began offering a television production class.
In 1990, he began working at Broadcast Quality, a video production company
specializing in Corporate & Legal video productions. With some experience under his
belt, Ozzie left Broadcast Quality and entered the world of freelance production work.
Shooting low budget music videos and small corporate jobs, still eager to learn more about
the industry he began working at Accord Film and Video Productions as their night editor

commercials, documentaries, music videos and independent features.

In 1998, while working as a Senior Camera Operator, at a Barry Diller television station, the

station acquired a Steadicam but did not have anyone to operate it. It was here where Ozzie

began the next chapter of his career as a Steadicam operator. A few years later he would be

properly taught by Garrett Brown, the inventor of the Steadicam.
