What Our Clients Say
J.H. Blazar
I’ve worked with Maverick on several projects (first for a school and then for a large non-profit) and they do excellent work in any setting. Truly a full-service team that makes beautiful videos!
Sarah Rachul
I hired Maverick for a large scale brand event in Boston harbor. They had to juggle freezing weather, multiple high-level executives, and a drone from a boat in Boston harbor and they absolutely knocked it out of the park. Their communication through the process and speed of deliverables just blew me away. I would HIGHLY recommend you hire them and look forward to working with them again in the future.
Clark M
We worked with the Maverick team to create a series of product demo videos, and they exceeded all of our expectations. Their expertise in the field shines through in every frame, making complicated concepts not only understandable but engaging.
Jeff and the team at Maverick blended creativity and technical skill to produce an amazing set of videos that will showcase our insurance products for years to come. We are already looking forward to working with them again in the future!
McClure Team
We had the pleasure of working with Maverick Productions in Boston on a recent video project that we needed for our website and an upcoming event. They exceeded all expectations. Jeff and his team's creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail were exceptional. From concept development to final editing, they communicated very well throughout the process and delivered a beautiful finished product that perfectly captured our vision. Highly recommended for anyone seeking high-quality video services in the Boston area.
Joseph Shafer
I highly recommend Maverick Boston Video Production! They came to our rescue with a last-minute video broadcast for our event, and their exceptional work exceeded our expectations. The video had outstanding quality and was complemented by impeccable audio. Despite numerous last-minute changes, their professionalism and adaptability shone through, resulting in a successful event. Their passion, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction make them the go-to choice for high-quality video production. Yes, I did use chatGPT to write this. BUT, it is all true. Definitely a production crew I can trust.
Nora Foster
I hired Maverick Productions to produce a new About Us video and a series of capability videos for my manufacturing client. Jeff and the team did a fantastic job handling multiple film locations and our technical shot list, putting it all together quickly, and taking what I envisioned to create a final product that truly showcased the company. They were also very responsive and quick to handle our edits. Overall, great experience working with this company, and I hope to do more projects with them in the future.
Alexis Baum
5+ stars for Maverick Productions! I’ve been working with Jeff and his team for six years on various projects for Regis College, and I continue to be impressed by their work each and every time. I think one of the reasons they are so successful is because they don’t just show up and shoot—they take the time to truly get to know an organization or company before jumping into a project, and that really makes a difference because I have always felt like Maverick is part of my team when we work together. In addition to their technical expertise, they have a keen ability to create a compelling and impactful story. One of our projects is the production of our video features for our Let It Shine Gala, and seeing our guests brought to tears (happy tears!) at the gala while watching the videos shows how truly talented everyone is—from the on-site production team to the editing team—at creating videos that inspire people. I always look forward to working with Maverick not only because of the fantastic quality of their videos, but because they are great people as well.
Suzanne Jones
We could not be happier with the quality of work from Jeff and crew. This award winning team was able to weave a story about our child's rare disease journey into a short film that combined footage and wording in a way that was both touching and impactful. While Jeff aptly guided our strategy, he was also open to our input on elements of our family's story. We appreciated the collaboration. We also respected that our budget was top of mind. We worked together to manage production time and associated costs to ensure we were satisfied with both our end product and financial output. Working with Maverick was a top notch experience -- we highly recommend them.

Their capability is a given - craft and care goes into every production. More importantly, Jeff's team are great listeners, and take care to understand their customers' needs in order to arrive at the right solution. Always great collaborators, they also can take the lead in steering your vision if that's what's needed. Add to this Jeff's easy-going and friendly manner and it's a no-brainer to continue working with Maverick.
