Welcome to Alex LOGIC, where CREATIVITY meets Ability, and then something happens.

Edit update, April 10, 2019. I am now a Brand Enhancement Advisor. You can learn about me on LinkedIn.

Hi, my name is Alessandro Machi and you are visiting AlexLOGIC blog where I share my insights about television programs and commercials. Although I am an ideas person, I've walked the film and video production walk for the past two decades.

I've edited in total several hundred projects for independent thinkers, filmmakers, small business owners, inventors and their products, and for fortune five hundred companies. I've also been a cinematographer as well, in many instances shooting the very production I would then edit. All of the blog photos on both sides of this article are from some of the projects that I have been involved with.

It is difficult to describe how educational a process it can be to shoot, and then edit the footage that you shot. Being responsible to the decision maker in the editing room for the image and sound that was recorded on location is a type of education that is stimulating to say the least.

I've also been fortunate to have received bookend awards from the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, first winning a position in their highly sought after Nationwide Internship Scholarship competition in the commercials category in 1985, and then winning an A.T.A.S. Regional Emmy in 2000.

I have had the unique experience of working with decision making creatives one on one in my own video editing studio that I built from the ground up. I have also learned how to handle both the technical and creative aspect of video editing while also being aware of the importance of respecting the goals and wishes of my clients.

I now offer my services as a commercials and television content consultant on either a yearly basis or per project basis. I will contribute fantastic insight into your creative projects, both completed and in production. I have now written several blog articles about commercials and television programs that I could help improve with my ideas.

For every insight that I have shared on this blog, I have another idea that I have written about but didn't reveal the solution. I can't give all of my ideas away here, but I definitely will share many ideas so that you know you can count on me for excellent analysis.

I understand that anyone who would hire me already has access to many intelligent minds. My perspectives are usually unique and in most instances should "add" to your existing concept in a constructive manner. I can be respectful of successful minds that are already involved in your project while still offering an innovative idea that WILL benefit you and your project.

I have no desire to compete with the production company or the advertising agency that you are already using. I thrive on contributing to existing good ideas. Knowledgeable third party consultants are ideal for this, especially when they are respectful of both the production company involvement and the agency that creates the spot. My purpose is not to knock down your team, but to strengthen your message.

My inspiration to start my consulting business came from my wanting to take care of my my mother, and my father while he was still alive but terminally ill. I curtailed my own video production activities to be there for my parents. I know that the experiences I have generated in the past 20 years serve me well for providing excellent analysis of television productions and television commercials, and it is something I can from home.

Please go here to see actual projects I am looking to connect with. However, if your project is not on the list, that doesn't mean your project is less important, just that you found me before I found you.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Two upcoming projects that both mean a lot to me are books that I am writing, however I have put both projects on the back burner to focus on my media consulting business.

One book is called "The Cat Who Ate Chase Bank".

The second book is called "What My Dad Left Behind" and explores all the wonderful surprises my recently passed dad left behind. Included are some amazing shots from the very yard garden he worked and proudly toiled over for 30 years while also working a day job and being there for mom.

My dad, Carmelo Machi, lived in Italy, in the Midwest of the United States, and finally in California. He lived in all three places for similar amounts of time. Each time my dad moved he had to basically start over, yet he did so happily and with renewed enthusiasm each and every time.

I believe my dad left a lot of great things behind, and I hope to cherish them and add to them as well.
