“I’ve known and worked with Randy Thieben for over 10 years and in that time, he’s always been completely dependable, results oriented and most importantly always eager to get the job done! When I started in news in 1997 he took the time to train me to shoot broadcast quality video making my transition into news as smooth as possible. Since then, I’ve worked with Randy on a number of projects for Central Coast Uplink and he’s always completely professional, catering to client needs and going above and beyond the call of duty. In short, no obstacle keeps Randy from getting a project done on time… not easily said in the fast-paced, deadline driven world of news and video production.”
Sean Bolen, Reporter, Hearst-Argyle Television, Inc.
