Fantastic experience with Ian Stout at Vertica Productions! We created two video classes,…read more"Navigating the Nervous System" (90 min) and "Shifting Pain: The New Science of Pain and the Nervous System" (45 min). Ian made the experience as easy and low-stress as possible. He watched to make sure that my hair and clothing was arranged, made sure the audio quality wasn't interrupted by traffic sounds, and coached me on my delivery. Then during editing, he listened to my preferences and adapted to the pace and tone that I wanted for the class. We did some of the editing together so that I could have enough control, and then he did the vast majority of the tedious work on his own. He snipped "ums" and made me sound more eloquent. Along the way, he expressed appreciation and enthusiasm for the material - the fact that he valued what we created made it even more gratifying. Ian doesn't use Yelp so be sure to contact him at https://www.verticaproductions.com.

He quickly put all of the pieces together from my book of work and delivered an exceptional reel that is compelling and dynamic. He was so positive and patient, even during the revision stage. It's so difficult to find people in this industry who offer the complete package: excellent service, unsurpassed talent, and a great demeanor. Vertica Productions does it all and more. I'll be hiring them again in the future!

This is a Los Angeles quality audio house, conveniently located in Portland, Oregon…read more You get all the quality and speed you'd expect in a top-tier LA house, but with the unpretentiousness of Portland. I've worked both remotely and in-studio with them and they're great in both. I've referred them to an LA based filmmaker before who later asked "How the **** did you find these guys!?! They're amazing!" Ask for Chip. Ask for Ryan. Ask for Eric. You can't go wrong.

The owner was supportive and eager to help turn our ideas into a video that tells the story of our business. Their creative staff was top notch and gave great input on ways to produce the video on time and under budget. Five Stars!!

This review is long overdue... Elite Home AV is worth writing one. If you're looking for a local…read moreand honest TV / Audio specialist, Spencer is definitely the right choice for that. He is easy to contact, punctual, friendly, professional and very informative. His prices are straight forward. He is able to accommodate last minute appointments. He took all the necessary precautions related to Covid-19. Two TVs were installed in our house (55' & 65'). He took the time measuring the walls and placing the TVs where we exactly wanted them. He went above and beyond by offering to hide the cables for free. It did make a huge difference and made it all look amazing. I highly recommend Elite Home AV - efficient, knowledgeable and offers reasonable rates! Thank you Spencer!

Well, what can I say about Dan Pred and Video Media, that isn't already known to his repeat…read morecustomers and fellow colleagues. I've had the pleasure of knowing Dan since the mid 1990's, working side by side and have also used/worked with Video Media services since about 1997. I can safely say, with his 25+ years experience behind the camera and editing video back when it was VIDEOTAPE, he and his staff definitely knows his stuff! Not only that, but he's a nice guy, great drummer (in case you didn't know, he's the drummer for Portland's own Dan Reed Network) and one funny guy! If you need video production that is top notch and want to work with someone professional and creative, yet fun and forward thinking, I would definitely recommend Dan Pred and Video Media for your video production needs. I always look forward to working on a communications or video project when I know Dan is in the mix! Thanks again Dan.

My wife and I used Audio Professionals NW to record and live-stream the piano recital for my wife's…read moremusic studio, and we loved the whole process. The owner talked me through using the equipment that I had not used before and was very attentive to making sure we got a quality recording and high quality show for those families who were to watch the recital online. I feel like extra care was taken to make sure every one of my questions was answered. I would and will be recommending Jeremy ( the owner ) to anyone I know.

Nothing short of UNBELIEVABLE…read more Working with Audio Professionals NW falls squarely in the philosophical bucket of "Great, competent people - who actually care - make THE difference in any industry." I sit on the board of a professional organization here in Portland, and we host events throughout the year which require audio/ video services. There's no room for error when 100 paying attendees are waiting for a video to load, a presentation to display, or a panelist's answer over a PA system. But Audio Professionals NW had me covered, and from moment one. Our main contact was responsive over email and phone, and was even right on the ball when I needed him to work directly with the venue for our event. He stepped in, responded quickly, and always owned it. Best of all, I really felt I was in good hands because he used phrases like "No problem at all" and "We've got you covered." At one point, he replied to a long email I sent that had a ton of questions, by responding with numbered bullets, with each bullet being an answer to one of my questions, just to make sure he addressed everything clearly. It really made me trust their attention to detail. The tech who arrived for our event was a legit AV professional - he wasn't some washed up, hungover audio dude who just happens to know how to run a digital mixer. Not only did he know his stuff, but he knew MY stuff - he was able to tweak my own laptop when it was causing display problems....and I'm a tech geek. But he was also a service professional, and here's why: - He arrived exactly at the time he promised at our venue. - He set everything up without any hitches (not one "hmmm...I wonder why that's not working" moment. Translation: no stress for me.) - He tested everything multiple times to make sure it was perfect...and did it 45 minutes earlier than I had expected to start testing, which was a huge timing win. - He got the volumes right on every single element - all the mics, the video, the general room volume, etc. We didn't need to adjust anything even once during our event. (The equipment was either new and/ or in great working condition. It was spotless and current.) - The wireless microphones were all fully charged, so we had six hours of time on them. (This is a detail that requires foresight, yet which is vital to any event.) - He made an effort to make everything LOOK good - the projector table, the mic stands, the wires, etc. - He was nice, never impatient, and totally reassured me about every little question I was nervous about. - He even returned at exactly the time he and I discussed, then cleaned up, and was on his way as if he'd never been there. Professional, easy to work with, and unobtrusive. Even my colleagues came up to me after our event to say the AV was amazing. Nobody EVER does that about the AV!! The difference is that Audio Professionals NW were extremely COMPETENT and actually CARED to get it right and CARED to be decent people in the process. It's those traits that make Portland the place that it is, and, quite honestly, it's those traits that keep the world from turning into a heap of steaming manure. How many times do you hire a company - for any service - and they just do the minimum, and YOU'RE the one left with the stress and the troubleshooting, having to manage THEM? Now think of the exact opposite and you have Audio Professionals NW.
