HEY BUDDY TV
Where content, creativity
& technology intersect!
Dave Chung
Studio Manager, Production Manager, Project Manager, DP, Director and Technical Director
Production and AV systems leader with 20+ years directing teams, technology, multi cameras and high-profile content for a client and employer roster that spans enterprise, entertainment, and elite talent — including Visa, Google, Cisco, TechTV, Apple, NBC, and artists such as Rihanna and Jay-Z.
Equally fluent leading people and leading builds: recruits, mentors, and manages producers, editors, and technical crews; owns budgets, vendor/OEM contracts, and SOW negotiations; and engineers and maintains the broadcast/AV systems (NDI, Q-SYS, Ross, TriCaster, Cyviz) that keep 200+ events a year on air. That range — hands-on creative execution, technical systems ownership, and people/vendor leadership, proven across Fortune 500 campuses, national broadcast, and global trade-show stages — is what makes me equipped to lead: I have already done the job at every level I have been asked to manage. Comfortable directing executives and A-list talent on camera, translating brand strategy into flawless live execution, and serving as the trusted operational partner who lets leadership focus on vision.
