Coding
Workflow Automation/Optemization developer
My name is Brandon Chen, I bring 14 years of experience working with leading tech companies, specializing in solid-state storage, and I’m now channeling that expertise into the film industry to pursue my passion for storytelling. With a strong foundation in computer science and filmmaking, I understand both the technical and creative sides of production.
I’m fluent in multiple programming languages—including C++, C#, Python (with AI integration), Lua, JavaScript, HTML, Google Apps Script, and Microsoft VBA—allowing me to craft flexible, tailored solutions.
In film, I’ve seen firsthand how much time is lost to repetitive tasks. My focus is on building bespoke automation tools that streamline workflows, reduce costs, and help creators concentrate on what they do best. Unlike hiring a full-time engineer, I provide custom code at a fraction of the cost, with the versatility to adapt solutions across different stages of production.
By blending deep technical expertise with an insider’s understanding of filmmaking, I deliver creative, efficient, and highly adaptable tools designed for modern production teams.

Examples
Copyright Protection Tool
I develop AI-powered tools that scan titles and thumbnails against a Google Sheets database, then automatically file copyright reports. A simple user interface allows for manual verification and easy updating of the thumbnail library.
Data Aggregation
I build tools in Google Apps Script or Python to automate data collection, including web scraping of relevant information. These scripts can run daily to generate new entries in Google Sheets, with on-demand graphs to track changes and trends over time.
Davinici / Video editor Automation
I design custom user interfaces with fully featured bin architectures in DaVinci Resolve or other professional editors (Avid, Premiere). These tools automate tedious, time-consuming tasks and simplify them into streamlined, one-click operations.
Possibilities are endless
Every team’s workflow is unique, and I work closely with you and your team to design tools tailored to your exact needs. Whether it’s a simple automation to save a few clicks or a full-scale system to overhaul production pipelines, there’s always room for optimization. By reducing repetitive tasks and streamlining processes, you not only save valuable hours but also cut labor costs—directly increasing efficiency and profitability.
No job is too small or too large. From one-off utilities to complex, integrated solutions, I bring a versatile approach that ensures your workflow becomes faster, smoother, and more reliable. With the right tools in place, your team can focus on creativity and growth while the code quietly handles the heavy lifting.
