Chris was a videographer supporting WhatsApp user experience research team, which I was a part of. During his tenure in WhatsApp, he became an important part of the UXR team. His videos were flawlessly crafted and helped us convey our insights in a clear and engaging way. As a result, the work of the research team was more impactful, both among our direct stakeholders and company leads. Chris was especially good at making the complex ideas simple, so that the broader audience could understand them better. He is open to feedback and easy to collaborate with, even on the most complex projects. He is innovative and willing to suggest trying out new formats and techniques in order to make videos more impactful and engaging.

Chris and I worked together on various videography projects at WhatsApp, and on each occasion it was a genuine pleasure to partner and collaborate with him. Chris is naturally inquisitive and cares deeply about his work - which ultimately always results in high quality deliverables. During his time at WhatsApp he up-levelled the entire team's work and helped set the bar high in terms of what our stakeholders now expect from us.

Chris produced a fantastic video summarising one of our research projects at WhatsApp. The video highlighted the core insights from the study, and really helped land the insights for my cross-functional partners .

I have worked with Chris on a variety of projects during my time at Otro and can say he's an enthusiastic and hard working editor with a great editorial brain, as well as aesthetics. We often worked together under tight deadlines and Chris always delivered with a smile on his face. Would absolutely recommend.

We have worked with Chris on a number of branded short-form projects and it is always a pleasure to work with him. He is an excellent, experienced editor and his language skills were particularly valuable on a project which contained Spanish interviews. He has a very friendly, collaborative approach.

I had the privilege of working with Chris on a number of videography projects at WhatsApp. Working with Chris was a real pleasure. He worked collaboratively and produced high quality videos to highlight research insights to be shared with a range of teams. These well-crafted videos really brought the studies to life and I learned so much about video-editing and storytelling from working with Chris!

Chris worked at WhatsApp for 2 years as our in-house Videographer. He's a master of his craft, is diligent, hardworking and a natural at relationship building. Not only did he produce many brilliant videos during his time, he also upskilled many in the team on editing software, leaving us better equipped to produce our own videos in his absence.

I had the pleasure of working with Chris for roughly 6 months and throughout that time he displayed an assured and methodical approach to his work; listened attentively to feedback; coped extremely well when working on tight deadlines and took on several workflows at once from a variety of departmental leads - myself included. Chris is foremost a creative thinker with an acute eye for detail, and second a true master of his practice. He created a mixture of teasers, trailers, content for social and clipped archive - each of which was completed on time, with minimum fuss and always polished to a high-specification. A genuinely kind person to boot - any company lucky to procure Chris's services will discover a team player who, refreshingly, will get the job done with aplomb.

I worked alongside Chris for just over a year at Hub. As Producer, Chris and I spent a significant amount of time working together. Working with Chris was always a pleasure, and I came to know him as a truly dependable and hard-working member of the team. Beyond that, he is an impressively creative editor who is always able to understand the client brief and deliver the projects to a high standard. Working in the client’s office for the majority of the time, Chris was able to effectively manage his own time and supplier/client relationships, giving him a wide skill set that will be valuable to your company. He is a true team player and great fun to have in the office. I can confidently recommend Chris to join any team. As a dedicated and knowledgeable employee and an all-around great person, I know that he will be a beneficial addition to an organisation.
