Review from Google · view on GoogleI have worked with Maximum Flavor Media on a few video recording and editing projects and I highly recommend them! One project we worked on was a video recording session and the other was creating a compilation video for a virtual event. Mitch and his team are professional, responsive and organized, and have been thought partners with our projects and made great recommendations to raise the quality of our projects. They even came through and provided us with a back-up recording of one of our projects when we couldn't find the original footage years after the original recording took place. Mitch is very easy to work with, went the extra mile to support our team with our projects and seamlessly understood the vision and goals of our project. Their team delivered our project on time and on budget - they're a great small, local business to work with.
