Video Services Testimonials from our valued customers:
02/27/2010 Digital Video Services - Amanda from Inver Grove Heights I am so happy to have all of my VHS and 8mm tapes now on DVDs! I no longer have to worry about losing wonderful family memories as the tapes get older. Home Video Studio did a high quality job and I would recommend them to anyone. The turnaround time was also quick, and all of the services offered by Home Video Studio were correctly advertised. Thanks!
02/11/2010 Digital Video Services - Gina from Robbinsdale My mom wanted a CD of her old Reel to Reel tapes for a long time. Seeing the tears in her eyes on Christmas Eve told the whole story.
02/10/2010 Digital Video Services - Tom from St Paul I was very pleased with your service. I was able to get film transfer and digital transfer to the same DVD which other services were unable or unwilling to do. I was able to get followup service in a timely and helpful fashion. Thank you very much.
02/10/2010 Duplications - Juan Tavarez from Fridley Minnesota very professional and an excellent services.
02/10/2010 Photo Videos - Candyce Sterling from LaPointe Wisconsin I brought in over 100 pictures, with music that I was not sure where it would be appropriate in the video to Kirk. I had grouped the pictures together as asked. When I arrived we sat down, I explained what I wanted and Kirk explained ways he could put the video together. I trusted him and was extremely happy with the finished product. We did preview the video before Kirk finished, it was nice to be able to make changes if needed. The entire video along with the music was professionally completed and I was extremely happy with the entire experience.
02/03/2010 Digital Video Services - John from Shoreview Letting go of one's treasured memories can be a difficult thing to do, by after utilizing Kirk's courier service and receiving timely, quality products in each case-- I say "Just Do It " when considering your next audio/visual preservation project.
Someday, the "stuff of life" will be pared away, but you will still have the important memories.
Thank you for your work, Kirk !
01/14/2010 Duplications - Susan from Inver Grove Heights Kirk, I can't thank you enough for the great work you do for us. I will definitely refer you to others on campus.
01/13/2010 Video Production - Janis Lamont from Burnsville Thanks Kirk for the wonderful promo DVD you designed for our agency. You made what seemed to be an overwhelming project, a real breeze. I appreciated your attention to creative design, detail and upscale product quality. I have enjoyed working with you and look forward to working with you again in the future.
11/30/2009 Photo Videos - Kirk from Apple Valley Gave Kirk 500 + pictures, 15 or 20 songs and about 2 days to make a DVD slide show for my wife's funeral. WOW! Even if he had two weeks I would not have expected to get somthing so special. With almost no direction from me, he perfectly matched the pictures with the best songs. eg (Thats What Friends Are For) was with paired up with pictures only of my wife and friends. Keep in mind, he had to study these pictures to figure out the difference between family and friends as we had never met. After watching the DVD I realized it wasn't about the funeral. It's for my kids,grandkids & me , memories for the rest of our lives. Thanks so much Kirk
10/07/2009 Video Production - Brian & Jena from Lakeville In January, 2009, my wife and I hired Kirk to video tape our wedding. Looking back, it was the best wedding decision we made. Not only was Kirk easy to work with, but he captured all of our precious wedding moments that will last my lifetime. Since getting married my wife and I have watched our wedding video multiple times, it was the best decision we made. When your wife cries tears of joy everytime she watches the video, you know it was done well. I would highly recommend Home Video Studio to anyone needing to capture precious moments like we did, our finished product was both high quality and professional!
10/01/2009 Video Production - Diana from Apple Valley Our daughter's wedding video is wonderful! We were thrilled with the quality and the content. We cried all over again when we watched it. We can't wait to send a copy to our son who missed the wedding because he is serving in Iraq. Sharing these memories with those who couldn't attend is a wonderful thing. You captured the beauty and the specialness on the ceremony and the celebrating at the reception. It was way more than expected. Thank you so much!
08/27/2009 Video Editing - Nita Murphy from Apple Valley Just wanted to touch base on the video you produced for me. It was a 'hit' as you probably already knew. My husband attempted to put it on a big screen, but the projection was not very clear in the reception hall so we opted to put it on the TV with a DVD player prior to the program start time. There was such a "SWARM" of people circulating around the TV, it made me wonder if I should even start the short program!!
