"We've been telling stories through visual media for over 20 years.  Every story has a beginning, a middle, and an end.  We set up the story, develop the action, and frame the resolution as they do in a Hollywood movie.  Thus, we already know what we want when we retain the services of a video production company.  The trick is finding someone who can tell the story in the way we want.  Joe Morrison...brings with him an Emmy award-winning background as a video journalist.  He already knows how to tell a story.  He's been doing that his entire professional career.   And, as our experience reflects...he already understands exactly what we need as story tellers.  His work for us was superb; it was as if you turned on your television and watched a movie that told a compelling and powerful story with extraordinary visual effects.  He's been behind the camera, so he knows how to bring the screen to life.  I am very picky, as anyone who knows me is well-aware, but Joe's work was spectacular.  You will not be disappointed."

"Joe was hired to simply shoot a video of our local charity, IDignity, that we could use to raise awareness and funding.  What he ended-up creating was a masterpiece that was well beyond what we had envisioned.  He worked very well with our homeless clients and crafted a moving story that will long be remembered by those who view it.  Joe provided the opportunity for me to work closely with him on the script, soundtrack and editing.  While I know this hindered production, he is not satisfied until every desire of the client is met.  The video of IDignity is a wonderful marketing tool and has been crucial to our success.  Thank you Joe for your generosity, professionalism and exceptional skill."

“Joe was contracted by me to film and edit a "welcome guest video" for First United Methodist Church of Orlando. Joe's creativity and passion for his art was revealed with amazing results. His video is adored by all who have seen it. He was more than generous with his time and talent in helping us encapsulate a representation of the DNA of our members and what we as a church family have accomplished in the past and look forward to achieving in the future. His plan of action was well designed as he followed through with a professionalism that was refreshing. He has a get it done attitude that persuades others to keep up. Joe also took upon himself the responsibility to direct, and assist in the production process. I would never consider doing another project of this scope without including Joe and his talent and experience. He is truly a professional outstanding in his field and I am honored to know him. Thanks again Joe. You are awesome! Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Expert"

               -Leon D Mausser, Witness Ministry Team Chairman First United Methodist Church of Orlando

"The video that Joe completed for introducing new guests to our congregation was first-class.  He did a fantastic job working with each of the video participants, and his level of talent is clear when it comes to editing and producing a high-quality product."

"Joe Morrison with LifeVideo did an outstanding job creating a video that was the focal point for the celebration of my parents’ 50^th wedding anniversary.

Joe took our old photos and rough ideas and created a masterpiece that we will treasure forever.  The details like timing, musical selection and other professional touches were outstanding.  Joe worked quickly but took the time necessary to make sure every detail was perfect.  The video was a HUGE hit at my parents’ party and we received many comments on its excellence from family and friends.

While Joe’s expertise was important, just as important to me was his personality and demeanor.  He was a pleasure to work with  - always charming, patient and caring about the final product.

 I would wholeheartedly recommend LifeVideo to friends and family for any upcoming special family events!"

“I worked with Joe over the course of five years while he was a photo journalist and I a reporter at the CBS TV station in Orlando, Florida. He is one of the most serious, creative, sincere, and enjoyable people I have ever worked with. The quality of his videography and editing was always superb. He's also a decent human being. And I don't mean that in a good way. I mean in it the greatest of ways.”       

      -Bob Barnard, reporter, Fox Television, Washington, D.C.

“I really enjoyed working with Joe last year on a fund raising video. He got beautiful shots and great interviews, and really produced a first class product. He oversaw every phase of production, and, it was a pleasure to work with him. I would hire him again in a heartbeat!  Top qualities: great results, personable, expert.” 

     -Suzanne McGovern, President, McGovern Communications, Orlando, FL

“I worked side by side with Joe for many years while working as a Consumer Reporter in Orlando. Joe is much more than a photographer. He's a gifted storyteller who is dedicated to his craft and to the people he works with. He strives to make a positive difference in the world. I highly recommend Joe.”    

      -Wayne Havrelly, anchor/consumer reporter, KGW-TV, Portland, OR

“Joe is a very talented and detail-oriented videographer. He sets a high standard for himself, and his professionalism and creativity present themselves in his final product. I have worked with many video crews over the years and none have come close to matching Joe's work ethic and ability to deliver a top product.”

     -Mark Falzini,archivist, NJ State Police Museum, Trenton, NJ

“Joe, thank you so much for filming and producing 
such a wonderful DVD for us. The quality of the 
product is often the first comment we get when 
someone views  it.  The DVD has been extremely 
effective in telling the story of NAGA and amputee 
golf. In 5 minutes a story is told that would have taken
much longer to verbalize.  We are proud to be using 
this marketing tool nationally.”

      -Ken Peck, Director of Marketing, 
National Amputee Golf Association

“Joe Morrison is one of the finest photographers and video editors I know. His work is consistently among the best available in the industry. He is also honest, understanding, and compassionate.”

“I've known Joe and his work for 18 years. He consistently approaches his projects with the highest degree of quality, professionalism and, most importantly, integrity. His eye is artistic, while his treatment of his subjects is caring and considerate. Joe produces inspired and inspiring video.” 

      -Craig Eicher, former anchor/reporter WKMG-TV

“Joe is an honest, hard-working man. He always had a positive outlook towards our work. His work was excellent, timely, and creative. I often requested working with Joe over other photographers because of his professionalism and depth of knowledge.”

      -Tom Abrahams, anchor/reporter, KTRK-TV, Houston, TX  

 “The heart of broadcast journalism is "the picture." Joe is an outstanding photojournalist and videographer who understands how to capture "a moment in time." His professional abilities give him a unique edge. Not only does Joe's work exhibit emotion, but it tells a story and puts things in context, perspective and focus. Marry his technical abilities with his passion, drive and work ethic and you'd be hard pressed to find someone who can match Joe's professionalism. And, the bottom line: He's a nice guy with whom you will enjoy working!”
