"A first rate experience from the creative help developing our very successful Kickstarter / Indiegogo script to inviting us into the editing suite for our input to delivering the project on time and on budget. 5 big stars!" - Steve Zarpas, Keytone Aid Launching a business through Kickstarter can be a daunting prospect.

"Awesome service and quick turnaround. Jim is very easy to work with and he produces high quality video." - Jinson Chan, High Side   Jinson Chan recognized the importance of having well-produced video to market your restaurant. Active social media presence can make a huge difference to your business, and High Side is an excellent example. Their "Beer Banter" series gets hundreds of views on each video and drives interest in the restaurant that otherwise might not be there. One of the easiest ways to make your social media video stand out is to take an interest in your production value. Anyone can stand in front of a webcam and speak, but with the expert help of the producers at Gearshift, your video will look professional and slick, vastly increasing your video's watchability and increasing the reach of your posts.

"Jim and Gearshift are an absolute pleasure with whom to work, I cannot recommend them highly enough. One of the most rewarding creative experiences I’ve had in a long time! I came to Jim with a script, a shot list and some rough sample shots. Jim looked at all of them and knew exactly how to take those three items and turn them into the vision I had in my head. Jim has every part of the process wired. He knows his craft and that makes the whole process so enjoyable. It produces incredible deliverables. We will use Jim for all of our marquee product videos going forward." - Justin Li, Qore Performance   Qore Performance had a revolutionary product to help our servicemen and women in the field, but they needed to get investors on board to launch the product.

"I do Trust and Estates work and one of the things we've been hearing over and over again as Tom [Foster] has helped us to make video 1) higher quality and 2) more prominent on the website is that people 'I really felt like I knew you by the time I came in.' They consistently report that the videos made them feel comfortable with me. It's also true that most of them, after they meet me, say 'You are way more serious on your videos than you are in person and you should let that come through.' But I think that could be dangerous! Video has really helped people enter a new level of trust building." - Dave Frees Dave Frees is a attorney located in Pennsylvania specializing in estate planning and he is using video on his website to convert his web visitors to clients.
