The team from GAVL was wonderful. They gathered branding information and location specifics from us prior to flying in to the location. Then, they came in and gathered professional B-roll fottage ahead of the two days of main filming. They used drones and went out to locations that would add value to the content. They spent two days filming the principals of the firm, as well as client testimonials. The team also accompanied the partners to their adjunct faculty gig and filmed that as well. After gathering all the shots they needed, they meticulously edited the raw footage and produced nine amazing, professional videos that perfectly reflect our brand.
