CBCinematics was easy to work with, and very creative! Sometimes it can be hard to explain what you’d like to see, or even come up with a vision for a video. Working with them made it easy and he made suggestions along the way, and improved upon the vision I had for my video.

CBCinematics... provided a wealth of knowledge to Mr. Willey’s Digital Art and Design students. CBCinematics provides video services and is a Greenville company. Students learned about storytelling through cinema, engaging in all types of art, what goes into planning, and his workflow. The entire group was able to set the studio stage and strut through the scene. Thank you so much to Chris Butler for the sessions.

CBCinematics is the real deal! Chris, the owner, is so passionate AND skilled at his craft. We are working on a project together and I've really loved the content he has put out so far. Chris is professional, quick on turnarounds, and communicates really well. What more could you ask for in a videographer (any business really)? Definitely recommend these guys!
