"I recently hired Joe and Clear Eyed Media to put together a settlement demand video in a complicated negligent security case. Joe was easy to work with and very insightful and thoughtful in helping us craft the video. Joe was also very thorough. The final product was nearly 20 minutes of seamlessly woven together body cam footage, video of client deposition testimony, compelling still photos, document excerpts and additional footage Joe’s team shot – all with appropriate and compelling narration and visual touches. Ultimately, I received very positive feedback from a well-regarded mediator and the video helped us in positioning the case for a positive resolution. Finally, the pricing was reasonable and the process was user-friendly start to finish. I would highly recommend Joe and Clear Eyed Media."

"During my time in the Northwest, Joe collaborated on several stories for me. His adeptness in posing challenging questions consistently elicited profound emotions from the individuals he interviewed. ...
I must highlight the pivotal role Joe played in reporting on my campaign to secure the release of my brother from a prison in Mexico. His reportage garnered the attention of our US senators, ultimately leading to my brother's release and our eventual reunion. Joe's contribution was instrumental in achieving this significant outcome."
