It was a pleasure working with Travis and his team! This was a long project that required coordinating multiple filming locations and staff members all during the pandemic. He was patient with our many changes, delays and expectations and we are pleased with the end result! I would recommend Shields Films to anyone looking for a partner to develop engaging, quality content. Thanks Travis!

I run creative for HoneHealth.com and we had a west coast filming need in short order. Travis was able to accommodate us within 48 hours and had the shoot wrapped and delivered. Quality was great and he was a pleasure to work with on such short notice.

Travis has been wonderful to work with. He handles every element of the production process and has been a great partner for Oregon Eye Specialists. He created patient videos about the surgical process of cataract surgery that we offer to our patients prior to surgery. He has been flexible, creative and very helpful throughout the entire creative journey. I will work with him again in the future and highly recommend his company.

Travis Shields is one of the top videographers and live-streaming professionals in the field. He has run 3 major live-streaming events for us over the past five years in multiple cities (San Francisco, Dallas, and Portland). All three went off without a hitch. Travis is a genius, brings an impeccable eye and ear, is totally dependable, and also is just lovely to be around even under high stress circumstances. I give him my absolute highest recommendation.
