Danny De Bonis

Workshop Leader

Danny uses video to help engage communities and build movements. He's worked with several organizations including Airbnb, Google, Pandora, and the Sierra Club. Before that, he worked at Al Gore’s Repower America, where he utilized his online organizing background for the first time to produce several successful online videos. Most notable was “Breathe,” which was nominated for best nonprofit video by YouTube’s DoGooder Nonprofit Video Awards. In 2012, he co-founded Wake The Beast, a nonprofit video production company that created provocative, irreverent videos by connecting creative communities to progressive causes. With a background in new media and email marketing, his experience with testing how people interact with online content informs how he produces and edits video. He graduated cum laude from Boston University with a B.A. in Sociology.
