Sunday, 27 January 2008

Media-Geek.com is owned and operated by Larry A. Compton, sole proprietor of Larry A. Compton's Studios (DBA filed in Broome County, NY - 2002).

Larry is an independant technology consultant with nearly 20 years of professional experience in various technology related fields, to include telecommunications, networking, Web design, audio/video production, and Forensic Video Analysis.

Developing multimedia products that truly captivate the audience can only be accomplished through creative passion. Sure you need the tools, knowledge, and dedication to see the project through from vision to completion; but it is the passion behind the effort that engrosses the audience. High quality, low cost, professional results. This is what I do, quite simply because I love to do it.
