Chase Thompson is a Bay Area producer who's spent eight years turning complex tech companies into stories people actually want to watch.
Chase founded Catch 30 Productions after film school in California, where he figured out the thing that still drives the work: the best stories aren't about the product, they're about the people building it.
Since 2018 he's worked across the Bay Area, from startups finding their footing to large medical and corporate brands. The projects change. The job doesn't. Take something genuinely complicated and make it feel simple, human, and worth a few minutes of someone's time.
He's strongest as a producer. That means he starts with what a company is trying to accomplish and builds the video around it, so the final cut earns its place instead of sitting in an archive.
Eight years behind the camera and in the producer's chair. Film school in California, then straight into the Bay Area tech scene, where the companies are doing some of the most interesting and hardest-to-explain work anywhere.
His range covers founder and executive interviews, brand and product spots, and full event coverage for conferences and summits. He's produced for startups, established tech companies, and some of the larger medical and corporate names in the region.
What he keeps coming back to is the overlap between storytelling and tech. Plenty of people can point a camera. Fewer can sit with a founder, understand what their company actually does, and turn it into something a viewer feels.
