Lifetime Media Reviews

We needed to create a video for the 2019 St. Louis Heart Ball that would allow us to tell a story over multi-generations even though a family of this type didn t exist. Our vision was to move from the past/present to the future and Lifetime was able to create a video that accomplished that for us. The team was responsive to our questions, explained how the story was being developed, and listened and incorporated new information that became available later in the process. The consistent communication, sticking to timelines, being conscientious the facts and medical information were correct, efficiently working with the actors to assure we got what was needed it was fascinating to experience. Lifetime Media will deliver on-time and listen to you in the process. The final product may have been created by them, but they do not lose touch with your vision. In watching other AHA videos from events around the country we have concluded that none of them have the professional look that ours does.

Lifetime helped us put together a video that captured exactly what we were looking for. They were true to our script and provided insight and expertise along the way to guide us to our final product. To say we were impressed is an understatement. We hope to work with Lifetime Media again in the future.

The COVID-19 pandemic forced us to cancel our event, the annual Fair Saint Louis Fourth of July Festival, and pivot to an online event. We interviewed several companies, but Lifetime Media far and above outweighed the competition in regards to professionalism, clarity, rapport, and portfolio. We will definitely be using Lifetime Media for all of our video needs in the future.

I needed three, one-minute professionally produced promotional videos for speaking engagements. My top concerns were production value, meeting a deadline, and costs. After speaking to the CEO Eric Habert by phone, I gained a confidence level in he and his studio s capabilities. Lifetime Media provided three professional-quality videos in a timely, cost effective manner. The final product significantly exceeded my expectations and were of professional quality for speaking engagements.

Our organization, FOCUS St. Louis, worked with Lifetime Media on a series of awards videos. There are a lot of people who can shoot video, but not everyone knows how to tell a story. Lifetime Media knows how to do both, and do it well. LTM really made my job easy; they re flexible, responsive and easy/professional to work with every step of the way. They captured what we were looking for better than we could ever have explained (or even visualized ourselves.)

I work as a freelance marketing professional, focusing on content planning and production. We know that video offers a much more powerful opportunity to reach out with impact. We appreciate Lifetime Media s professionalism, and we had the kind of chemistry that makes for a better outcome. The team made it easy and comfortable throughout the whole process. Without question, it elevated the quality of the final product.

Competitive pricing, quality product, and excellent service; Lifetime delivers on all three. When you work with professionals there is no need for you to do anything but get out of the way and let them do what you hired them to do.

Lifetime Media was a pleasure to work with. They made themselves available, often with very little notice, to talk through logistics and concerns prior to our day of videotaping. Their responsiveness was highly appreciated throughout the process and we were very pleased with the end result. - Christie Tucci, Director of Communications

As a digital marketing agency, we understand what is needed to produce great video production. We look for aesthetically-pleasing cinematography, stylistic editing, excellent communication, and a budget-friendly price. Lifetime exceeded all of those expectations from start to finish. Their positive attitude impressed us so much that we'll be looking at them for all future projects that come down the road.

I m an event coordinator for the St. Louis Business Journal. We sought out video services from Lifetime Media when our events went all virtual this year. The St. Louis Business Journal has worked with Lifetime previously, but not in this new capacity. Returning to them was an easy choice. Our top concerns for video services were: 1. Quality, and we knew Lifetime was top notch. We wanted to keep our event videos interesting and engaging for our attendees. 2. Professionalism and easy to work with, and Lifetime checked off both of these boxes! Lifetime was prompt and professional in all correspondences. Very well exceeded our expectations.

What's not to love about Lifetime Media? We've worked with them for several years now. Anytime we need green screen studio space we go to them. The staff is always friendly and helpful and they're very accommodating. If you're looking to rent studio space in the St. Louis area, you want to talk to Lifetime Media!

We wanted to create a video that could be used internally and externally to promote our sponsorship. Lifetime Media was available on short notice and came in with a very reasonable quote based on attending the event and providing the final deliverable. They paid attention to the vision that I outlined in the scope and delivered on that.

While preparing for the 2018 PGA Championship at Bellerive Country Club, we were looking for a higher quality promotion video that could be shared to promote our Grand Opening and on-site shop location. We needed a company that could turn around the video within 24 hours after shooting and also wanted a higher quality video than what we had in the past while staying within our budget. Lifetime Media nailed it! They were prompt with response, organized, listened well to our needs, and produced a quality video with a fast turnaround. Everyone was always quick to respond and edits made were done correctly each time. Lifetime exceeded our expectations and we have received fantastic reviews on the video from PR agencies, colleagues, vendors and more. Caroline Sheridan, PGA of America

I am the event planner for our annual fundraising gala at Paraquad, a nonprofit organization that seeks to empower people with disabilities to become independent through choice and opportunity. We wanted a participant video that combined three stories and showed how Paraquad empowers those in the community. Often times, when working with people with disabilities the message portrayed is of pity and charity. We wanted to choose a media company that understood our delicate message, we chose Lifetime. The communication was the easiest part of the process. You know where your videos are in the process, from conceptualizing to completion. We LOVED the videos. The participant video, especially, was the hit of the night. The flow was beautiful and the participants were able to articulate their journey here at Paraquad in an impactful way.

