Storytelling is my passion
CORPORATE - NETWORK -DOCUMENTARY - SPORTS - MEDICAL- COMMERCIALS
Welcome to Gazio Productions,
I've been a Director of Photography in television production since 1995. I am passionate about my craft. I have an eye for telling a powerful story with compelling imagery. I've won more than 20 Emmys and regional awards. I'm also extremely flexible, easy going and love a good challenge. The combination of my news and documentary experience has taught me to be fast and accurate, while treating projects with unsurpassed attention to details. I've traveled all 7 continents capturing impressive footage for corporate and broadcast clients and creating award-winning products. Let me help you achieve your creative vision that is within your budget. I would love the opportunity to work on your next project.
From concept to final product, we take a collaborative approach to video production. We work closely with our clients to understand their goals and vision, and we're committed to delivering exceptional results that exceed their expectations.
About Gazio Productions
Our Story
I was one of those kids always captivated by visual storytelling. Taking pictures and trying to capture "moments" on tape were my favorite pastimes. Television fascinated me, and I knew I wanted to be involved from an early age. I graduated from college with a Broadcasting/Journalism degree and dove into the "real" world.
I started my professional career in 1995 shooting and editing news for various television stations. In 2003, I had a chance to work for a local production company in Tampa where I was fortunate to travel the World shooting for "Jack Hanna's Animal Adventures" as well as doing a lot of commercial, documentary and corporate work. In 2006, I decided to open my own full-service production company, Gazio Productions, and expand my services and really take care of my client's needs. From sports, to corporate, to documentary, to network, to medical, and everything in between, please feel free to call. I'd love to be a part of your next project. State of the art HD and 4K cameras and editing.