07/16/2009 Photo Videos - Richie from Eagan Thank you so much for making the DVD, it's truly amazing!
06/07/2009 Video Editing - Bob Klatt from Prior Lake Kirk, you made a great first impression with me. I sincerely appreciated your professionalism, commitment and timely follow through on my promotional video project. You met my deadline and exceeded my expectations. The result was a polished video that incorporated seamless transitions. To sum it up, your deliverable was "picture" perfect! Thank you for your excellent work.
05/04/2009 Video Editing - Larry Stanley from Apple Valley Just a quick comment that we were (finally!) able to give Phil and Angel the wedding video last night. They were
absolutely thrilled. It was a great gift for them. I am guessing it is going to get a lot of airplay at their
house today!
But what I wanted to comment on what how good the video really was. I was very impressed with what you were able to do with rather limited inputs. This actually far surpassed my expectations! Everything, from the menuing,
how you composed and put together the different camera shots (even a split screen!), the inclusion of their
video, and the photo album was excellent. Thank you for creating something so good for them, this definitely was
worth it.
03/18/2009 Photo Videos - Stephen Willwerscheid from Saint Paul, Minnesota Two years ago our company, Willwerscheid Funeral Home & Cremation Service, began a search for a video production company that could meet our needs. Our needs were simple provide a memorial tribute DVD for the families we serve that is of high quality, affordable, and timely. Kirk Douglas has exceeded our expectations in every way. Often we require a turn around time of less than 36 hours. Even with those time constants the DVD Tributes have been of the highest quality. You can see some of those videos for yourself by visiting our website at www.willwerscheid.com. I would recommend Kirks services to anyone needing video production or transfers.
01/15/2009 Photo Videos - Debbie from St. Paul I'll tell you a little story about my Mom:
When she was born in 1927, her mother wanted her to be named "Peggy." The priest refused to baptize her because there was no St. Peggy! So, Grandma went to Plan B and named her Margaret. Mom never liked that name, and always went by Pegge. I had that name engraved on the gravestone, much to my father's disappointment. He told me he always liked the name Margaret.
You'll notice a slight difference in spelling of that name. Mom told me it was because when she was learning how to write in script, she couldn't make 3 loops in a row with the g, g and y. Being a very creative child, she changed the "y" to "e", way ahead of the curve!
Mom was such a fun person, my best friend. I decided to share this with you because her DVD (and Dad's) were so true to them as people. Yes, I know the pictures we chose had a lot to do with it, but so did the display sequence and the music you included. Thanks you again for helping to make 2 extremely sad and difficult occasions a little comforting. We will treasure these DVD's as we move on the healing path.
Wishing you all the best,
Debbie
10/15/2008 Photo Videos - Hans from West St Paul In response to your phone call-
Yes, I've viewed your work, "The Farm 1968 - 2007." It is all I wanted it to be, a pictorial history of my farming experience.
Good work!! Thank you.
09/15/2008 Video Production - Amanda & Adam from Lakeville We absolutely love the the beautiful video you made for us!
09/09/2008 Home Movie Transfer - Melissa from Minneapolis I contacted Kirk on behalf of another party to have their home videos turned into DVDs. Initially I contacted Home Video Studio and another local Media Studio for test runs and the Home Video Studio end result was substanially more professionsl then the other location's results. As a third party, totally removed from the final product, I can tell you that not only is Kirk friendly with a very healthy dose of customer service (which is rare) but also that the end product is loved and treasured by the family for which it was created.
I will unequivocally recommend Kirk and Home Video Studio in the future!
07/23/2008 Video Production - K. Brunner from Farmington Kirk provided video production services for my first major instructional DVD, and I could not have been more pleased with his service. I had taught this DVD as a class over 50 times, and I knew *exactly* what I wanted when it came time to put it into a digital format. Kirk was able to give me just what I wanted in a timely and professional manner, and he produced a finished product that is polished and sophisticated. The DVD has already been reviewed by a major trade magazine, and was given glowing praise. We are now busy planning project #2, and I look forward to working with Kirk for a long time to come. The man takes pride in his work, and it shows!
