Top Video Production Companies

Finding a top-level web designer has been a tough job. What I found is that those at this level will easily charge, or wind-up costing, $5,000 for their work. And after working with Sunlight Media, I understand why. When you get clients as picky as I am, designing a site can be a lot of work. Nonetheless, Sunlight worked with me to the end to fulfill its agreement. The team continues to be responsive to me as I try to work through the guidebook they provided me. I spent many hours checking out company’s website portfolios Sunlight Media was the most consistently high-end with the designs I saw and with the most reasonable prices. However, make sure you understand the advantages and disadvantages if you get a custom designed site from Sunlight Media or anyone else. If you go with a template, make sure it is a good one and it may cause problems and not meet your expanding needs. If you go with a custom design, make sure you know what might be involved if you upgrade or wish to add a plugin later. I went with a custom design and am glad about the results because of the talent of the designer.

I can't say enough good things about Vibrant Media Productions. They gave us exactly what we wanted and more-- a compelling corporate video that told the story of our family-owned business and our future moving forward after changing our firm's name. We found Vibrant from a basic Google search, and after talking with Alex, he was able to suggest some amazing options for shooting our video (using Green screen in a spare office so as to capture our staff in a convenient location but provide a stimulating/lifelike background). The editing process was so helpful and allowed us to get every sound bite we wanted. We used a mixture of scripted/teleprompter interviews and freeflow interview that Chris was able to glean from our employees. He had a great interviewer demeanor and helped get the best quotes. The quality of the video was impeccable--great filming techniques for b-roll and all around professional looking. The process was wonderful, they gave us such quick turn-around times, and we did it all for the exact budget we hoped to spend. I recommend them to anyone looking for a high quality videographer.

David Bray and his team at Barking Squirrel Media are — to steal a line — the hardest working people in show business. Except, show business isn't the best term for what they do. Barking Squirrel Media is far too authentic for that. There is no veneer, there is no pretending; if they act passionate about your project, it's because they ARE passionate about your project. Guaranteed. I can honestly say I've never worked with a group so committed to overdelivering. Barking Squirrel Media gives you everything you could ever want in a working relationship. They have talent, integrity, passion, a tireless work ethic — and they are an absolute joy to work with. If I could have given BSM six stars, I would have; they are simply that good!

Ted is one of the most knowledgable, professional, and personable folks I have come across in a long time. Not only has he transformed my company's presence through SEO/SEM work, but he also has taught me a great deal along the way about how to see the world through the eyes of the consumer. He is dedicated to the success of his clients and I highly recommend his services.

Kevin is a joy to work with. He is super creative and has a natural talent for creating exciting and engaging content. His crew is top tier and a real blast to work with. I never thought that several full days of filming could be so fun. Kevin is a really great communicator and highly dependable responding to emails quickly and always ensuring that I felt like our project was in good hands. I am looking forward to next time we get to work together.

The team at SAC is top notch in terms of customer service and knowledge of digital communications of all kinds. In particular their expertise in animation and video production is incredibly creative and well executed as well as web design and development. My clients have been thrilled with the work, time and again. They also have a very talented group of design and branding experts, so if you want to extend your team to help with idea generation, they're great fun and super creative.

I recently worked with Mork Productions on a brand/marketing video and brand photography project. I can honestly say it was a stellar experience. They were collaborative partners and made the entire process enjoyable. They are also just generally great human beings to work and spend time with :-)

Exceeded my expectations and don't tell these guys, but they are about a third of the price of what I pay my other marketing companies and they blow them out of the water.

Northwestern Health Sciences University partnered with d.trio to develop the look and feel for our brand. The experience of collaborating with the team at d.trio was incredible. We had energy and synergy, because they listened to us, which is something that is truly lacking at most agencies. We had a true partnership with d.trio. We looked at the big picture, exchanged ideas, and then dug into the details. Our meetings were creative, fun and strategic. We came away with a look and feel that fit us. It is unique, bold, and it's making a statement. More importantly, it's practical to our real world needs. We approached d.trio because quite frankly, I saw they get it; that design needs to work, not just win awards. They delivered 100%.

