From: The Save Our History Team of the History Channel Andrew, on behalf of The History Channel, congratulations on being selected as one of the top 25 students who submitted projects in the Save Our History National Honors! This year's applicants were all very strong and you should feel especially proud that your project was one of the select few that was chosen as a winner. As such, you will receive a $1,000 prize. We hope that this will encourage you to continue your work researching, documenting and preserving your local history. Because of students like you, historic sites are being restored, stories of your local town's population are being told and communities around the country are realizing that their history is an important and valuable resource which must be preserved. We want to reward and recognize you for your efforts. Save Our History itself was created with the goal of encouraging students to get involved in historic preservation projects just like yours. You truly are a role model for others and we hope you will share your experience in preserving your local history with others in your communities and encourage your classmates and friends to get involved as well! Best regards, The Save Our History Team ... From: Dan Kolbet -Marketing Publications Manager: People to People Student Ambassadors Programs ... "Congratulations on winning the 2003 People to People Student Ambassadors Special Correspondent contest. Your exceptional film far out placed any other entry we received this year. This national contest was open to more than 23,000 Student Ambassadors who traveled all over the world with People to People in 2003. You should take pride in your win and the quality of your entry. Our contest judges were impressed by your use of music and destination labels/titles. Editing the film to encompass historic sights and the emotions of your fellow Student Ambassadors, all while capturing the rapid pace of the Celtic Discovery program was quite a feat. You have shown talent beyond your years...." Sincerely, . ...... ...... .... .. .... ... . . ... ...... .. .. .... . ............. ... ....... ..... ........... ........... ........... ......

Andrew recently took on a huge DVD project for my family to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary event. I entrusted Andrew with this important task after having viewed another exceptional anniversary DVD he had created. From the inception of our own particular project he provided phenomenal professional and creative service. This included working with a pressing deadline, coordinating with numerous individuals involved in the project, and modifying visual and musical aspects of the DVD at the last minute. Andrew brought to task a natural sense of how to create a beautifully harmonious "story" using over 750 photographic images coordinated impeccably with musical selections. Andrew's attention to detail also elevated this very personal project to a highly professional level. Every single image in the completed project was scrutinized and ultimately a pleasure to behold! Andrew's solid creative applications, his knowledge of the "tools of his trade" and his unerringly courteous accessibility to his clients make him the kind of specialist anyone would want to manage important videographic projects...And aside from all of that he is absolutely a JOY to work with. I can not recommend him highly enough! |

From: Eric Pederson <epederson@spartan.org> Andrew went well above and beyond in his ability to edit, film, and design a European trip film that featured all the highlights for student ambassadors around the country to view and learn about the People to People Ambassador program. His quality product makes my memories of the trip of more value and interest. Napier Digital is a high quality service with the customers best interest in mind. Andrew put together an outstanding culmination of our three week trip in Europe. As his leader on this trip, I was impressed with his filming skills and most importantly, his editing with careful precision and creative graphic and set up design. After creating the hour long film,he submitted a shorter version (10 min) to a National Film Contest. His film took first place! His product is very user friendly and I highly recommend his service to anyone! -Eric Pederson Email me for questions at: epederson@spartan.org ... From: Randy Fabian, Athletic Director of Mauston High School I am writing this letter of recommendation for Mr. Andrew Napier, of Napier Films. I have had Andrew complete two video projects for me.

His work was done in a very timely manner and the quality was amazing. He did a very professional job and he has impressed everyone who has seen these videos. I would not hesitate to hire Andrew for future projects. If you have any question or need more information please do not hesitate to call. ... .. . ... . . . .. ... ... ... .. .. .. . .. . .. ... . . ... .. ... .. ....... ... ... ... ... . . . .. . .. ... . . .

From: Roger David, MD Andrew Napier put together a video for my 60th birthday, which included photographs of my life from infancy to the present. He had never met me, but knew me through his uncle, who is a good friend of mine. He took this assortment of photographs and very creatively put together a sequence, coupled beautifully with great music, that chronicled my life. He did a masterful job, and it was received enthusiastically by the people at the party. Now my family and I have a DVD which we can keep. Andrew is obviously an extremely creative graphics designer, and uses computer graphics well. I plan to hire him in the future for similar projects, and could not recommend him more highly. Sincerely, Roger C. David, M.D. Email me for questions at: rpdavid@att.net ... From: Ann Hamer <hamerae@unit5.org> "The Family Reunion video slide show produced by Napier Digital was enjoyed by all at our family reunion in July. We look forward to the next edition at our next family reunion. Because our family is large and spread out all over the country, this video will be a great and enjoyable way to keep in touch with family members." Email me for questions at: hamerae@unit5.org ... From: Tom <tom@leaveithere.com> Recently Andrew Napier prepared a DVD of my childhood through old pictures and an old home movie. Sections of the old home movie were inserted into a popular science fiction TV show aired in the sixties. This video was shown at a surprise 50th birthday party. The movie was a big hit at the party. Friends were rolling off their chairs with laughter. I strongly recommend using Andrew's creative talents to roast your best friends at their memorable events. All you need to give Andrew are old childhood pictures, old home movies, and music your friend or enemy likes. Email me for questions at: tom@leaveithere.com ... From: Angie Pulvermacher Andrew has worked with our church youth and myself to develop DVD's and VHS tapes. After contacting Andrew on a very short notice of the work we wanted done, he gave us several ideas and suggestions as to how we might put this documentary together. He went out of his way, working late hours to complete the tapes on our time schedule. He was very encouraging and patient when working with the youth. He took time to explain how to do what needed to be done, and then was patient when things didn't go quite right and had to be done over. He telephoned us several times to be sure we were staying on schedule and that we understood what the next step was. He listened to our questions and always answered us in a professional way. He questioned us to make sure we understood what he was telling us. He spent a great deal of time editing the video. He wanted everything to be the best he could offer. He is very professional and goes the extra distance to please his customers. I highly recommend Andrew for whatever he proposes. he is extremely dedicated, very-grounded, young man who will do his very best in whatever he chooses. -Angie ...
