“If you are considering whether you should invest in hiring Austin to shoot a video for you, DO IT.”
When I saw Austin’s video work and pricing structure online before I contacted him, I almost thought it was too good to be true. The good news is, it wasn’t. He is the real deal. Austin had a first edit to us within a week of the shoot. That kind of turnaround is unheard of when you are an indie artist like me. Austin is a music aficionado and gifted pianist. I believe his musical knowledge really informs his shot choices and the timing of his edits. He also has an incredible eye for light, color, and the atmosphere of a room.
“His ability to transform ideas into stunning visuals is truly impressive.”
I had an incredible experience working with Austin for the second time. He is professional, creative, and genuinely cares about bringing your vision to life. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented filmmaker.
Austin is extremely talented at his craft. He’s kind, patient, reasonable, and very professional. I now have three music videos, and plan to continue working with him again in the near future!
Austin is professional, patient, and easy to work with. I definitely look forward to working with him again and would highly recommend him.
Their video: The Last Time We Made Love “He will blow your mind with his masterful skills and I would give him a billion stars if I could.”
On top of being amazingly friendly, Austin is an artistic genius with an unstoppable work ethic. No one is more passionate, talented, hard working, and more cutting edge than Austin. I couldn’t be happier with what he created for me and I can’t wait to work with him again!
Austin did an incredible job for our music video. From helping plan locations and shots all the way through to the post production he went above and beyond.
Austin shot a couple music videos for us and they came out amazing! Super easy to work with and helpful with music marketing through Facebook. Highly recommend his services.
Austin is professional, efficient and detailed. Had the greatest experience working with him. HIGHLY recommend!
“He knew exactly what we were looking for in a music video.”
Working with Austin was an absolute pleasure. The quality of his work is outstanding. He was friendly and provided valuable guidance during the shoot, as well as during the editing process. If you are looking for a professionally shot video, look no further.
“So professional, so efficient, so quick. Everything was on time.”
I was so impressed by Austin I cannot even express. We got the videos back super fast and when we worked on the ad, he understood exactly what I meant even though my English is broken. I would recommend him to any artist or anyone who wants a high-quality production.
“Dope sessions with Austin from production and editing to the final product.”
Amazing at his craft. Very professional and creative as we had a lot of fun through the entire process. HIGHLY recommended.
