CRAFTING CORPORATE VIDEO SINCE OUR COMPETITION WERE IN DIAPERS

ESTABLISHED IN 1978

Our founder, Frank Farrell, was introduced to the world of video production while playing in the attic of his parents’ house. He found some old film equipment that his father warned not to touch under any circumstances. Young Frank interpreted this as, “Please use the equipment as much as possible!” 

Fascinated by this new-found technology, he used his creativity and talents to create short 8mm films of his family.
 

Recognized early in grade school for his inquisitive mind and talent for making things work, his music teacher asked Frank to figure out how to use the latest technology acquired by the school, a black and white reel-to-reel video system.

After accomplishing this feat in a short time, the teacher used the equipment to record students lip-syncing to the Beach Boys and Beatles, which further inspired him. He proceeded to buy his own production equipment and started shooting weddings, sporting events, and more.

Embracing the American Dream and his entrepreneurial spirit, in 1978, Frank launched Custom Video Productions. He was his junior year of high school.
 

While attending a video production course in college, he was offered a summer internship. Again, his creative talents took him on another adventure. He landed a job as the “go-to” video guy for Bell Laboratories in Holmdel, NJ. For the next 10 years, Frank produced hundreds of corporate and industrial videos for Bell Labs, AT&T, Lucent Technologies, and more.


Frank’s creativity and passion to and share his visions have kept him busy ever since.
