The essence of video isn’t just recording with a camera, or putting clips on a timeline. It’s about capturing the energy of your vision; having your audience experience the same emotions you did when first beginning this journey. Your product, service, or event is an extension of you and the team who worked to bring it to life.
My job as a video producer is to let your ideas speak, to give it a voice that is unquestioned in its quality and objective. Below are some samples of content I have written, produced, animated or edited for various businesses - both large and small. Whether you need an edit of existing footage or a content plan from conception to completion, JF Video can help.
