Service-oriented partnership
Jonas Bromberg, Psy.D.
Principal Consultant @ Crossroads Health
“I have worked with Michael and his team on several occasions, and from start to finish, the experience was always fantastic.”
Great creative thinking, detailed preparation, and highly professional execution made this part of my projects run like clockwork. Michael and his team define “service-oriented,” and the results have always been outstanding.
— Jonas Bromberg, Psy.D.
Camera-confidence coaching
Sonya Ponder
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Talent Acquisition Manager at Princeton University
“I had the pleasure of being in several projects produced by Michael in my last role.”
Being in front of the camera can be very intimidating, especially with little experience, but Michael always made the process easy to understand and fun. He is professional, approachable, and down to earth in a way that makes anyone working with him want to be their best. I would highly recommend Michael in any client-facing role.
— Sonya Ponder
Steady leadership under pressure
Dave Greeley
Partner @ McKenna and Partners
“The last time I worked with Mike, we were under every kind of pressure possible: political, financial, creative, temporal, and trying to shoot in English and French simultaneously.”
We wrapped half an hour early. I recommend Mike without reservation. As a director, cinematographer, collaborator, and leader, he’s nigh on peerless. For people in my business, choosing a director is a huge risk. As far as I’m concerned, it’s Mike Kuell or we find another medium.
— Dave Greeley
Mentorship and storytelling rigor
Cathleen Carr
Creative Social Impact Leader
“Michael is an exceptional Executive Producer, Director and Filmmaker.”
His level of professionalism and focus is remarkable. As a mentor, Michael has helped me redirect my skill set toward all aspects of video production. During a rigorous shoot spanning five cities, I watched him conduct over 40 interviews with top psychologists while staying calm, clear, and collaborative.
— Cathleen Carr
Versatility across formats
Jay Rose
Sound Designer, Digital Playroom
“Mike is one of the most versatile, professional, and driven filmmakers I’ve ever worked with.”
I’ve seen him do great work with scripted and improv comedy, drama, commercials, and straight-ahead corporate storytelling. He gets the best from actors and craftspeople, and consistently delivers more than expected for the budget.
— Jay Rose
