nice things people say
“I have had the pleasure of working with Mark Schwartz as a video producer on a number of occasions. He has always been extremely responsive to our budget and schedule. Mark comes with my highest recommendation.”
“The piece Mark produced for us featuring Andrew Garfield is brilliant and done on a shoestring budget. Garnering support as a non-profit depends upon how well you can tell your story. In that area we have a secret weapon: Mark Schwartz and his fun and professional team at Alchemy.”
“We have worked with the team at Alchemy on several projects, over a period of many years. We have had nothing but good experiences. The quality of their work is top notch, and perhaps most important of all, our talent really enjoyed working with Mark.”
