If you're looking for an experienced 2-person HD crew in Boston, Providence, Hartford -- or just about anywhere else in New England - you've come to the right place. My name is Doug Jensen and I have been specializing in documentary and film-style video field production for broadcast and corporate clients since 1982. My credits and clients include all the broadcast networks, major cable channels, documentary producers, and corporations needing high-end shooting. I am also the founder/owner of VortexMedia.com

Please take a look at my list of clients and credits. Most are repeat customers who call on me whenever they need something shot in New England. Obviously, I couldn't be successful at what I do for 30 years if people weren't very satisfied with my work.

My standard broadcast equipment list includes your choice of camera, a complete ENG audio system, a fully-equipped lighting and grip package, and many "extras" that other crews would charge extra for.

When you hire me, you actually get an experienced 2-person team that works together every day with our own gear. And working with the same audio technician, Sally Dewey, on every shoot has its advantages in speed, efficiency and quality. You can be sure that we didn't just get paired up a few minutes before arriving on location with unfamiliar gear we just picked up somewhere.

And unlike some crews in our area, you won't find me using interns or other unqualified personnel that you shouldn't be paying for -- and I don't want to work with. You will always get what you are paying for, and usually, even more.

I would appreciate being considered the next time you find yourself in need of a professional and experienced camera crew anywhere in New England.
