Voiceover Review from Patrick Hoy
I have been a professional TV Presenter for over a decade, but was now looking at expanding the work I do to include Voiceover work. As such, I needed a highly professional & compelling set of Voiceover showreels produced for me to use as a calling card to find Agent representation in this area...as well as to share with Production companies who could potentially hire me for voiceover work. I worked with Synima to lay down 10 tracks at one of their studios. Upon completion of the actual recording, I then immediately met with the assigned team to discuss the additional audio enhancements I wanted them to include in the finished product. While I definitely had specific ideas and instructions for what enhancements I believed I wanted in the deliverables, I felt confident that the team I was working with fully understood my vision...AND that they themselves were extremely creative, and that they would definitely be able to add additional value to the vision I had. My instinct was absolutely correct about this, and the final two showreels that they delivered to me exceeded my expectations! I have shared the work they did for me with many others, and they too have been as impressed with the work. I was very satisfied with the entire process from start to finish - and I honestly look forward to working with Synima again in the future.

Digital Marketing Review from Piers Henriques PhD
We worked with Synima on a celebrity-led feature series exploring the issues of alcohol and the family. Our national charity was looking for a partner for our ambassador to film nine documentary quality one-minute films, each telling a personal story and ending on a call to action. From the outset and on first meeting, Synima were incredible partners for the project. They understood the brief as a direct appeal, and ran with the strength of initial pitch. The creative team then had the skills and expertise to hugely enhance the original vision and carry the process with calm and enthusiastic professionalism . The final product was of an outstanding quality, delivered on time and any wrinkles quickly ironed out. The campaign is still ongoing but has generated well over one and a half million *organic* views. Fantastic conversions in terms of service awareness and CTA sign ups. Our celebrity influencer was delighted with the material as overall content and is keen to come back for more. Which we definitely will in the new year.

Video Production Review from Sean Dibsy
We worked with Feel Right Inc. to produce a commercial for our mortgage business, and the experience was great from beginning to end. Anthony and his team really understood our vision and helped us create a mortgage commercial that felt professional, modern, and authentic. They made the entire video production process easy, kept everything organized, and delivered a final commercial that we were genuinely excited to share. The video gave us a strong piece of marketing content that helped our mortgage company look more credible and stand out online. I'd highly recommend Feel Right Inc. to any mortgage lender, broker, real estate professional, or financial services company looking for high-quality commercial video production.

Working with Anthony (Tony) and the team at Feel Right Inc. was an incredible experience. As a startup, this was our first time building a video of this kind to support our upcoming marketing campaign, and Tony took the time to guide us and helped us understand all the production stages so we felt confident throughout the entire process.We are building Ahmi, a brand-new category of hardware product, and Anthony really took the time to understand our brand, what the product does, and our specific use cases for toddlers and infants. Because we were still in the MVP stage with our prototype, he was incredibly collaborative in figuring out how to effectively film the product. Through smart execution and creative direction, he ensured we could provide customers with an authentic, compelling view of exactly how the product functions in a real home environment.Finally, Tony was extremely open to iterating on the script and made smart adjustments to ensure the final video aligned perfectly with our startup's goals. If you're a startup looking for a dedicated video production partner who truly invests in your vision, I highly recommend Feel Right Inc.

Matt Quagliano's Review Sourced from Google
After several difficult experiences with website designers a friend of mine recommended Annette and her group at HomeRun Creative Services. They delivered everything I asked for and gave me an honest time frame and met the goal. (Which is impressive since I was slow in getting them what they needed). I highly recommend HomeRun Creative Services for any Web marketing. Additionally, their response time to me is usually within an hour of my call. Great Operation.Matt QuaglianoKeller Williams Real EstateBuffalo, New York

Our day to day interaction with our creative director (shout out to Simon!) is fantastic and something I've come to enjoy. The value and quality of deliverables we receive from the team is worth every penny! The work we have received from Designity always aligns with our initial request and is delivered on time with an exceptional level of detail. Submitting new project requests is easy and I appreciate the collaboration we get from the Designity when working through projects.

I have been using Otherwisz for my business for about 10 years. Mark and his team have developed multiple websites for me, created logos, brochures etc.I have never been disappointed with their work or service. I interviewed many companies, but ultimately what made the difference for me was that Otherwisz took the time to get to know me and my business so that they could create work that was unique and true to our company culture. That level of care and personal attention has continued to this day. Their team is always responsive if I have an issue with the website, and treats me as if I am their most important customer.My website will be due for an update soon and I will be returning to Otherwisz without a second thought.

