Profile

The person in the chair when it counts

“My passion is to bring people together through powerful experiences.”

Mindy Herb is a live production leader with more than twelve years across broadcast news, corporate and client events, and multi-campus live and hybrid production. She has directed multi-level live broadcasts at Straight Arrow News, managed technical operations and a twenty-person team at Bock Technologies under contract with AT&T, and directed live video across three campuses at Christ Chapel Bible Church.

She works at both altitudes. In the moment, she is the technical director, producer, and editor — hands on the switcher, eyes on the clock. Between shows, she is the one writing the quality standards, building the ticketing system, fixing the handoff between departments, and mentoring the people who will run the next one. A PCMA-certified Digital Event Strategist, she is equally at home with a room, a stream, or both at once.

Available for production consulting, technical direction, and production leadership — from planning and staffing through show day.

Capabilities

What she is brought in to do

Eight areas of expertise, each with the work behind it. No line here is a claim without a show attached to it.

Production Strategy

Advises on planning, workflows, staffing, timelines, and operational structure — the shape of how a studio actually runs. Troy Brewer Ministries: improved media and cross-department communication, tripling content output and follower base in one year while shortening delivery times.

Live & Video Production

Technical director, producer, and editor for live broadcasts, special events, and hybrid productions. Directed live video across three campuses at Christ Chapel Bible Church; directed multi-level live broadcasts at Straight Arrow News.

Production Planning

Guides projects from concept and pre-production through execution, with the schedule and the crew planned together rather than in sequence. Managed schedules, meetings, and project assignments for a 20-person team at Bock Technologies.

Workflow & Efficiency

Builds the standards and handoffs that make quality repeatable instead of heroic. Wrote broadcast quality standards and streamlined cross-functional workflows at Straight Arrow News; built a media-request ticketing system at Troy Brewer Ministries.

Team & Vendor Coordination

Leads crews and works across IT, design, and executive leadership to get a production out the door. Led a 20-person production team; built a collaborative culture at Christ Chapel that increased volunteer retention.

Problem Solving

Researches and implements new systems under live conditions, where the fix has to work the first time. Researched and deployed new systems for live broadcasts and special events at Straight Arrow News.

Studio Networking & Partnerships

A decade-plus of relationships across broadcast news, corporate and client production, and ministry media — a network for finding partners, crew, collaborators, and clients. Straight Arrow News · Bock Technologies · Christ Chapel Bible Church · Troy Brewer Ministries.

Strategic Support

An experienced resource to leadership as an organization establishes its presence and grows its audience. Supported executive initiatives that increased audience engagement across platforms at Straight Arrow News.
