Testimonials

 
Teaming up with Chasnoff Media is hands down the BEST thing I have done for my brand! Chasnoff Media has been such an integral part of the success and growth of my business. I wanted to create a web series that was unique and fun; something that showcased who I was as a person, and the lifestyle of a Portlander. I approached Gabe with a very broad idea of what I envisioned, and he immediately “got it.” He had so many great ideas of how to bring it all together, how to stay focused, and really helped me hone in on exactly what I wanted my message to be from a strategic perspective. Gabe is professional, organized, stays on task, and really great at bringing it all together. He is super talented, and if you are looking for a down to earth creative professional who will help you build your brand through video, look no further! He is simply the best!

We are incredibly pleased with the entire experience and highly recommend Chasnoff Media for your next project.

Gabe is a professional through and through. From creative scriptwriting, to excellent communication, and great attention to detail, he is a pleasure to work with. He also gives fantastic direction in a session: clear, concise, and helpful. He has a wonderful way of communicating the ideas and different tones in scripts. From start to finish, he made the project an enjoyable one to work on.

It was such a joyous experience to work with Gabe Chasnoff (Chasnoff Media) on our video “creation”! From start to finish, Gabe made this process so smooth, delightful and exciting! He is a true artist and professional, with an amazing gift of being an active listener. Gabe was able to synthesize all of our thoughts on the vision for the video, input valuably to our discussions, and then create a spectacular and powerful video production, bringing the vision to life. In addition to his artistic and listening skills, Gabe is patient and calm, holding and managing deadlines perfectly. Our unique and creative video production exceeded our high hopes and had a huge impact on our audience. 10 stars (out of 5)!

I am so glad we partnered with Chasnoff Media to produce promotional videos for our new website. This is our first foray into using video as a marketing tool. Gabe made the scripting, filming, and strategy process easy and fun. Gabe listened to our needs and created videos that capture our message perfectly. His advice on how to leverage the videos for different channels has been really helpful. Gabe’s direction and expertise have given confidence to continue to use video to promote our brand and services. We will definitely be doing more projects together.

If you need stand-out branding or promotional videos, Gabe is your go-to. By beginning each project with a thorough interview process, Gabe is able to distinctly and cleverly identify the important threads needed to weave your brand story together into a masterpiece. His process is highly collaborative; he takes the lead when necessary but is also a keen listener and graciously able to receive feedback and critique. Gabe is an artist who has mastery of lighting techniques, camera angles, music integration, and all the little details that make the difference between a good video and a great video. What truly separates Gabe from other videographers I have worked with is his sincere effort made to understand not only the goals and purpose of the current project, but the intricacies and emotion of the featured company itself. These efforts and depth of understanding reflect clearly in the final stories that his videos reveal. Gabe is and will continue to be a highly valued partner for Stages Cycling!

We’ve had a branding workshop today w/ Gabe Chasnoff, and his structure, inspiration and guidance was exceptional. We’re hiring him again for a follow up workshop and videos as well. Thank you Gabe - great work!
— Jonas Seyppal, CEO, Muhlhaus Coffee
Working with Gabe on our recent documentary was a profoundly rewarding experience. He took the time necessary to understand our program and our goals, and delivered a beautiful product. Working with a school means working with crazy scheduling issues, children, administrators and teachers, and Gabe brought a warm demeanor, a collaborative attitude and a great sense of humor to the project.

Gabe took everyone’s feedback into consideration when finalizing the product but still guided us from a technical standpoint - pushing back gently when we needed him to, while taking into consideration the varied perspectives and needs our stakeholders brought to the table.

I recommend Gabe wholeheartedly and with tremendous admiration for his talent, passion for his craft, and ability.

Our work with Gabe Chasnoff at Camp Ramah in Wisconsin has been nothing less than superb. Gabe produces outstanding videos, is extraordinarily responsive to our feedback and wishes, and helps us by constantly suggesting new ideas and directions. The entire process is unbelievably rewarding - as an interaction with him and also in our marketing efforts!

I have had the opportunity to work with many video producers over the years, and Gabe is clearly at the top of the list. He is creative, professional, and knows how to get the job done on time and on budget. Whether we are producing a historical piece, a promo for an upcoming event, or a fundraising pitch, he is able to produce a piece that resonates with all of our audiences. He is also a pleasure to work with and truly an expert in his field. I highly recommend him!
— Tami Warshawsky, Director of Development, Solomon Schechter Day School of Metropolitan Chicago
Working with Gabe and his team the past few summers has been an absolute delight. Gabe is able to take a broad concept, construct a detailed story board, and then produce an amazing finished product. Over the past few years of working with Gabe, we have heard from so many parents and campers that they pick up the phone and call us in the camp office after viewing the videos that Gabe produced. The fundraising videos that we have made over the past few years have also payed dividends of many times their original costs. Each summer we find a new way to segment our market, and have asked Gabe to produce a video targeting this new segment with a specific message. I highly recommend working with Chasnoff Media!

I needed an updated headshot for my LinkedIn profile and reached out to Gabe for his photography services. I had not taken a professional photo in a long time, but Gabe was great and walked me through the entire process- from how to select appropriate attire all the way through the selection and processing of the final images. Gabe was professional, fun to work with, and did an excellent job- all in a very short period of time. I’m very happy with the end product and would highly recommend his services to anyone looking for high quality photo /video work.

Campers and parents share with me often how much they feel excited and inspired by our camp video. “My daughter watches it over and over again because it fills her with memories of camp,” one parent even shared with me. I have to admit, even though I have seen the video over a hundred times myself while showing it as various recruitment sessions, I still enjoy watching it every time because Gabe did such an incredible job of capturing our site, program, and community in an authentic and beautiful way!
— Rabbi Sarah Shulman, Director, Camp Ramah in Northern California
Gabe was quick to respond with a promotional video project that a team of us quickly realized we would need professional guidance and assistance with. He was enthusiastic, sharp, and energetic right off the bat. He took every bit of last minute stress out of our hands as he crafted the story board and worked his magic in post production. The video hit social media, gaining immediate momentum and success. We truly couldn’t have made this happen without his help and expertise. Highly recommended, and you’ll even have a ton of fun working with him in his process!
