“Tight deadlines didn’t seem to phase contentsource in the least. They consistently produced high-quality videos, regardless of the workload. Chris Sheppard’s personality makes him easy to work with and I quickly became comfortable with him.”

— Tony Campo, Art Director

“IDEAgraphics has been in business since 1971 and I have owned it for 20 years - I have worked with many photographers and videographers, and I can attest that Chris Sheppard far surpasses his counterparts.

My studio is used to having to use many people to accomplish a final product – however, Chris is soup to nuts. Chris is excellent in meeting with my clients, learning what they are looking for, creating a plan, a script, walking through the best way to accomplish the end result and bringing it all together into the final product.

Chris makes it easy. He always finds a way to work with people to facilitate what is needed - this is key when working with people who aren’t necessarily comfortable in front of a camera. Chris is very much a team player, I have clients that he works with start to finish and others that I work with him and the client on their project. I trust him whole heartedly with the task at hand.

Furthermore, I have never missed a deadline or deliverable with Chris and he has been very easy to work with on any small edits (which are rarely needed). I strongly recommend him to all clients and have not needed to look for a backup option as Chris can do it all.”

“Chris Sheppard has provided video services for Microwave Journal at seven trade shows during the past seven years. As the magazine’s sole videographer at a show, Chris records, then does the post production on some three dozen in-booth demos, interviews and panel sessions recorded over a two- or three-day show.

Chris is a pleasure to work with. He’s organized, flexible, positive and amazingly calm, despite the hectic, compressed schedule of a trade show. Having worked both sides of the camera during his career, Chris uses his experience as a TV reporter to calm nervous and anxious “talent” not used to staring into a camera.

Judging from the final product, his creativity and post-production skills are excellent: he integrates B-roll and creates bumpers to catch and keep short attention spans. And he turns the raw videos quickly, within a week or two following the trade show.

For video production on site or post, I recommend Chris without reservation.

“I highly recommend contentsource LLC for any content development-related project - specifically video, graphics creation and consulting. Chris’s work is timely, detail-oriented and outstanding.

I met Chris in 2017 at one of our industry’s most important events, EDI CON USA, where I was exhibiting. It quickly became apparent to me that Chris is easy to work with and knows what he is doing, and since then we’ve worked on several different projects together including video content and booth graphics creation.

Running a technical sales company is demanding and time-consuming – Chris has made it easy to get exactly what I need well within my deadlines and is friendly, available, and brings a positive attitude to the table. As an industry veteran, I’d say in full confidence that Chris’s creative talents along with his comprehensive understanding of how marketing and advertising works differentiate him from others in his field.

Chris is the person to go to if you have a need for content or marketing materials – I strongly recommend him as a person I trust to get the job done well.”

“Chris worked closely with the Director of Technical Sales and myself to develop the script, content, and production of our videos. He was quick to learn the technical aspects of our product and message. Chris was able to simplify the technical material with video, illustrations, and story-telling.

We have worked with other talented videographers, but what sets Chris apart is his desire to make sure the end product exceeded our expectations. It is without hestitation that I recommend contentsource LLC to any company looking for talented professionals.”

— Michael Harrington | President, Epoxies Etc.

“I had the opportunity to work with Chris in development of a our new Corporate video. Chris did a fantastic job in capturing our vision through creative visuals, concise and fluid editing as well as professional voice over narrative. Every step of the way he offered insightful feedback and helped us focus on the core messaging. He was always prompt, professional with our entire staff and had a deep understanding of the video and editing equipment and process. The project was completed on time and to our budget. I wouldn't hesitate to utilize Chris for future projects and would highly recommend him to any potential new clients. Well done Chris!”

— Norm Brodeur | Infinite Electronics

“I worked with Chris at SLN for three years and interacted with him for video projects and related content. We also went on several field assignments together for clients during those years.

Chris is very diligent, smart and professional… He is also a fun colleague to work with.

His video work is extremely well presented and produced, and clients were always pleased with his efforts.”
