David Sussman

David Sussman is a two-time Emmy Award-winning producer with a career that spans broadcast production, music, television, film, and large-scale live events. He has worked with some of the biggest brands and most recognized celebrities in the world, giving him a deep understanding of what it takes to deliver high-level, world-class productions from concept to completion.

David began his career at 17 in the music industry, starting in the A&R department before moving into post-production for film and television. By learning the entire back end of the industry before ever stepping onto a set, he developed a unique “backwards-to-forwards” approach — building projects with the end result in mind from day one.

He went on to work in recording studios and live audio, eventually moving into operations management, where he refined the skills to coordinate complex productions and lead teams efficiently. That foundation allowed him to excel in producing sports broadcasts, concerts, music festivals, corporate conferences, award shows, brand activations, televised specials, TV shows, films, and music videos — in short, anything that calls for cinematic video, David can bring to life with precision and artistry.

Known for blending creativity with flawless execution, David has built a reputation for leading large crews, managing big budgets, and consistently delivering productions on time and under budget — all while maintaining a collaborative and inspiring work environment.

Today, David is the CEO of Burnout Brothers Media and CEO of Saussy Productions in Austin, Texas. Alongside his production work, he is deeply involved in nonprofit development, social impact storytelling, and community initiatives —public awareness campaigns, and outreach programs that create meaningful, lasting change.
