Cache Valley, the current place I call home in Northern Utah, has an outstanding group of video professionals. It's hard be believe there's this much talent in a small valley with a population of 138,000 residents. I'm inspired by their creativity and technical abilities. I constantly find myself impressed and motivated by their work. They each have their own style and sense of humor. Here's a non-comprehensive list of a sampling of the local talent that has influenced me in alphabetical order and a look at some of their work (There are many others I undoubtedly left off this list. Let me know who I missed):
Ron Adair
Sam and Jennika Anderson
Taylor Ballam
Larry Bucio
Logan McKay Butler
Ryan Christensen
Andrew Diamond
Chris Dunker
Chris Garff
Brent Harding
Jeremy Jensen
Mason Johnson
Christopher T. Larsen
Ty Mortensen
