Janis Rogan,
SVP/Director of Broadcast, Luckie & Company, Birmingham, AL
Over the years I've worked with production studios from here to yon. But none of them has ever equaled, much less exceeded, the unique blend of imagination, passion, craft, and patience that Diamond Studios routinely brings to projects both large and small. The fact that many of them won awards was secondary for me to the satisfaction of seeing the expressions on my client's faces when they watched the finished product.
Dale Short,
Independent Broadcast Producer. Birmingham, AL
I have worked with Diamond Studios for over twenty years as a creative and television production source. They have been a business partner and our friends. We owe much of our success to their expertise. I recommend Diamond Studios to anyone interested in high quality video and film production and a professional working environment.
Bruce Reid,
Partner, Reid/O'Donahue Advertising, Montgomery, AL
Diamond Studios has been a gem to work with. It’s very important that I have someone ready to help me with my website, whether it’s something simple or complex…and the folks at Diamond Studios are always there when I need them with friendly and insightful assistance.
Christine Clark,
Marketing Director, MemberFocus Community Credit Union, Dearborn, MI
We've engaged Diamond for our video production needs and have been consistently impressed by the timeliness and quality of the product. Chris, and her team, are eminently professional and do what it takes to get the job done to the clients' satisfaction. I would highly recommend Diamond to any firm in need of high quality video or digital media services.
William Trout,
SVP/Director, Internal Communications, BBVA Compass, Houston, TX
I have worked with Diamond for nearly 20 years from when I had my own chain of retail stores to now when I have an ad agency. I cannot say enough good things about them - they are professional, creative, reasonably priced, have the latest technology, produce the highest quality product and, besides all this, are lots of fun. Diamond is incredibly accommodating while working on the tightest of deadlines. I hope I never have to use another studio because Diamond is the best!
Linda Verin,
Owner, Ads That Work, Birmingham, AL
Reliable, comprehensive, peace-of-mind. Those three words accurately describe Diamond Studios. Diamond does what you ask them to do when you ask them to do it. Diamond has the equipment, staff and expertise to produce outstanding video, outdoor, print and digital campaigns. And, I sleep soundly knowing Diamond doesn’t let important details fall through the cracks. I’ve referred them to other ad agencies. I’d refer them to you.
Jim Whisenhunt,
Owner, Whisenhunt Advertising, Birmingham, AL
Working with Joe Miele for the last 15 years has been a pleasure. The creativity and innovation of his group has been vital in the conceptual development of our successful CRM program. He delivers quality products on time and is very knowledgeable of cutting edge technologies. I can depend on Joe to keep me informed of new and exciting opportunities to grow our web and social media presence in the marketplace.
Joy McCord,
VP Marketing, Hibbett Sports, Birmingham, AL
I love what I do. So I found it particularly refreshing to discover Diamond Studios and develop a rewarding relationship with folks who share a passion for great work. The entire Diamond Team offers a can-do attitude, a collaborative environment, a fresh perspective on creative, and a respect for the client’s budget, deadlines and needs. They prove that hard work can still be enjoyable, that modest budgets needn’t mean a modest effort, and that a verbal promise is valued as much as a legal contract. If they say they can do it, they’ll get it done. Well organized and well managed, the team has surpassed my expectations as a vendor – and I now consider them a trusted partner. In this business, these Diamond-folks are rare gems indeed.
SUSIE PENN,
Creative Director, Weintruab Advertising, St. Louis, MO
My first commercial with Diamond studios was in 1996. Former Miss America, Heather Whitestone and Atlanta Braves pitcher John Smoltz were spokespersons for Express Oil Change. With a celebrity’s limited time, everything had to be organized to the minute. Diamond pulled it off. Since that time, I have created dozens of other commercials for the Alabama Department of Mental Health and the Governor’s Office…all with Diamond. Additionally, we have made several documentary films together, including one that received an award from Paramount Studios in Hollywood. Most recently, Diamond helped film tornado relief spots for the Department of Mental Health’s crisis counseling response to the April, 2011 tornado disaster. The spokespersons were NCAA national championship coaches Nick Saban and Gene Chizik. Diamond pulled it off.
DR. JOHN ZEIGLER,
Public Information Officer, Office of Lt. Gov. Kay Ivey, Montgomery, AL
I have personally worked with Diamond Studios for more than three years. Diamond has consistently performed over and beyond my expectations as a production company. Over the years, I have received excellent service that results in high quality productions from Diamond Studios. Because of Chris, Joe and the entire Diamond Studios staff, I can give my highest level of recommendation.
Jeff Davis,
Marketing Director, Signature Homes, Birmingham, AL
Over the past 20 years I've worked with Diamond on a variety of projects ranging from full-blown location shoots to quick revisions of existing commercials. Their creativity, professionalism, and attention to detail are unsurpassed and their prompt response and quick turn-around time when I have a tight deadline is much appreciated. You won't find a better group of people to work with than the Diamond folks!
Susan Bryan,
Partner, Reid/O'Donahue Advertising, Montgomery, AL
I highly recommend Chris. She has truly been a valuable asset for my company. Her work ethic, combined with her attention to details, speaks volumes about her company!
Jeff McAnnally,
President, Macular Health, Inc., Gardendale, AL
Having worked with Diamond Studios for more than 25 years, I can say without any reservation that they are the most professional and detail-oriented production group that I have worked with. They know me, my clients, and consistently offer suggestions that make the spots better than anyone could have imagined. They take ideas and scripts and turn them into powerful video productions. Diamonds Studios – THE BEST OF THE BEST!!
Bill Attaway,

