Tim Frakes provides comprehensive video-production services in a “one-man band” – no big departments or bureaucracy to deal with – just one-on-one, personalized service. And he’s not a producer who will churn out your product in a cookie-cutter approach. Tim gets into the subject matter and becomes passionate about it, so you end up with a better product that has his passion as much as yours in it.

Working with the talented Tim Frakes is both a blessing and a privilege. Tim is a creative problem-solver who clearly understands the artistry and science of communicating emotionally and effectively through sight and sound. I highly recommend Tim to any organization that is looking for innovative solutions delivered with the highest level of efficiency and professionalism. He is truly a gifted and knowledgeable videographer and editor — on par with any of the best I have worked with at some of the top video editing facilities in Hollywood.

Tim Frakes has worked with us on numerous projects over the years. His work has helped our ministry grow from a program within a unit of a denomination to a separately incorporporated, thriving 501(c)3 ministry. Tim understands our vision and mission and with his insight and expertise is able to communicate it clearly to our audience- men. He does so humility, humor and integrity.

Tim was hired to video an event. He arrived well ahead of when the event started. He created a temporary backdrop to cover a distracting background. He created a recording with excellent audio and video quality. He remained in the background thereby not distracting the audience from the presentations. Within a few days after the event, he provided video downloads for uploading to the internet and hard copy of an event DVD. If you want responsiveness, high quality and the tools to improvise on the spot, you should consider hiring Tim Frakes as your videographer.

We've worked with Tim on several projects and found him to be a consummate pro. He can follow instructions and scripts that are presented and, if need be, can come up with his own scripts and flow. We have used Tim's talents for everything from short, one-off interview footage to a 3-hour+ video documentary series. His ability to work with us during the editorial and refinement process has been sterling and delivered with a side benefit of cheerfulness. On top of it all, he knows how to juggle multiple projects and deliver them on time. Highly, highly recommended!

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I began my media career at the West Chicago Press, a weekly newspaper in DuPage, County Illinois. After high school, I enrolled at Harding University in the school of journalism. They required spelling so I moved to radio. That led me into television. The rest, they say, is history!

  • What types of customers have you worked with?

    I produce documentary and image video for non-profit, faith-based, broadcast and corporate clients. Recent productions include a six episode series on the history of Christianity in America, image videos for faith-based groups, a series of three music videos produced in rural Haiti and a Jazz concert series.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Non-profit organizations looking to broaden their development base and reach new audiences, need to focus on story-telling. Testimonials, presented in a creative, social-media friendly format get your audiences talking to each other about you! That's great marketing.
