Face 4 Radio - EPK

Thanks to Dave Richie of Face 4 Radio for writing this great testimonial about the work I did for their EPK video! Its always fun to capture a band in action....doing what they do best. Did I mention.....HIRE THEM! They can make any event or party a memorable one, and they know all the hits.

"To say Ben was prepared is an understatement.

We hired Ben to film an EPK for our band, Face 4 Radio. The end expectation was a 3-4 minute synopsis of the band`s live set to share on YouTube.

Ben came with four video cameras (all of good to great quality), a crane for overhead shots, and a full audio recording suite. Throughout the event, Ben`s sense for key material was evident, as he surfed his way through the crowd with a handheld capturing the band/audience interaction that is so critical at each F4R show. By having the stationary cameras as well, he never missed a moment.

The final product is exactly what we were looking for: shots capturing the performance of each member, the crowd interaction, the array of music we play and the overall video quality is fantastic. Audio-wise, the music is mixed very well making it an enjoyable live listening experience.

We will go to Ben for any of our audio/visual needs moving forward and highly recommend him for any A/V job."
