What Our Clients Say.
Michael Raymond
"I highly recommend Derek and 'Chair on Stair Films' for your next video production. They are professionals that can create a masterpiece from your ideas and take the time to make sure every detail is just right. In their expert use of cutting-edge technology and with their experience, I'm amazed they are so affordable. I look forward to a continued collaboration as I pivot to a narrower genre in documentary film and marketing."
Cristina Ferreira
"We at Foureva Media had the pleasure of meeting Derek as he offered his services to interview Jamar. He was a pleasure to work with and also very coaching, especially during the post-production process. Derek's attention to detail is truly outstanding. I would highly recommend using his expertise when it comes to film and production. Look forward to future colabs!"
Anna & Andy Sherwin
"Derek and Brendan did an absolutely wonderful job at our wedding! They met with us to ensure they understood our needs, were very flexible when plans needed to change (even on the day of the wedding), and were fantastic to work with overall! My husband and I were thrilled with the final videos they provided, as they were beautifully shot and edited! I would highly recommend this team!"
