I can't say enough about what a pleasure it was to work with Chris (and Cyn.) It was my first experience using a videographer for business purposes and I don't think it would have been so successful if I was working with any other company. Chris is extremely professional, very insightful and simply the best at what he does. I appreciated that Chris brought out the best in all of the team members who we chose to put in front of the camera... great coaching for anyone who is nervous in front of the camera!!! The people who appeared to be the most nervous about being in front of a camera ended up having the best on screen presence!!! Chris' editing process was very quick and simple - I was impressed with how little I needed to do in order for Chris to capture the exact message we were aiming for... It's been a long time since I've worked with someone who is so good at what they do... it was a down right pleasure in every regard. I HIGHLY recommend Chris Ryan Video Production to ANYONE considering hiring a videographer for business purposes or otherwise. read more

Chris Ryan of Ryan Video Productions is an incredibly talented producer, director, videographer and editor. I worked with Chris on a video piece for a nonprofit organization that supports the public school community in Carlsbad, California. The project scope was demanding and our expectations were high, as we needed someone who understood our vision and could devise a plan, shoot and final product with minimal resources. After an initial meeting, I knew Chris was the right fit. He is an intentional communicator, gets to the core of a story's direction with a thorough discovery period, and takes care to direct shoots that match a clear script, storyboard, timeline and budget. Chris is available throughout the process and frequently checks in to make sure the direction is on target. In total, Chris completed four variations for one video idea. I know he went above and beyond to deliver an outstanding product for our cause. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with him. read more

A couple months ago I was approached by a colleague to be in a video she was creating for her business. In my day to day work, great videos and photos are very important, so I was more than happy to help support my friend for the video she was creating for her business. When I got to the video shoot, I was very impressed with the caliber of excellence and professionalism that Chris Ryan brought to the table. I've worked with other videographers- and this time, I was to be subject on camera, not just 'behind the scenes'. I'm a hard core introvert (most people do not believe that...but it's very true.) Being in front of a camera is not my comfort zone. Chris...made it amazingly easy to be comfortable and confident on camera. He approaches his work as if he's your best friend. His professionalism, demeanor, and amazing attitude put you right at ease. He has an eye for the 'look' the video needs. His background has him very well prepared to help you speak on camera in a natural way. He guided every aspect of my friend's video shoot- and it was a lot of fun to do this for her with him behind the video camera. Best part: to see his finished work. Stellar! I've already recommended him to others I know and look forward to booking time with him for my businesses in the future! read more

A truly polished and professional video creator!! Chris Ryan filmed a series of customer testimonial videos for me and I am blown away by how they came out!!!

Chris was so professional and thorough, I knew I was in good hands the entire time we were planning these videos. He was so wonderful behind the camera and came to the shoot really prepared and organized. I would recommend Chris to anyone who needs business videos! read more

I met Chris Ryan through a mutual business contact. Chris uses video to paint a picture and tell a story about your business or special event.

His video captured all the energy of the business expo and it was used for post marketing and to promote the follow year's business expo. I refer Ryan Video Productions to my clients. One recent project we worked together was for SmartCareMd. I was onsite for the production. Chris is very professional and knows how to bring the best out on camera and to best represent the goal of the project.

Chris recently live-streamed an entire day of swim meets for our kids' swim club, and it was a huge hit! Due to strict Covid-19 safety protocols, no parents and spectators have been allowed on deck at the few swim meets that have been allowed during the past year. Chris was wonderful from the moment we connected, and was willing to work with our less than large budget. He and his crew were professional, and delivered a high quality live stream feed that were made accessible to the several hundred families at our club. It was wonderful to be able to watch our kids race again, and Ryan Video Productions made it all possible. We would wholeheartedly recommend Chris, and hope we can engage his services again in the future. read more

When our company needed some business videos done we contacted several video production companies. Not one of them came to see us as well prepared as Chris Ryan. He took the time to learn about our business before even making a presentation. Instead of starting with what he would do for us, he took the time to find out what we needed, what we wanted to convey to our customers. What a breath of fresh air! Once the strategy was in place Chris took care of everything--storyboard, scripting, shot list, and everything else needed. He was very gracious and professional when we decided that our original approach on one video didn't work for us. He worked to get us what we wanted and had no prima donna attitude about his work. He also worked well with our design and digital media teams--and that can be an interesting dynamic. The company video he did for us completely conveyed who we are and what we represent. The product and brand videos were totally on point and will be very effective in creating and maintaining brand awareness. All in all we highly recommend Chris Ryan with Ryan Video Productions for your video needs. read more
