Kwoi Gets Clipped!

Anyone who has worked with us in the past is familiar with the long, luxurious locks of Videographer Kwoi. Imagine our surprise when he came back from shooting a hair makeover show with a Bruce Lee-esque coiff; turns out they were short a few male models so Kwoi stepped up to the plate.

Check out excerpts of the Slice show here:

Chinese Restaurants

If you happen to catch this amazing documentary show now airing on OMNI... be sure to stay till the end credits, especially Assistant Editor (it's me!).

Thank you, Amy and Thien!

We had the privilage of shooting Amy and Thien's wedding video a few months ago and they wrote us this great testimonial...



Videographer: Kwoi
Editor: Nishi

"Nishi and Kwoi at Night Day Productions are the epitome of professionalism and their final product for us - exceptional! I’m very skeptical when I meet vendors and suppliers. Videography wasn’t a top priority on our wedding list, in fact we were going to skip it all together. We’re glad we didn’t. Nishi and Kwoi sure are the dynamic duo. Any skepticism I had was put to rest as soon as my wife and I met Nishi, the Editor. Her demeanor is calm, her personality is fun and she exerts high energy levels. These assets are a direct reflection in her work. Our wedding day was captured exactly how we wanted to remember it. Kwoi did an amazing job shooting our video without the intrusiveness from my past experiences. He worked his magic with the camcorder and at times we didn’t notice his presence because he let us do our thing and captured all the beautiful moments of our very special day. All in all, my wife and I are extremely happy we chose Night Day to capture one of the most important days in our lives. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for putting the time, effort and dedication in finishing our video so beautifully and promptly. Our expectations were surely surpassed and we will not hesitate to recommend Night Day Productions to our friends and family in the future."

Thanks for the testimonial, Amy and Thien, we had a great day too.