Once we selected SlowClap, they took us through their process. We shared with them our expectations, walked through the brief in more detail, and explained the logistics (timeline) which was tight. Once we were on the same page, SlowClap put together an execution plan. SlowClap utilized internal and external research to decide on questions for each interviewee - they then performed a pre-interview to get initial plot points for the video. From there, SlowClap developed a creative brief (acts of the video, questions, shot list, etc) for our review. We worked hand in hand with Slowclap to get the logistics right. They performed the interviews, determined the best shots, and shot the video. Once they had all the footage, they edited together a first draft. We worked with them to get to a final video that everyone was happy with.

We’ve worked with Rob for years and always had an exceptional experience. Quick turnaround, fair pricing, great customer service and quality work every time!

We are a large organization where video production and webdesign is our lifeblood. I found the team at CRMG to be incredibly attentive to our needs and extremely creative. There are a lot of production companies in the area, and most of them treat you like just another customer...CRMG was totally different. They took the time to understand our company and our unique needs. Their video production team is Hollywood-level and their post-production is second to none. What I enjoyed most was their artistic contribution to our productions, especially suggestions tailored to who we are and our brand. The best part of the process was their extremely affordable prices. Similar outfits quoted us much much more, sometimes double what CRMG charged us. I will only use CRMG for all of our needs. They are tops!

After working with numerous graphic designers, Avalaunch has been (by far) the most professional, timely, and pleasurable to work with. The team assigned to our infographic design asked questions we hadn't even thought to answer, proactively nixing problems that probably would have come up later in the process--it's like they knew what we needed before we did! The friendly demeanor of their entire team, flexibility in scheduling short chats, and positive attitude toward any changes or questions we had were all extremely refreshing and sped the process along so quickly we were in awe. The end product was perfect; so perfect that even our incredibly picky, quality-obsessed team was delighted across the board. Couldn't recommend Avalaunch more highly!

I've been working with Farotech for a number of years and continue to be impressed with their services, creativity, level of professionalism, and return on investment. Farotech's team continuously pumps out new and exciting content, plans everything well in advance, and communicates clearly with me and my team. I would recommend their services to anyone!

I am a producer based in the east coast and I was looking for a film crew in San Francisco. I found Wild Road Films through Google and my experience with the company has been a pleasure from the start. Brian (the director) is super nice, extremely professional, and so so patient :o) He made the time to meet with me as many times as needed to go over the logistics, and the final product is lots of beautiful footage. Highly recommend this company!

Digital strategy and knowing the most cutting-edge tools being used to reach your audience is vital in todays world. Over the last few years...I have produced podcasts that have been downloaded around the world, and even been celebrated on Forbes magazine. When I was launching "Global Business Builders" - I knew I needed some critical intel in order to make the right decisions on a few major line items. Matt and his team came up with a full diagnostic that drove us to make the best possible decision on several aspects of the production. On a different note, last year I happened to refer Matt at EWR Digital another enterprise sized global prospect...and what they were able to do was epic. EWR Digital provided more suggestions, strategies, and proven concepts within 48 hours, than an entire (corporate) marketing dept did all year! What I found was that regardless what marketing, SEO, and prospect targeting concepts that worked in the past, you have to stay current for true success. Meeting EWR Digital is a way that you can to access the latest strategies, most cutting-edge digital concepts, and uncover insights for streamlined execution. Really appreciated their advise and help this year...and plan to use again!

I would highly recommend Empire Creative Marketing!! Leeanne, Teri, Rachael, Aaron, Richard and the rest of their team are extremely talented, creative, professional and super fun to work with! They built me an amazing website and have provided me with lots of great advertising materials, photography and videos that have helped my yoga retreat business grow and succeed!

