Meet Brett Hammon · Pittsburgh filmmaker
Good films
start with
people.
I’m Brett. I help businesses and nonprofits turn the work they care about into stories people can connect with. It starts with a conversation.
A little about me
The best part?
Getting to
know you.
I’m a husband, a Christian, and a filmmaker. My faith shapes how I want to show up: with care for people, honesty about the work, and a willingness to serve.
I’ve spent about a decade making videos, with experience in commercials, interviews, and documentaries, behind the camera and in the edit. But the thing that keeps me interested is always the person in front of me.
I listen for the reason you started, the detail your team refuses to overlook, and the customer who can explain what your work meant to them.
I ask a lot of questions, then help shape what I hear into a film with a clear purpose, one that feels like you and gives the right people a reason to care.
Working with me
A clear plan.
A familiar face.
You’ll know who’s guiding the story and where the project stands. I’m your point of contact for the creative direction, from our first conversation through the edit.
We start by listening.
You bring the idea, the challenge, or the thing you wish people understood. I help find the story and what the film needs to do.
You get room to be yourself.
I guide the interviews and give people time to settle in. You don’t need to be a performer or arrive with the perfect words.
We keep the details clear.
We agree on scope, schedule, and deliverables before filming. If we need more crew, it goes in the proposal. You review the edit and have a chance to give feedback.
From someone I’ve worked with
“A lot of people can do videos… What you can do is listen, encourage and bring people’s vision to life.”JB Ward · Metro Director, Young Life Pittsburgh
Rooted here. Ready to go.
Pittsburgh is home.
Your story sets
the location.
I’m based in the South Hills and work with organizations across the Pittsburgh area, from Mt. Lebanon and Bethel Park to downtown, Southpointe, and the North Hills.
I’ll travel when a project calls for it. Tell me where the story is happening, and we’ll build that into the plan.
Getting married? You’ll find that side of my work at Brett Hammon Weddings.
Let’s start with a conversation
Tell me what
you’re building.
Whether it’s a full brief or the start of an idea, I’d be glad to hear it.
