About Me
Hi, I’m Jacob Wheeler, a creative professional from Bloomington, Indiana, with a lifelong passion for storytelling, media, and technology. I spent my summers as a kid making videos for fun with my twin brother and cousins. It wasn’t long before a video production class in middle school ignited my interest in filmmaking and helped me realize I wanted to pursue this work. Winning a national C-SPAN documentary contest further fueled my passion for storytelling and set me on the path to a career in video production.
After high school, I co-founded a wedding videography business with my twin brother. Over five years, we captured 80+ weddings, developing a fast-paced workflow that honed my cinematography and adaptability. During this time, I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Media Communications from Full Sail University, graduating in 2020. My experience now spans more than a decade, covering every stage of video production—from pre-production and lighting to directing and editing.
In my latest work, I’ve created impactful video content for a local Indiana roofing contractor and my local church, as well as produced narrative projects that tell compelling stories. As an experienced videographer and FAA Certified Drone Pilot, I bring creativity, technical skill, and a passion for storytelling to every project. Explore my portfolio, and let’s collaborate to bring your vision to life.
