Brent REynolds

Brent founded August Moon Productions in 1993 as a DBA and incorporated in 2012. Originally started as a moonlighting job to fill the need for B-roll to support live show presentations at the Home Shopping Network, where he was employed at the time, August Moon has since branched out into industrials, commercials, web content, digital marketing, direct response / informercials, music video, photography, short films, web series, and even features. 

Brent’s father was in the Air Force and Brent spent much of his childhood split between Guam and Texas. Though his father was a lifer in the Air Force, he was also a folk musician who opened for such acts as the Kingston Trio and Mo Bandy when they toured with the USO. With that influence, Brent picked up his first guitar while still in the third grade and started first band in the fifth grade. To date, he continues to write and record with his brothers, Kevin and Glenn.  

A concurrent love is that of athletics. Brent played baseball starting at the age of five until high school when he began pole vaulting. He lettered his freshman year and, subsequently, received a partial scholarship in vaulting to Abilene Christian University. Instead, he went into the military though still tries to remain physically active Jet Skiing, and Surfing.

Brent started his military career as a technician on Navigation / Tactical Trainers in the Air Force – in short, a flight simulator tech. After his enlistment was up, he went to work for various defense contractors and worked his way up to the grade of field engineer and eventually managed the F-16 trainers for the 56th Tactical Training Wing at MacDill AFB, FL. That is when he decided to return to school and finally settled on a film degree.

During his college career, Brent was the Cinematographer on 17 plus short films, directed two, and interned on numerous films, commercials, and television shows. After several years freelancing, Brent went to work for The Home Shopping Network where he started as a Production Manager, then moved on to Product Knowledge (developed on-air presentations for the hosts and guests), and finally, Supervising Producer. He produced all shows that involve Electronics, Toy and Entertainment product lines. After HSN, Brent went back into the freelance world while continuing to run August Moon Productions with clients such as Disney, Kimmig Entertainment, High Noon Productions, The Home Shopping Network, QVC, TSC, Valspar, Infusion Brands, Blue Water Media, DXG, Valspar, Creative Labs, MTV, Lexmark, Kodak, Garmin, Audiovox, Board of Advisors, Audy Global and Westinghouse. From there, he worked as a Producer and Creative Director for Pitch Media and began a foray into Digital Advertising and Marketing. Since Pitch Media, Brent has turned his attention back to his own company, August Moon Productions, and is currently in the process of securing final funding to produce the psychological thriller Distort(Ed).
