"Better Than Any AI App."   An Independent Thinker is a creative professional with a streamline process that is unaffected by industry habits which can be an advantage in finding original ideas and unexpected creative solutions. Working with an Indie Thinker can also be less expensive when contracted on a short term basis. You might say that AI software can offer that too. But can AI collaborate? Maybe in 50 years! An Independent Thinker or Multimedia Specialist offers video and design services with a unique, outsiders perspective, while providing an extremely diverse set of skills to create memorable content and to solve creative problems quickly. Whether working one on one or on a team, an Indie Thinker contributes artistic direction and a refreshing and constructive outlook to any discussion.

While it is good to have access to the growing number of subscription based creative apps available online, having help navigating through all the options is better. Plus, wouldn't you rather collab with an advanced artistic human and create fantastic, custom marketing materials and assets that perfectly align with your vision? Why not grow your company's media library instead of worrying about trying to choose from 'standard' stock footage that your competitor didn't use already.

The goal is to bring attention to  your brand  / your mission   and to increase visibility. If you are seriously looking for awesome ways to grab and keep your audience, and attract new, prospective markets then the presentation must be undoubtably memorable. Having a limited selection of media from an online supplier website with no personal customer service probably won't produce much traction. Settling for a randomly AI generated option might get some attention. But connecting with an Independent Thinker for creative insight and customization can evoke synergy and ingenuity. "Try doing that Robot!"










          In the mid-90s Douglas John Virsila founded his multimedia company IndependentThinking.us Creative Media Services. Much like a wide angle lens, he was open to take on all types of media projects that came his way. Having an education in video production and graphic design, Douglas John found a niche creating marketing materials for clients who were just starting out, looking to improve their businesses, or just wanting to fulfill a personal interest. Even after two and a half decades he continues to welcome individuals and businesses needing quality work that they can afford. Having an open door policy has made Douglas John’s company genuine, transparent and, by default, efficient. It has also made him a very good listener, extremely knowledgable of his crafts and easily adaptable to any working environment as a Video and Design Pro.







          Douglas John is known for producing quality, memorable media at affordable prices. How? By working as an all-in-one Freelance Multimedia Contractor. Douglas John has been fortunate enough to collaborate on challenging projects that have all had different creative solutions. As a result, he continues to simplify and refine process and navigates efficiently with a clear vision to the endgame. This trimmed business model works well especially with smaller budgets because it diverts unnecessary production costs that usually come from hiring a larger ‘bloated’ business. His approach also opens lanes of direct communication with clients and their affiliates where bigger production companies may have lengthy procedures, 'too many' involved , and 'too much' to offer. That is why IndependentThinking.us Creative Media Services exsists as an inspiring and petit operation.
