John was communicative throughout the planning process and worked hard though what became a pretty hectic day!

Big Dog Video productions was outstanding, they showed up on time and I used them four days in a row, very professional and knew all the ins and outs of the DC area. If you need a great videographer for a reasonable price, big dog is the way to go!

John's work experience really comes through during his projects. He was able to provide me with good instruction and made many suggestions. Two thumbs up!

John did a great job on our video shoot. He showed up on time, had good equipment, made a good recording despite background noise, and delivered the finished footage as promised.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely amazing experience! I recently hired this videographer for an event in Virginia, and he was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was punctual, professional, and came fully prepared with all the right equipment. The communication was smooth, the energy was great, and he made the entire process easy from start to finish. He delivered all of my content on time, with excellent quality, and truly captured the moments I needed. He’s a genuine guy with strong work ethic, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for high-level videography. Five-star business all the way.

FIVE STARS! I hired John McClung for a professional videography project and couldn’t be happier with the results. From start to finish, John was responsive, detail-oriented, and incredibly easy to work with. He showed up on time, captured everything I needed (and more), and e-delivered the video before I got home. His creative eye and ability to adapt on the fly made the process seamless and stress-free. But honestly... I'd hire John again for his heart. What a wonderful, compassionate human. We need more John's in this world.

Big Dog Video Productions Celebration Of Life, specifically John, was a true pro. For my Dad‘s celebration of life, he was unobtrusive, but at the same time, slick and capturing the moments we wanted captured. He was punctual, and prior to the event, he was responsive to all of my questions and needs. His product was excellent, and I would highly recommend him!

UPDATE: This update is not to change anything I originally posted but to dispel the artificial things in John's response: 1. I attached a photo of John's text to me not even an hour after I wrote the review. I wish he'd been this communicative the night of my event. More photos attached are: 1 of him telling me to decide what to pay and #2 is my zelle that failed. #3 is my cashapp receipt. 2. I'm offended and not sure why he's saying that he shot all of my event when the time I booked was for clear, 7pm to 12am. Another photo shows the text where I state the video quality is amazing. I don't appreciate my words being mixed around. 3. Attached is a screenshot of the project details that mention the two DJs that I hired to dj my event. 1 of them is my brother. Their Instagrams are @djquickspindmv and @iiino.sound they also had on company shirts (photo attached) and dj'd for most of the night so I don't understand where the lies are coming from. Also attached is a photo of my dancers with company shirts on. Still, instead of genuinely apologizing, lies are told and now antagonizing. Wow, just wow. ---- REVIEW Two hours into my event, I realized I didn't see John so I shot him a text and he responded saying he left because his girlfriend's car broke down. I know videographers can sometimes have a bad reputation but I've never imagined one leaving an event unannounced and being nonchalant about it. It still doesn't make sense to me. I believed we had good rapport and even went over what to capture again before the event began. This was absolutely devastating as this was my brand's first local event so the video content was crucial for future operations. From 9:30 to 12 (70% of my event) no video was captured. I had 2 dj's playing, a combination of dancers and influencers that came in. What also surprised me was the lack of care and respect to communicate with me and to ensure that the 5 hours they were hired for would be still be covered. On top of managing everything during the event, why did I have to contact him to figure out what was going on? His response was that he didn't see me. Myself and other team members had matching shirts. After going back and forth with him and the videographer, the videographer asked me if I had any cellphone footage that she could add to the video. Then they finally said I didn't have to pay, which doesn't solve anything. The cherry on top was them asking me not to leave a review. I'll never have what I need and I now have to make do with the bit he did capture. This experience still saddens me and is extremely unfortunate but I share in hopes to prevent it from happening to someone else.

I was blown away by big dog video productions. The quality of his work, and his attention to detail caught my eye. He looked out for me and provided the best quality video I could imagine. I would recommend anyone who is looking for quality video, professionalism, and just good Video Production, you would want to contact big dog video productions.

John is awesome to work with - and easy to get things the way you want them.

John and his other camera guy were great! They know their stuff! It was my first professional shoot, so I was nervous, but John gave me a lot of guidance. On the editing side, the work is pretty good! My only critique is that they seem stretched a little thin here.

Gus G.Mar 2021

John at BigDogProductions not only brings years of experience but reliability. I had rented a music studio to shoot interviews, and live album performance, and he showed up, setup, and did a fantastic job! Looking forward to doing more work with John at BigDogProductions. Thank you so much John!

John's a great guy to work with. Knowledgeable, up front and professional and has a pretty good sense of humor . Lol Megan did a wonderful job editing and I will be using them again in the future.

I put together a huge 24 hour project. I did not know how to make sure this gets out to a national level broadcast. I called him with a very short window. I should of contacted him months prior, but he was able to fit me in his schedule, and he gave me all the specifics, I would need to make this happen. He dedicated his services and his camera for 24 hours. It went viral! I was able to honor so many because of his professionalism, and attention to detail. He was very reasonably priced as well. I could tell he had many years of experience because he was on point and broke it down to my level of understanding. I would recommend him to anyone that needs the experience. All I needed was the vision. The video was perfect, thank gosh I did not use my cell phone for this project. Thank you so much for what you have done for us and for our Nation. - Tim Chambers, The Saluting Marine
