Escondido's Hidden Gem

Escondido’s little hidden gem. Wow- this company went above and Beyond. Shayn and his team are professional and really took their time to listen to our ideas. They took ours and added them to theirs. Hands down they achieved more than we could’ve ever expected. A+++++ in our book. I couldn’t believe how well thought out everything was during the filming. This company made it flawless. Thank you Drone Cameraman for giving us more than we ever expected. We will be back.

Incredible Work

I just wanted to take a minute and express my thanks for the incredible work I have received from the Cypher Studios team. Seriously, these guys are second to none. I’ve collaborated with them on several occasions, and have yet to come across anyone more professional, easy to understand, and well experienced as them.

Production Value Far Exceeds Costs

I use Cypher Studios for all my short films. The production value it adds to my films far exceeds the cost. It was a pleasure to work with people that understand film making and also take direction well. A true creative collaboration. I almost am afraid to give a recommendation and give away my competitive edge, but these guys impressed me so much that they earned it.

I also want to thank Cypher Studios for the EXCELLENT support with setting things up and answering questions that I had. If you are looking for the best team of professionals WITH support, this is it!

Super Friendly and Professional

I have worked with this company on several occasions for short films/video for my gothic artwork. They are super friendly, and professional and being that my style of art is sort of unusual and niche, made me feel comfortable at all times, and even offered ideas to enrich the projects. I would recommend to anyone

Can't Say Enough Good Things

Searched online for a San Diego videographer and happened across Cypher Studios. I filled out their contact form on their website and within 20 minutes I had a call back. I spoke with Shayn and I could immediately tell him and his team were the crew for the job. Our business was in need of a professional video to use online as a commercial and these guys are as good as it gets. They arrived promptly on our scheduled shoot date, had their equipment prepared and ready to go, understood our goals, received our recommendations, and offered expert advice to make the final cut turn our masterful. Can’t say enough good things about working with them but I wanted to be sure I left them a detailed review. Thanks again fellas!
