Orphonic llc
Oct 2011 - Nov 2018OwnerOrphonic Multimedia offers a wide variety of media services, including videography and photography.I might have thought i'd be a cameraman 90% of the time when I started this business, but I was wrong. The vast majority of my time is spent doing administrative work, sales, and editing. The thing I do the least is shoot with my camera. That said, I love the diversity of tasks this job encompasses.Sometimes I get the opportunity to delegate. Orphonic Multimedia has a diverse group of talented contractors and we sure wouldn't have made it this far without them. Show less
