Director Biography - Alex Vishno

Bold innovation. Flair. And real-world experience. These are three attributes that define the work of producer Alex Vishno. He weaves together unique career threads such as hot-seat production jobs with large scale Madison Square Garden televised concert productions, Bahrain royalty, and powerhouse corporations with high-level academic accreditations. Through A2V Media, he makes his expertise and creativity available to the public and artfully reimagines the video production experience.

Fresh out of Berklee College Of Music Alex found himself working behind the scenes at the Michael Jackson 30th Anniversary Concerts in Madison Square Garden. He was literally helping to run a landmark show in an iconic venue as assistant music director. At one point, he was the only soul in the audience of the famed venue watching MJ rehearse with ‘N Sync. It was a profound, life changing moment.

Electrified by his early success, Alex finished his Masters in Fine Arts (MFA) at Cal Arts and went on to pursue an Masters in Business Administration (MBA) degree at Babson College honing his production chops and sharpening his business acumen. Alex has since gone on to become a highly versatile producer through his work with celebrity artists, professional athletes, venture capitalists, Silicon Valley moguls, fortune 500 companies, innovation consulting firms, hospitals, cities, towns, nonprofits, government officials, small businesses, and startups. To each project he brings his fingerprint of creativity, polished professionalism, and unmatched passion for the work.

Alex’s company offers full video production packages, equipment and manpower with the goal of always streamlining the production process. A2V Media is based in Fairfield, Connecticut with a new office in Austin, Texas. A2V has worked all over the globe.

It’s been a dazzling journey for Alex Vishno. There probably isn’t another producer around who can say they started at Madison Square Garden working with brand name celebrities. When you start at the top that becomes the standard and A2V Media is redefining how his clients can create videos to reach and grow their audiences.
