Freelance Production by Mike Hanley
While I currently spend most of the year in the Television/Radio/Film program in the Newhouse School at Syracuse University, I also do freelance video production work. I'm primarily available in the Pittsburgh area during the summer months and over winter break. However, I may also be available in Syracuse while I am there.
My skills and services include:
- Video Production (MiniDV)
- Digital Video Editing
- DVD Authoring
- Video Encoding for Web Delivery (Quicktime, Windows Media, DivX, MPEG)
- Visual Effects
- Web Design
My current resume can be found here.
I can provide my own equipment, or use yours if all you need is a crew. The Studio page details some of the production equipment I have at my disposal.

Additional Work
My independent work (Primarily the movies I've worked on in high school and college) are still in the process of being uploaded to this site, but for now you can still see most of them at their old home, HanleyFilms.NET. Once HanleyFilms.COM is finished, the old site will redirect to the new one. Additionally, my entry for the Modest Mouse Green Screen contest can currently be viewed on YouTube.