Joe's work ethic, his technical savvy, and his cheerful can do attitude sets him in a special class of Media Influencers.
Bill Whetstone,

Have been doing business with Diamond Studios for approx. 30 years and have shot 1000’s of commercials with them. Easy and fun to work with as they are very professional in the way they treat their clients.
MARK CRAYNE,
Standard Furniture, Birmingham AL
Excellent! High quality work delivered on a timely basis for a fair price. Doesn’t get much better than that. Well, actually, it does. Their straight forward business approach and “let’s get to the point and get it done” attitude is refreshing in an industry that is sometimes prone to puffery and embellishment. And to top it all off, they are very nice people! I give them 5 stars!
JAMES WETTERMARK,
Wettermark Keith, Birmingham, AL
Our firm has worked with Diamond Studios on numerous projects over the years. They have always done an excellent job. They are very professional and know what they’re doing. They have always worked hard to please us and to give us exactly what we wanted at a good value. They have performed with a high degree of integrity and are been dependable and easily accessible. Their final product has always been exactly what we wanted.

Since the beginning, the spots, videos, and websites we have produced together have always had positive results. This is our longest business relationship and we intend to continue it for the future. Expertise, experience, and cooperation best describes our agency relationship with Diamond Studios. We appreciate what they have done for us over the years.
David Ladewig,
President, The Cambridge Agency, Inc., Birmingham, AL
I have worked with Joe and Chris at Diamond Studios since 2003, developing television commercials for different water and theme parks around the country. From start to finish, their professionalism and experience have made it possible, for the parks I worked for, to produce high quality commercials in what were sometimes unrealistic timeframes. In addition to producing great television commercials and video products, their development and maintenance of interactive websites is excellent. When I need a Television commercial, the first thing that comes to mind is contacting the folks at Diamond Studios.
Bob Morgan,
Director of Sales & Marketing, Magic Springs Water and Theme Park, Hot Springs, AR
Joe was always on top of the 1000 details that make for a successful commercial production shoot - this is not easy to do when you are also shooting the spot, as Joe often did. When I would get on set, it was squared away and ready to go - and his attitude is always positive. There just isn't a "can't be done" thought in his head, a quality I admire greatly.
John Zimmerman,
President, Chief Creative Officer at The Aberdeen Coalition
Diamond Studios represents 20 years of excellence for me personally and the organizations I represent. Our professional relationship evolved from interviewing multiple companies and proposals to a single phone call .. whether a 30 second television commercial or a half-hour training or information based video, Joe Miele and his staff knows how to pull it off. Diamond Studios listens, then translates a rough idea into a fresh, creative and exciting end product.
Steve Rodgers,
Marketing Director, Texas & Alabama Manufactured Homes, Austin, TX
My experiences with Chris and her team at Diamond have always been positive. This is a company that delivers the product you ask for, at the price you agreed upon, on time. In the "last-minute-change" world of video production, that's the best you can hope for.
Barry Copeland,
Sr VP/Operations, Birmingham Business Alliance, Birmingham, AL
I have known Chris for many years, and found her to be creative and organized, no job was too large or too small.

Joe delivers top notch results at very affordable prices. In an industry with a wide range of talent (and prices) Joe was able to consistently exceed my creative expectations while maintaining budget integrity. His positive attitude and strong work ethic make him a joy to work with, and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get more bang for their advertising/video production buck.
Bryan Bossart,
General Manager, APCI, LLC, St. Louis, MO
I've worked with Joe and his company for many years with numerous clients for both creative advertising production and web site design and implementation. He is the first, and usually only, person I turn to for work that I know will provide my clients with great results for their budgetary allocations and within their often-demanding time frame.
Bill Mylius,
Marketing Consultant, Mylius & Associates, Birmingham, AL
Over the 20 plus years of working with Joe, I never had a worry as to the quality of production that would be produced. We did thousands of commercials and training videos for the retail businesses that I served as Ad Director/Marketing VP. From concept to final product, it was always a pleasure and relief to have Joe and Diamond Studio there to assist in the many challenges I faced.
Judy Butler,
CEO, Bayshore Retreat, Birmingham, AL
Joe is one of the smartest CEOs on the planet. He is an amazing marketing guru with ideas and concepts that make sense and generate real ROI. Joe is a master at finding the best solutions and executing to measurable success.

