I own Forbidden Island, a mid-century style Tiki Lounge in Alameda, Ca, I first met Chris when he was shooting a short film, that was using my bar as a location. He showed me some raw clips as the shoot progressed and I was truly enamored at the way he captured the space. I immediately hired him to shoot some of the live music that I was featuring. The videos are fantastic! There’s one band in particular, Thee Swank Bastards, that he captured in a dark cinéma vérité style. Still some of my favorite videos to post and share. He has also put together a couple of «photo book» videos which turned out terrific! One of which chronicles my bar’s transformation from dive bar to full on Tiki. Chris is amazing to work with. Listens yet provides some fantastic input! No count about it. Hi Def is my go-to video production company!

Working with Christopher was a great, professional experience. We had some post-production work that needed to be done, and he was cooperative, easy to work with, on time and on budget.
He worked with us and became a real asset — There was a time we had last minute requests, and he did his best to accommodate us. Due to the nature of the work, we hit some technical snags and Christopher went above and beyond to resolve them.
Do yourself a favor and consider hiring Christopher.

I met Chris via a mutual friend that hired him to create some promotional videos for a popular establishment, Forbidden Island Tiki Lounge in Alameda, CA. I was so impressed with Chris’s personable professionalism that I asked him to direct, produce, and edit a comprehensive book trailer for my body of work up to that date (2011), called «The Thrillville Pulp Fiction Collection.» We shot some «film noir» style footage at Forbidden Island from a skeletal, improvised script Chris and I worked out together, then he added V.O. of me reading excerpts from the featured novels, with appropriately embedded imagery. The final product was edited via a «grindhouse» filter that gave it a very retro look and feel. Throughout the project Chris was eagerly and enthusiastically «hands on,» always energetically engaged, open to all ideas while very generous with his own, and extremely supportive. Our visions melded smoothly because of his willingness to share the creative process as collaborators, and I fully trusted his own extensive experience in the field. It’s paid off with thousands of views and multiple visits to my site. I strongly recommend Chris for any type of video venture.

I worked with Christopher on several projects and I found him professional and, most importantly, patient with me! He always returned my correspondences in a timely manner and was even willing to communicate when several emergencies arose! I am not at all a technical person but Christopher was able to speak to me so that I understood what I was dealing with. He was even able to give me suggestions which I didn’t even know existed. He made my projects much easier because he was earnest, always ready to help me to the best of his abilities and, he delivered the projects on time and in most cases, under a great deal of duress. I am truly grateful I got to work with Christopher Sorrenti of High Def Productions. He is a true gentleman that knows his trade. Thank you Chris!
