Professional Bio
Back in the early 1970’s, “Bobby” picked up his father’s Kodak Xl33 Super 8
camera, lined up his toys, and animated them battling each other. An
A/V Club nerd from the beginning who kidded himself into thinking that he
could, one day, be a veterinarian, realizing later that he couldn’t do that
'science thing', but that he could do that creative thing.
In college, he studied to be a TV reporter, got an internship at his hometown TV station in Shreveport, LA and once he sat down to write a script for broadcast, the blank stare at the typewriter keys and writer’s block gave him an epiphany -- “I’ve decided to become a TV Photographer!”
Bob spent 25 years as a television photojournalist for news stations in Shreveport, New Orleans and Denver. He was the Media Production Specialist for the City of Golden, Colorado for 13 years. Bob’s duties at Golden included managing, scheduling, and producing content for the city’s PEG channel, GCO.tv, producing video projects for public and in-house use, directing City Council meetings for broadcast, and keeping the citizens informed through Golden’s streaming channel and the various social media outlets.
Bob currently works as a contract videographer/editor with the City & County of Denver and, for the past 13 years, has a freelance business, Pearce Video Productions, working with government, non-profit and corporate clients.
Bob is the winner of multiple broadcast news, photography, and editing awards, including 2 Emmys, an Edward R. Murrow Award and several NATOA GPA awards.
