My name is Weston Green and I make videos and build video departments.
It all started in 2008 when I began as an intern working at Funny or Die. Since then, I’ve focused on building creative and economical video teams for digital publications that can scale in team size, generate revenue, and elevate the brand.
I've developed video strategies for startups including MakingOf, Bleacher Report, Elite Daily, CUT, Inverse, BDG, and Outlier.org

Negotiated and sold original shows to YouTube, Comcast & Verizon, each deal over $1MM.
