He successfully sold the distribution rights of the video to a company in California and began creating television shows.[5] In 1997, Brutsman established an independent television production company, which he named Brentwood Communications International, Inc.

Brutsman has produced several shows focusing on the U.S. military. Some of these shows include the History of Navy SEALs, Special Operations, U.S. Customs; The Complete History of Green Berets; and Inside the Britannic.

In 2006, Brutsman and BCII created a U.S. Military corporate sponsorship program for a Marine platoon stationed in Iraq and their families back home.[citation needed] He oversaw efforts to collect exercise equipment, DVDs, magazines, and other supplies to be sent to the troops overseas, as well as organizing events and functions for the troops' families.[citation needed]
