions. The end result? An ad suite that gets clicks. All turnkey. Learn more about & see our work —> www.studiolewis.video
