In 1997, Michael G. Barrett graduated from Full Sail University with a degree in film and video production. After graduation, Barrett was hired full-time at Family Worship Center in Lakeland, Florida, where he was responsible for the start-up of the church’s television ministry. This $700,000 project reached international status under Barrett’s leadership.

Barrett left Family Worship Center after three years to start what is now Barrett Creative, a video production and web design firm. Since 2001, Barrett Creative has worked on many capital campaigns at the local, national, and international levels, helping to raise more than $10 million dollars.

Barrett Creative worked for eight years with Lakeland-based First Baptist Church at the Mall, where the company produced First Baptist’s local and national television ministry. Barrett Creative has produced promotional and fundraising materials for other localorganizations including The Florida Baptist Children’s Home, Lighthouse Ministries, Idols Aside Ministries, and the Watson Clinic Foundation. Barrett Creative also has produced promotional videos for children’s homes in Honduras and Cambodia.

In 2005, Southeastern University became a Barrett Creative client when the university needed to produce a new promotional DVD for the institution’s change from college to university status. Since beginning a relationship with Southeastern, Barrett Creative has been the primary video production firm for the University’s annual leadership conference, The Forum. Barrett Creative has produced multiple videos and created graphics for The Forum since 2006, and provided a total re-design of the conference’s website.

Barrett’s real passion is to tell stories through short film. In 2008, Barrett produced his first short film, The Pizza Connection, which was endorsed by Patrick Lencioni, author and president of The Table Group. Barrett continues to work on other short film projects.