As communications and development manager, I needed to find a production company for our gala/awards ceremony and Lifetime came highly recommended. Our top concern was finding a high quality video production company at a reasonable price that could work creatively with us to catch and reproduce our vision for the project. The quality of work and the affordability prompted us to choose Lifetime Media. They are a very professional and easy to work with team that strives for the highest quality product. Larry Perlmutter, Communications and Development Manager, Rise Community Development

It's really important that the image we portray be professional and showcase the mission of our organization. Lifetime Media helped make a project that highlighted those exact things. (Melissa Hanstein, Director of Event & Marketing)

Our EVP was moving to another region and leaving our company, so we needed a good quality video; something that would be memorable that didn't call for lots of information prior to the shoot that needed a quick turnaround. Lifetime Media was very professional and did anything I asked while completing and finalizing the project. They are always prompt and efficient. Lifetime Media is a great company who is easy to work with and produced a very good final product that exceeded our expectations.

Over the years we have encountered some phenomenal students and while we were documenting these stories via blog posts and other written content, we decided these stories would be more impactful if we let the students tell it in their own words. We have in-house video production, but with the other projects that we have, we couldn t devote someone to just capturing student stories on film. If we were going to make an investment in this, we had to work with a company that understood our vision and would go out of their way to help us produce the best video possible; this is why we chose Lifetime Media. We wanted to cover a lot of ground in just one video, and the team at Lifetime helped us develop a clear storyboard that allowed us to cover all of the important elements in a thoughtful way. They took what was essentially just ideas in my head and turned them into more than I could have ever dreamed. My final project far exceeds my initial expectations. In a short amount of time Lifetime was able to capture the true essence of my organization and made our story one that anyone can relate to.

Lifetime Media came up with several suggestions on how best to accomplish our goals while staying within our budget. Their ability to get to know our business and shoot/collect the proper footage that would eventually be transformed into the final product was why we decided to choose them for our professional video needs. We just didn't have much time to dedicate to any of these video products, so the turn-key solution was perfect. The Lifetime Media team kept us apprised of the schedule throughout the project, collected needed items from us, and ran with it. We loved all of the videos Lifetime has produced. Each of the final videos far exceeded our expectations. They were clean, professional and something we were proud to put our company name on.

I really enjoy being able to pick up the phone and call anyone I am working with at Lifetime Media, anytime. The people at Lifetime Media are easy to work with, responsive, understanding, and best of all, fun! I love not having to worry when they are in charge of a video product. I can always trust that they are doing their best to get the job done in a timely manner and that the outcome will exceed my expectations. We love working with them!

We were looking for a video production team who understood our organization's values and who could provide a professional and engaging video in a timely manner. We have partnered with Lifetime Media on video productions in the past and felt the team understood our culture, values and mission. It was important that we work with a production team who wanted to help us achieve our objective. The overall production was not only very professional, but Lifetime Media was able to meet our tight deadlines. The final video met our expectations and we were very pleased.

I really appreciated how the Lifetime Media team brought our vision to life. We didn't have to direct, dictate or spend hours of our time editing. Throughout the project, they were more than just our video team, they were our partner. It's not often that you find instant rapport with someone, much less an entire team. Lifetime Media makes the entire process - from conception to production to editing to the final product - look easy. The final product exceeded our expectations. It was amazing to see our vision come to life!

I am local to NY and had a shoot in the MO area. I lacked all resources and crew and needed to find a place that was tapped into the production world there. Upon finding Lifetime Media, they were immediately willing and able to help source all gear and find everything I needed for the production to run smoothly. They can be a one stop shop for all production needs for any type of production. Being able to tell them what I needed and for them to come back with everything in a time efficient manner made my job a lot easier and made the experience of working with them worthwhile.

Our flagship brand partner, Bose Corporation, asked us to produce a high-energy event highlight video of the Bose portion of our annual National Sales Meeting, with only a few weeks' notice. Incentive Concepts has worked with Lifetime Media in the past and we were very pleased with their work. Even with a tight time frame, the Lifetime Media team was responsive, collaborative and flexible. It was a very efficient and productive experience. The final product is exciting, energetic and accurately depicts the high-tech and professional aspect of the Bose presentation of our sales meeting. I was very impressed. Lifetime Media is an amazing partner and I strongly recommend their team for your video production needs.

With the pandemic, we still wanted to honor the important milestone of graduation for our graduates at Goldfarb School of Nursing, meaning we had to quickly transition to a virtual graduation. Our biggest concerns regarding a solution to this newfound problem was finding a partner who listened and shared in our vision for a highly professional, cinematic video that fit within our budget and timing constraints.

Lifetime Media listened, was excited about enhancing our ideas, offered suggestions, and most importantly was professional, practical, yet creative.

Our primary concern was keeping everyone safe from potential exposure to COVID. Kyle and the rest of the Lifetime Media team adhered to all safety requirements and managed the flow of graduates during filming to help ensure their safety as well. I had high expectations for the deliverable and Lifetime media did not disappoint and I would recommend them without hesitation.

