Brandon Hadnot

Creative | Owner of Higher Brand Films

My name is Brandon Hadnot, and I'm the owner of Higher Brand Films which is a multimedia production company based in Milwaukee County area of Wisconsin. I am a professional Designer, Videographer, Photographer, and Illustrator. I've spent thousands of hours honing my skills in these areas out of a desire to add purpose to my talents by serving others. Growing up in Milwaukee, WI, I saw several small businesses suffer from not having an effective way to tell their story. That's why I've been using my abilities to turn people's visions into reality for over a decade.

About Higher Brand Films

A Brief History.

I founded this company in December 2023 with the vision of bringing something to Wisconsin, especially the Milwaukee County area, that would elevate the quality of storytelling for small business owners and local filmmakers.

I’ve been into independent filmmaking since childhood. There was a time when I’d pick up anything with a record button and craft a story with it. I’ve always loved movies and their power to inspire through powerful imagery, music, and sound design. I’ve long admired the way they can elicit emotions in us as the artists intended, becoming core memories that stay for a lifetime. Fast forward to today, and I’m still a filmmaker with gear, films, and my own company that a younger me would be floored by.

Stay tuned for the website! It’s currently transitioning hosts, and I’m reconstructing it.

Higher Brand Films may sound pretentious, but the mission is in the name: elevating the experience of your audiences through storytelling.

“Brandon illustrated my book "What is the Moon?" and I cannot be happier. His process of listening and asking questions helped make my vision come to life. The best part of working with Brandon is his willingness to go back and forth to get things just right. He will be illustrating my next book as well!”