Diamond Studios provides Hollywood quality production of product and company videos. Cooperative, capable and creative staff combined, with insightful and flexible management make a difficult process easy. Diamond Studios is by far the most talented, insightful, capable and cooperative marketing company that we have worked with during our 28 years in business. We have operated through the US, Europe and Asia and Diamond Studios is unique. Each experience we have had with them during the past two decades has been a blessing and an overwhelming success.
Bob Singleton,
President, Sidewinder Products, Birmingham, AL
It’s rare when you find someone that can provide a valuable resource with the expertise, tenacity, cutting-edit, creativity and a great price-value provider. It has been my pleasure to work with Diamond Studios for the past 13 years. The capabilities of Diamond seem to be unending. When it seemed that we needed the impossible, Diamond delivered. When we needed an additional creative touch, Diamond delivered. When we needed that insight into cutting-edge technology, Diamond delivered. I could go on and on. Maybe it’s remiss on my part to state Diamond delivered; when in fact, Diamond over-delivers. It’s reassuring to know that I have Diamond as a resource and when I need them – Diamond delivers!
Neal Smith,
President, Team Wellness, Inc., a franchise of Medifast Weight Control Centers, Birmingham, AL
I have worked with Joe on several projects. I have found him to be an expert in video and web production. His professional work has helped me win several contacts in excess of $250,000. I highly recommend Joe, and his company, Diamond Studios.
Robert A. Needham,

Joe is just an absolute delight to work with: high energy, great ideas and a can-do spirit. He's an absolute pro at what he does plus he can helpfully advise you on emerging trends in the constantly evolving world of media and technology. But perhaps most importantly of all, he can solve/handle whatever problems crop up and still deliver a quality product on time and on (or under) budget. Never had an unpleasant moment in working with Joe and am pleased to highly recommend him.
Tom Cosby,
VP/Investor Relations, Birmingham Business Alliance, Birmingham, AL
I have worked with Joe on several projects from web site to TV programming, TV commercials and Medical Info spots used to showcase some of the leading physicians and practices in the South. He has been good to work with my ideas and bring them to life as good as I had envisioned them. On many occasion both for TV and for web animation I have had my ideas that Joe has enhanced on many occasions and made the finished product look as good as I had hoped for.
Sandy Patterson,
Founder, Best EduK-8tion, LLC, Birmingham, AL
I worked with Joe for 2 years while I was working at Weintraub Advertising and I have to say that Joe was a pleasure to work with. Joe was a great communicator and no matter what the project was he wanted to make sure he understood exactly what the client’s wants and needs were. If there were a problem Joe would fix it without question. All of the production work that Joe did at Diamond was a job well done. Joe was wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend his work to anyone in need of his talents & services.

I first worked with Joe in the early 1980s. As a video producer, I look for production companies that can help me achieve end product that meets a specific client need, delivered on time and within budget. Joe helped me deliver all of these for my clients.
Dell Witcher,
Communications Consultant, Birmingham, AL
This is my strong recommendation of Joe Miele and Diamond Studios. I worked with Joe and his staff on dozens of video and web projects during 7 years as Director of Communications & PR at Civitan International. Civitan already had a established relationship with Joe when I came on board, but it was well-earned. Joe and his team were always able to produce a high-quality product at minimal expense, and were always happy to address concerns and update products as needed. From training videos to news programs to our organization website, they did it all and rarely disappointed. In Birmingham, AL and beyond, I wouldn't hesitate to turn to them again for any important web or video project.
David Bledsoe,
Communications Director, Tampa, FL
Joe Miele is an innovative entrepreneur who's company, Diamond Studios, is extremely versatile in their services provided. There is no coincidence that he has been in business as long as he has, nor is there any irony in the fact that Diamond offers as many different development capabilities. If you want to produce a high quality ad, web site, or strategize your overall marketing platform by leveraging your media to the highest extent, Joe and Diamond Studios is the ultimate option to pursue.
Jim Cavale,
Founder, Eporro, LLC, Birmingham, AL
Joe is a pioneer in the video and television business here in Birmingham. I've learned much from him over the years. His work is always exceptional.