I used to try and do all this myself. I was pretty good at it and I thought I was saving money. THEN Carl Moroni and Craig Stultz sat me down and convinced me to let Zellus have a shot at helping. It hurt me to agree to pay them what they told me it would cost. NOW, several years later, I realize what a blessing they have been to our business...and in making MY life less stressful. Not only do they do all our social media better than me...in spite of the fact I was worried they might lose our "brand personality"...but they design much better graphics, much quicker, and they coordinate new ideas with me that I love. From website content and updating, banner advertising, digital marketing, branding, and marketing platforms, Zellus does it all. AND now rather me having to order caps, menus, signs, aprons, name tags, etc. at separate websites, Carl and Craig are a one stop shop for ALL of that! And it turns out, they save me money too! If you are a small business owner who is multi-tasked to death and your limited marketing/social media talent and skills are stretched to the limit, you owe it to yourself and your business to consider using Zellus Marketing. They are worth EVERY penny I pay them, and more. (Don't tell them or my bill may go up. OINK OINK)

We have worked with 360 Marketing & Advertising for over twenty-two years. Tami and her staff helped us build our first website in 2001. In 2007, we started social media marketing with 360 Marketing & Advertising for our Nashville, Park City, Draper, Layton locations. Ongoing over 22 years, they have consistently helped keep our branding, strategy, graphic design, billboard, video, and tv media content updated with fast-moving platforms and technology. They provide exceptional affordable direct mail campaigns and additional ongoing marketing training for our internal staff. 360 Marketing & Advertising talent, expertise, passion, and knowledge of the business and marketing industry has helped us grow our practice locally and nationally year after year. We highly recommend other businesses to work with Tami at 360 Marketing & Advertising as she is a true professional and industry expert. In August 2018, another Layton marketing company unethically shut down our website. We called the team at 360, they immediately stepped in and helped us recover all of our intellectual property, databases, graphics and saved our website. It is nice to have a trusted partner in the business marketing field, and we highly recommend 360 Marketing & Advertising to brand your business! Dr. Barson, Surface Medical Spas

I reached out to Mike Visconti after seeing the website that the V12 team created for a friend. It was stunning. Mike, the creative director, is very easy to speak to and really listens to what you're looking to achieve. It is clear that he is passionate about helping people, not just making money, and I would recommend this company to anyone who wants a new or updated website. There's someone on the team for each aspect of the website, such as a professional photographer, graphic designer, and copywriter. I spoke to several companies before deciding to go with V12, and they were most transparent about the cost, which I really appreciated, and it was actually less then the other companies who I spoke to and was underwhelmed by their portfolios.

We reached out to Ambient Skies to help with animated explainer videos, and introduce an AI character designed to showcase our software product. Remarkable Health had previously worked with Ambient Skies and had a great experience - that past familiarity and success were a huge selling point in moving forward. Not only did the team take the time to really understand our vision and articulate the specifics, but they helped develop our concept and elevate it to a new creative level. The final videos will be used for a range of audiences, including executives, sales, and end users. Ambient Skies was extremely communicative and patient throughout the production process. I recommend them to anyone looking for professionalism, expertise with content creation, and creative strategy.

Has been one fo the best investments of my business development! Well-rounded in their offerings and very professional

I have worked with Heave Ho on at least 6 projects within the last 10 months. Andrew and his team are responsive, thorough, and are a pack of whip-smart professionals that I'm proud to work with. They're quick with an estimate, they can crew up in a heartbeat, and they often think of things that you didn't; covering bases and making you look like a pro in front of your client.

My team coordinates all the new store grand opening celebration events for Sheetz, America’s fastest-growing family-owned and operated convenience store chains, with more than 23,500 employees across Ohio, Michigan, West Virginia, and other states. With our rapid Midwest expansion, we know that with every new store we can always rely on Josh Porter and the I’AMedia Team to rise to the occasion for our photography, video, drone, and live streaming event needs. Their team is punctual, reliable, and is always able to help us capture the energy and smiles of our customers during our grand opening ceremonies. For a recent new store, we wanted to provide livestream footage for internal employees to tune in. Josh met with us in advance to plan out all the details and used his expertise to help answer all our questions, which led to thousands of our employees across six states the ability to celebrate our event with us! After every event, the turnaround time is amazing, and we receive all of our photos within a day or two ready for us to use as we need for our website and marketing purposes. We cannot recommend I’AMedia enough and are grateful for the partnership we have built together! 10/10

My company partnered with Remedy to help concept, shoot, and edit an anthem video and short video advertisements for our client in the education space within NC. Our project timeline was tight, but they couldn’t have been more professional, creative, fun, swift, and organized during our partnership. We loved working with this team and the talent they have individually and collectively is hard to come by. Great people that produce great products!