Frequently Asked Questions About Video Production Companies in New York
What are the red flags when evaluating video production companies in New York?
The clearest red flag is a reel full of impressive work that has nothing to do with your project type, budget, or distribution channel.
Video production companies in New York range from boutique studios with one specialty to full-service shops that'll take any brief, and the ones who overpromise are rarely the ones who overdeliver.
Watch for these specifically:
No case studies with measurable outcomes, only aesthetic work
Vague answers about who on the team will be on your project
No questions asked about your distribution channel, target audience, or brief before pitching
Pressure to sign before seeing a detailed production timeline
Portfolio full of one format (e.g., brand films) when you need another (e.g., product demos)
If they can't tell you what went wrong on a past project and how they handled it, that's a red flag too.
What do New York video production companies charge that most buyers don't expect?
The highest hidden costs are revisions, music licensing, talent fees, and location permits, none of which are typically included in a quoted rate.
The most common surprises:
Revisions: Many contracts include one round; additional cuts are billed separately
Music licensing: Stock tracks are cheap, but cleared commercial music can add thousands
Talent fees: Actors, voiceover artists, and on-screen talent are usually quoted separately
Location permits: Shooting on NYC streets or in certain venues requires permits that cost real money and take time to secure
Color grading and sound mix: Sometimes bundled, sometimes not
Always ask for an itemized quote, not a package price, and clarify what revision rounds are included before signing.
How do I know if a video production agency's reel actually applies to my project?
A reel only applies to your project if it was made at a comparable budget, for a similar distribution goal, and by the same people who would work on your account.
Ask three things before you let a reel impress you:
What was the budget for that project? If their best work was done at 5x your budget, the comparison is meaningless.
What was the distribution goal? Brand films, TV commercials, and Instagram Reels are different crafts.
Who directed and edited it, and will those people work on your project? Senior talent builds the reel; junior talent often executes the actual work.
If they can't answer all three clearly, the reel is marketing, not a reference point.
What's a realistic timeline for a video production project, and what causes delays?
A standard commercial or brand video takes up to 8 weeks from brief to final delivery, and the most common cause of delays is slow client feedback, not the production company. That timeline covers pre-production, the shoot, and post-production: editing, color, sound, and revisions.
Location permits: NYC permitting can add 1 to 2 weeks if not started early
Talent availability: Specific casting requests narrow your scheduling window fast
Scope changes mid-production: Adding a second deliverable or changing the concept after the shoot is expensive and slow
What does a bad video production engagement look like, and how do I avoid it?
A bad engagement ends with a video that looks fine but doesn't work because the brief was misaligned from the start, and revision rounds were used to fix strategic problems instead of creative ones.
The pattern is consistent: no structured pre-production process, no agreement on success metrics before the shoot, and a final cut that arrives after the budget is spent, with no room to course-correct.
To avoid it, get everything in writing before production starts: the audience, the goal, the call to action, the platform, and what approved looks like.
If a video production agency isn't asking those questions in the briefing stage, they're optimizing for a good-looking video, not an effective one.
How much of my time will a video production agency actually need once the project starts?
Expect to spend 4–6 hours in pre-production approvals, half a day to a full day on set, and 1–2 async revision rounds in post. The agencies that produce the best work ask the most questions. If you're expecting a “hand it off and receive a video” process, you'll be disappointed, and the video will reflect your unavailability.
A rough breakdown:
Pre-production: 2 to 4 hours of structured input (brief, script feedback, approvals)
Shoot day: Half day to full day, depending on complexity
Post-production: 1 or 2 revision rounds, usually async
What should the first two weeks with a new video production company actually look like?
The first two weeks should be entirely pre-production: brief alignment, scripting, storyboarding, location scouting, and casting, with no cameras until that foundation is locked. If a NY video production company moves to shoot prep before the brief is fully agreed, slow them down.
Week one should cover a detailed creative brief, audience and platform alignment, initial script or concept draft, and a production timeline with named milestones.
Week two should move into storyboarding, location scouting if needed, and casting. You should come out of week two knowing exactly what will be filmed, where, with whom, and what the final deliverables look like.
What does a fair contract with a video production company look like, and what terms should I push back on?
A fair contract specifies deliverables, caps the number of revision rounds, and clearly states who owns the raw footage after delivery. Just “a video” is not a deliverable; the agency should name format, length, aspect ratios, and platform.
One term buyers often miss is the music licensing scope. A license for one platform doesn't cover all platforms; get that clarified before signing.
Push back on:
Unlimited usage fees: Some video production agencies charge extra for paid media use; clarify upfront
IP retention clauses: Raw footage ownership matters if you want to repurpose it later
Kill fees without caps: You should be able to cancel with a fair fee, not lose the full project cost
Vague delivery timelines: "Approximately 6 weeks" is not a timeline
How do I shortlist NY video production companies without watching 40 reels?
Filter by format match, industry experience, and budget range before you open a single reel. Then read case studies, check client names, and confirm who actually produced the work. If there are no case studies, skip them regardless of how good the reel looks.
Once you've passed those gates:
Look for client names in a category similar to yours
Check whether the agency or an outside director produced the credited work
Only then watch the reel, not for the most impressive video, but for evidence they've solved a problem like yours
