Oliver Bailey Stewart Howler

Oliver comes to the VIDEOEXPERTS / Steven Fowler Films family from a very untraditional and unexpected path. He was raised by his two parents who taught him all the tricks he knows today. If you ask him what his toughest thing to learn was, he will tell you, paws down, that it was learning to use puppy pads, but that, "in the end, it was all worth it." The way he thinks of it is that he didn't have to go to college to get his knowledge.

Oliver started as an intern in June 2008 to keep an eye on the office staff. Steve immediately noticed how meticulous Oliver was and his special knack for making customers feel at ease and for making employees feel good about themselves. After spotting this talent, without delay Steve brought Oliver onto the team full time.

Currently Oliver is the security for the entire office; he never misses who is coming and going. He is also the acting supervisor when Steve is not in the building and does an excellent job of keeping an eye on the staff. When asked what his strengths are in editing, Oliver says, "My strength would definitely be my sense of smell and sight. I know you are probably thinking, "how is a sense of smell useful for video editing?", let me tell you. I can watch a video and sniff out potential artistic inconsistencies. My nose can accurately diagnosis a computer technical issue that a human would not pick up on. And since my sight is just as good as my smell, if not better, I can equally spot trouble with my eyes. I also am very good at licking stamps. It's one of my favorite things to do."

When he's not supporting the staff, licking stamps or putting customers at ease, he enjoys chewing on pig's ears and rawhide bones. Oliver also loves to howl along when his mom sings to him.

"Money will buy you a pretty good dog, but it won't buy the wag of its tail."
