The Powers Behind PowerSource

PowerSource Media LLC Principal Brian Powers has been dabbling with digital media for over thirty years and has been on the Lexington, Kentucky, creative scene for nearly two decades. From creating his first desktop-published ‘zine in 1993 and building his first website in the nascent days of the "World Wide Web" in 1997, Powers has run the gamut of digital and print media. 

Beginning with relatively simple tools such as Harvard Graphics and Microsoft Publisher, Powers branched out to Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign for design work in 2002, followed soon by Premiere Pro and AfterEffects for video production and post-production in 2004. If Adobe makes it, he shakes it, and he’s done so for over two decades now.

Powers also brings a unique skill set to bear from years spent as a live sound engineer and digital recording enthusiast, providing lived experience to produce multimedia content that not only looks good, but sounds even better. 

Of course, it doesn’t hurt Powers to have the research, writing, and analytical skills of a licensed attorney, skills which may have never been put to use in a courtroom, but have instead proven handy throughout a decade-long career in legal marketing. There was also a stint as a freelance writer, which earned him a Kentucky Press Association award in 2012, and his prior position creating streaming multimedia for the University of Kentucky Office of Continuing Legal Education.
