In this episode, Cole Heilborn takes a deep dive into an approach he calls Problem-First Creative—the philosophy of prioritizing purpose over aesthetics in video production. In an industry bursting with creative options, it’s easy for filmmakers and brands alike to focus on elements like lighting, talent, and locations. But Cole argues that a more impactful approach involves beginning with a clear understanding of the why behind each project. Rather than simply creating eye-catching visuals, he explains why production should first and foremost solve real business problems.
Cole discusses the downside of the content-saturated market, where shouting louder doesn’t necessarily lead to being heard. Instead, he encourages brands to create content that stands apart from the noise by aligning creative work with the unique challenges a brand faces—whether that’s building awareness, educating an audience, or telling an athlete’s story. He shares insights on Port Side’s approach, where projects are structured around brand identity, a deep understanding of the target audience, and a commitment to problem-solving.
This episode is essential listening for anyone in video production or brand marketing who wants to break free from the routine of just following trends and start crafting content that resonates, connects, and drives real results.
Key Takeaways
How to adopt a Problem-First Creative mindset to create more impactful content Why purpose is more critical than aesthetics in video production The dangers of pitching stories without a clear understanding of a brand’s needs Ways to stand out in an oversaturated media landscape The importance of aligning video work with brand identity and audience needs About the Backcountry Marketing PodcastIf you like what you’re hearing, feel free to leave us a review on Apple or Spotify.