I had the opportunity to work with D-MAK Productions back in October of 2020. My company needed a major refresh of video and still imagery. I am more than satisfied with the video quality, composition of the shots, resolution of the still images, you name it. I'm a three time Emmy nominated producer/editor from the NYC area. I worked for CBS News and NBC/MSNBC for years. I come from a background where I only worked with the best in the industry. D-MAK is the most professional production company you are going to find in the Phoenix area. On top of the quality of work they were incredibly organized and helped plan everything. From finding actors, organizing our shot lists, to Covid-19 protocols and procedures they made planning a breeze. Working with this team was not only easy, it was fun and safe, in a time where having a shoot can be difficult and stressful. I can't thank you guys enough. Thank you D-MAK!

Our Agency wanted to bring more awareness to the services we provide to our military career seekers byway of a series of 3 marketing videos featuring veterans who've transitioned from military life into a new career opportunity utilizing an apprenticeship program. Marc listened and delivered. He first wanted to learn about who were are, what we do, and why. He then wanted to understand the military transitioning mindset and challenges, so that he could provide a message of opportunity beyond the uniform and what that opportunity looks like from the voices (perspectives) of the women and men who have 1st hand experience and knowledge of transitioning and the benefits of choosing an apprenticeship program as a career path. My professional background began in the Marine Corps and my entire adult life has been centered around the military community for over 30 years. I've worked as a military transition manager for over 15 years and have been party to the production of numerous military success story videos but none have hit the target as the one's produced by Lightbox Filmworks. Marc and his fantastic team of professionals managed our expectations from the beginning and maintained communication throughout the process. They made what seemed like a wish list of ideas into 3 videos that exceeded our expectations. They ensured we were apart of every step of the process, continued to ask questions and asked for feedback. Nothing was off limits to ensuring they were delivering the product as it was envisioned. Most importantly, my leadership is happy. The videos are the first of their kind to be used by a state agency and we're extremely proud of the results. I look forward to working with Marc and his phenomenal Team again! Cheers! Lisa Ransom, Director Apprenticeship &Training Division Oregon Bureau of Labor & Industries

It is always a pleasure working with Brett and the team at SC Media Group. Brett has great creativity and also understands we have a budget and schedule. I recommend SC Media Group to anyone who wants a partner not a vendor.

I'm the Project Manager at a marketing agency and have partnered with Lightswitch for all of our photoshoot and videoshoot needs over 4+ years. They are very responsive and think ahead about parts of the shoot you may be overlooking to ensure everything is prepared well. They also have a great booking dashboard, so i can book shoots on the fly without having to call and coordinate that. If you're looking to book a shoot with them, like any photo partner, just make sure you prepare documentation before the shoot. That helps organize everything to ensure you get the shots you'll need. Hours of photography, believe it or not, moves fast, so I've found this to be a fantastic tool to maximize the photographer's time and ensure we get the types of shots we need for our design work. Another huge help that Lightswitch offers is that you can book shoots anywhere in the continental US. They hire local photographers, so it eliminates the cost and headache of coordinating travel for photography teams. This has been a HUGE advantage for me to offer my clients as most of them are not local. I really recommend these guys!

Jeff shot a music video for our band. We gave him complete creative control over the whole video and it was the cleanest, and most perfect video I have ever seen. The end product was beyond anything we could have imagined and has been a great marketing tool for the band. I would recommend Noble Bison to every person I knew that was trying to make any sort of video. Jeff is also the nicest and most professional person I have ever met. He knows exactly how to make you look good and I’ve seen him make a battery look sexy through the lens. USE HIS SERVICES
