He has been a member of the studio production staff for the State of Hawaii, Department of Education's highly acclaimed, distant learning television program called Kidscience. He served as a promotions editor for FOX and UPN network affiliate stations. Mr. Ford also served in the United States Air Force. While in the USAF, Danny and was trained as both a still and video photographer. He worked in photo laboratories printing and duplicating the original still photo images he and his colleagues had taken in the field. From celebrities, to sporting events, to military exercises, to documenting high-ranking government officials, Danny has lent his expertise to the successful documentation of many special events. His distinctive style of videography caught the eye of his military supervisors. He was requested to become the on-call videographer for the Commander of The Pacific Air Forces. His time working in Air Force portrait studios, and military and commercial photo labs was also significant. He has worked in the broadcast communications industry as a show coordinator. He was responsible for managing the logistics of large amounts of AV equipment, as well as supervising and directing crews of union and contract audio-visual technicians for a company that provided the presentation equipment for major conventions. As a sales representative for two separate Broadcast Communications equipment providers, he gained extensive knowledge of current and upcoming technologies in the audiovisual arena. His experience in the field of documenting forensic evidence began in 1990. While stationed in Hawaii as a photographer he provided photo and video support for military investigations. He also provided similar forensic documentation for a few Honolulu based attorneys on a contract basis. This was his first experience providing evidence for use in civilian legal matters. His military training in the correct methods of evidence documentation was a valued asset for his clients. In 1999 Danny began working full-time as the in-house Director of Video Production for one of Dallas' most prestigious personal injury law firms. It was this position that gave him a creative edge in legal presentations.
