I'm Adam Bridle, an Ottawa videographer. I shoot documentaries, fight cards and live sport, commercial and branded work.
Long-form, character-driven films for people and organizations with a real story to tell.
Fight cards, tournaments, and live sport. Fast, physical, and unpredictable — built to keep up with it.
Spots and ongoing content series for brands who want cinematic craft that still hits the brief.
Launches, matches, and one-take moments. Shot fast and cut fast without losing the craft.
I've been shooting freelance in Ottawa for seven years — documentaries, narrative work, professional sports, commercials, branded content, and live events. Most of it ends up being sports and combat, but I'll take on pretty much whatever a project needs.
I've worked with George St-Pierre, and with organizations including Discovery Channel, Bally Sports Network, UFC Fight Pass, the Ottawa REDBLACKS, the United Nations, Aputure Lighting, Autocorp.ai, and O2 Industries.
I plan with the edit in mind, but stay open to what happens on the day. That’s usually where the good stuff is.
A proper chat before anything gets filmed, so I know what’s actually worth shooting.
Small crew — often just me — natural light where I can get it, and enough patience to wait for the real moment.
The story gets built in the edit bay — structure, pace, and sound design, not just trimming clips.
Every aspect ratio and cutdown you need, graded and captioned, ready to publish.
