TESTIMONIALS
Don't just take it from us. Here's what some of our past clients and collaborators are saying about HatChap Productions Inc.
Jenice Smith,
Steep Peak Kombucha
This was my first time working with the team from HatChap Productions - it was a great experience! I prefer to be behind the scenes and the crew was incredibly encouraging for me to step out of my comfort zone and embrace the whole experience. They have an infectious energy and their commitment to the vision makes it easy to jump on. The final result was captivating & professional. They went above and beyond and it shows!

Thomas and Stephanie Fox
We hired Nick (HatChap) to make a video of our wedding. I expected it to be good but I didn't expect it to be so amazing. Nick put such an incredible amount of thought and passion into it - we are so privileged and grateful to have such a beautiful video capturing our wedding. It's perfect. He took the time to capture the specific people who are most important to us like our parents and families and close friends. Nick didn't miss anything - he worked so hard on the wedding day, he didn't stop working and not a single moment escaped him. We are very impressed and very touched. We will cherish this video for the rest of our lives.

Wood's Homes
"We hired HatChap to create a short video for our organization, we thought something short and sweet covering a 5 minute timespan would suffice. In connecting and working with Nick he quickly made me realize that our story, impact and reach was far more than a five minute video. We created a short film, not only did Nick film the piece, he worked closely with me, line by line, detail by detail to make sure our organizational message got out to the community. Nick's eye for detail and perfection made our short film shine. We were lucky enough to show this film to a room full of community members, many shed a tear, many smiled, many giggled, but all learned and heard our message. The film had a great impact on our organizations reach, our community awareness and our financial resources that are required to serve our community. This film will be shared for years to come and the impact will surely grow with it. Following its debut our support has grown, with new donors, sponsors and partners. Hearing people directly quote a line in the film has reassured us that hiring HatChap for our production was exactly what we needed!"

Cody Hall, Musician
This was my first time working with Nick Bohle, and HatChap Productions. The work done on my music video “Firecracker” showcases his exceptional talent. The video is a visual masterpiece, with Nick’s eye for incredible lighting, there is depth and emotion in every scene. Nick has a keen eye for creating amazing storylines and within a few moments of chatting we had a vision for the video. Nick was on the ball for every minute of filming and production and was a great leader, his crew was professional and fun to be around and the atmosphere made the experience all the better. Nick’s masterful editing enhances the overall experience, creating a seamless flow that captivates from start to finish. This video has helped me to reach new heights with my music and I’m confident the next project will be even bigger and better!

Super solid production. Easy to work with. Even easier to negotiate with. The work Nick did for my music video was absolutely phenomenal and my best release yet. Thanks Nick and I highly recommend HatChaps for any and all production needs
