Home About The Team
Fred Paddock
Fred has over 50 years experience directly behind the camera, shooting commercials, documentaries, features and music videos all over the world, and in dozens of formats. But it's his strong background in retail advertising—shooting and producing numerous retail campaigns for Wal-Mart stores since 1980—that has proven to be one of the most valuable assets to our DRTV clients.

Walter Thompson, DDB, Leo Burnett (as VP Regional Director, Asia Pacific Region based in Hong Kong) and TBWA Chiat/Day (President STL office and U.S. Board member.) His clients range from Miller Brewing, Philip Morris, Nestle, Purina, and Heinz to Hyatt Hotels and KFC, in the areas of retail and services business to pure new product and company start-ups.
Steve Zeoli

Craig Burnett

Craig has 25 years of experience on both sides of the camera. He's been in charge of post-production for literally hundreds of successful direct response campaigns as well as spokesperson or voice over announcer for scores of successful DR products.
Troy Paddock
Cameraman / Lighting Director
Like his father Fred, Troy grew up in the business, learning the basic mechanics and subtle nuances of lighting design from his grandfather, Cinematographer, Charles Paddock. Over time, Troy has carved out his own unique style of lighting design. With his efficient use of equipment and crew, Troy has increased the capabilities of our shooting team to make it unequaled in DRTV production.
