WHAT ARE MY CLIENTS SAYING?

“With Mikey, you know he’ll provide the lens to tell your story well. He’s a natural at putting people at ease, so you get a sense of who they are. That makes each story unique. He’s professional, considered, meets deadlines and is a joy to work with.”

Simone Sampos, Internal Communications Specialist, Victoria University

“Mikey was able to make sense of my raw footage and vision and created a polished video edit. He understood my vision from beginning to end and created a cohesive story line from hundreds of files. Not only was I given a complete edit, but he provided me with information and guidance to lead me towards being more independent from editors in the future. A true artist, creator, and excellent technician.”

Eleanor Moseman, Visual Storyteller

“Michael supported our project by filming fundraising material for an expedition we are planning. Michael was very professional and outstanding with my children. We enjoyed our experience and look forward to working with him again.”

Rod McCurdy, Expedition Mariam

“Nothing is impossible when working with Mikey, no matter what wild ideas I come up with, Mikey always manages to pull them off. We worked together on a mountaineering film and it was thrilling to see how effortlessly Mikey completed scenes, I laughed like crazy when I watched the forest camp scene for the first time. When he worked on my documentary of the Skeleton Coast, his colour grade brought the film to life in a way I hadn’t seen before. He comes armed with great ideas and puts a lot of energy into ensuring the job gets done on time and at a very high level. We’re going to make more films together.”

Kasimir Zierl, Film Director
