  • January 2017

    Jared could not have done a better job on this shoot. Under a tight deadline and turnaround Jared got us expert footage with crisp, gorgeous framing, an A+, cutting interview, and delivered his materials smoothly, on time, with a smile. There is no question that he elevated the content by driving the core of the concept and translating that into visual storytelling. I will absolutely hire him again, and you should count yourself if you have the opportunity to hire him. Sincerely, Dan Leonard Supervising Producer 60 Second Docs