Lifetime Media exceeded our expectations.

From start to finish Lifetime Media was great to work with. They provided great feedback on the presentation of the final film and produced a great product! We were happy to see the 'look and feel' of the final product reflected our brand very well.

We needed a film crew that would be responsive to the special needs of our population, and work with us and the kids to make everyone comfortable. Lifetime Media is always willing to go the extra mile, use their imaginations, and make great suggestions for content. I have worked with them for years and recommend them often. I wouldn t use anyone else and can trust that they will do a great job for you.

The final product exceeded our every expectation. I would highly recommend their services and plan to use them for our next 6 projects.

We were looking to professionally edit some videos that we currently have so that we could place them in our online learning platform. We wanted a company who was experienced in video editing and who offered advice and support for future projects. Picking Lifetime Media was an easy choice. Their expertise in editing and their ability to also help us create promotional videos and provide quantity video recordings of our conferences and events going forward prompted us to them for our video production needs. They have provided outstanding customer service, professional work, and support that you just won't find with other companies. We love the final product! We never had concerns, we knew we were in good hands!

As a young producer, it's hard to find quality production companies who can bring my vision to life. After finding Lifetime Media online, all my concerns were addressed. The sound stage was like a dream, I loved it. The crew was experienced, smart, and professional. They were a joy to work with and created a relaxed environment. They created a product that I'm proud of.

Great team. Produced a fantastic product at a fair price. Highly recommend!

The final product exceeded our expectations. Not only were our employees happy with the video, but we have had excellent feedback from our social media audiences. If you re looking for a professional, top-notch video product, you won t be disappointed with Lifetime Media s team and work product.

We were impressed with their experience and knowledge, but one of the biggest selling points was the outstanding quality of the work they showed us for their other clients.

Our biggest concern in creating a company video for the first time was that it would convey the right message while being professional and high-quality. Their producer did an outstanding job putting our folks at ease during the interview process. I believe it was his ability to pull the best out of our people in the otherwise unfamiliar environment of being filmed talking on camera that gave us what we needed to convey the message we wanted in our video.

Thank you, Lifetime Media! We're looking forward to working on our next video project together.

Amidst the pandemic, with many of our clients at Cosmopolitan Events and Experiences moving into a virtual or hybrid space, we knew Lifetime Media would bring the same level of professionalism and attention to detail to our events. I was able to walk through the entire planning process in confidence, knowing we were being led by a dedicated and knowledgeable team. Amazing planning process leading up to the event and outstanding production team! Lifetime is simply the BEST!

My son was born with Congenital Heart Disease (CHD), and I was asked by the American Heart Association to share his story. What's not always easy is communicating our story in a meaningful way, inspiring others to action. Lifetime Media removed that challenge. They talked me through the whole process and made the interview feel very conversational. They asked the right questions to build a beautiful storyline, without it feeling scripted or rehearsed. The final product far exceeded my expectations. Lifetime Media took my thoughts and ramblings, expertly strung them together with beautiful images of our life and seemingly simple moments, to create a powerful, heartfelt message that perfectly captures and communicates our passion. The video is perfect and inspiring. I wouldn't change a thing.

We were impressed with Lifetime Media s immediate grasp of what we wanted to do, the various ideas offered, and the willingness to work with us to create a final project that met our needs. Though we had an idea of what we wanted, we did not have the knowledge of video to have a specific vision. Lifetime Media worked with us to help create a final product that was even more than we first imagined. We would tell anyone who wants a quality and effective video but who does not have the knowledge of how to do it that you can totally trust Lifetime Media to guide you through the process to a product that is more than you can imagine.

We were hosting an event where we wanted to showcase lessons in the classroom for grades K-2 for our Superkids reading program. The school we were filming at was in a rural community so we needed to find a production company that was willing to travel to the site at a cost that made sense for the project, with a very quick turnaround time. Lifetime Media had a very reasonable quote for us, were willing to travel, and really understood the importance of our timeline. They answered any questions or concerns we had prior to filming so we felt confident about the project. They created a high quality finished product for us that matched our brand with a style that was consistent with previous videos we ve had produced. The videos look great! We think they will serve multiple purposes beyond the initial event they were intended for. Great company. Great communication. Quality work! I wouldn t change a thing.

I have been a full time professional speaker for 25 years and needed new footage for an upcoming book tour. I wanted a two camera shoot and professional quality. That is why I chose Lifetime Media. They were not only on time and prepared, but they were charming and managed to coordinate all the technical issues with the group running the conference with no expense to me! The video quality is excellent. I asked them to make me look more like Angelina Jolie than Madeline Albright, and they failed there, but there is only so much even a crack video team can do!

As the Director of Marketing at Rosalind Franklin University, my team needed to create 11 videos for our commencement celebration as we weren't able to have our regular in-person event due to COVID-19. We were concerned with the short timeframe and huge amount of work ahead of us. Lifetime Media knocked it out of the park. They provided unique ideas, great editing and handed us the final videos ahead of schedule. Everyone was very impressed with the results, and we are so pleased with the final videos they produced.