Lori Nelson,
Owner, N * Vision Productions, Los Angeles, CA
Joe and the staff at Diamond Studios developed the website for Community First Credit Union, and over the last several years have been responsible for updating and improving the site. I can always depend on Diamond to find a way to accomplish whatever I have in mind. They work quickly and I always thought I got a great value. I can recommend the folks at Diamond Studios for website development, as well as video and audio production. They are fun to work with and produce great quality.
Kimberly Deppe,

Joe's a secret weapon. Hire him before your competitor finds out about him and requires exclusivity.

VP, Southern Research Group, Jackson, MS
We have partnered for many years with Joe and Diamond. No job was ever too big or too small - he always came through with great creative ideas, worked fast and professionally and always came in on the budget. I would highly recommend Joe and his team.
Bill Stoeffhaas,
Owner, Style Advertising, Birmingham, AL
I am constantly impressed by the professionalism and talent of the Diamond production team. Whatever the project, broadcast or web, I am always proud of the work that we do together. Sometimes the projects are small, but they give the same enthusiasm and quality in all of their work. They always add to my ideas and create something better than I had envisioned. This keeps me coming back to them each time I have the opportunity. I would highly recommend Diamond Studios for your next film, video or web project.
Lisa Alexander,
Owner, Alexander Advertising, Birmingham, AL
Working with Diamond Studios has been a life-saver over the years. When I think about it, I believe I've personally been working with them on videos and other projects for more than 10 years and it's been awesome to have been in partnership with them for a third of their business life. Thanks to Chris, and the talented and patient team at Diamond, I now know more about producing videos than I thought I ever would … the concept is no longer frightening to me. And, because they can do miracles through videotaping and editing, I always come out with a professional and polished video for which I can take all the credit at work. Congratulations Diamond on your 30 year anniversary! Definitely count me in for the future!
Vanessa Matthews,
Director of Internal Marketing & Employee Communications, BBVA Compass, Birmingham, AL
I know when we have a project that involves working with Diamond, I’m going to get the best customer service and top notch quality work. I often call Chris, “Superwoman”, as she can, and will do, anything in a flash to get the job done! As a Production Coordinator, I put a lot of faith in Chris and the staff at Diamond to help me complete my job, and they have never let me down! In such a technologically savvy world, emails can be the main line of communication, but I make a point to pick up the phone and call Chris because she has such an enthusiastic attitude towards her clients and it's obvious customer service is her number one priority!
Kari Lochamy,
Media Buyer/Production Coordinator, Totalcom Marketing, Tuscaloosa, AL
Our experience with Diamond Studios has been an amazing journey and it has taken our marketing efforts to a whole new level. From pre-production to a completed product, Diamond Studios consistently deliver high-quality work with true professionalism. We were so impressed by their TV production capabilities that we called on them to create the Resort’s very first mobile app! They are doing a phenomenal job at helping us expand our reach to a wider audience.
Chad McKenney,
Advertising Director, Pearl River Resort, Choctaw, MS
Working with Diamond Studios on any project is a pleasure! The staff at Diamond first seeks to fully understand our project, what we want to produce and how it will be used. Chris Fowler then makes suggestions, not just on the project itself, but how to accomplish all aspects of production with ease, convenience and what’s best for all parties involved. I always refer my colleagues who are looking for video production services to Chris at Diamond. You will be completely satisfied with their expertise and friendly service.
Damian Veazey,
Assoc. Dir, Communications, Lakeshore Foundation, Birmingham, AL
I have had the pleasure of working with Joe Miele on multiple projects over the last twenty years and recommend him fully. Joe brings creativity and a commitment to excellence to everything he is involved with and has surrounded himself with some of the best in the business. Joe has done award-winning work for me and my clients. He delivers on his commitments and is a valuable resource to anyone who works with him.
Bill Thomas,
Strategic Management Expert, Birmingham, AL
Both the quality of work and the service from Diamond is outstanding. Whatever the project – I can always trust they will get it done on time, get it done right, stay in budget and keep me informed during the entire process! I have worked with other production companies that required entirely too much babysitting on my part. I shouldn’t have to point out the best footage to include in the commercial or that the timing is off. And, I don’t have to with Diamond!
Lori Moore,
Production Director, TotalCom Marketing Communications, Tuscaloosa, AL
Diamond Studios provided media support which has enabled Lyman Ward Military Academy to reach out to the world and illustrate our academic and character program for boys. The studios' work has been first class and has enabled our Academy to attract new cadets from as far away as China. Diamond Studios takes our idea and adds their knowledge and talent to create a product that is exactly what we wanted but were unable to express.
Captain Andrew Erickson,
Director of Admissions and Marketing, Lyman Ward Military Academy, Camp Hill, AL
Going the extra mile comes to mind when I think of Diamond Studios! I believe that's how Joe has been able to build a production facility in Birmingham Alabama that can compete anywhere in the Southeast. Another impressive fact is that every Diamond associate mirrors Joe's dedication to creative excellence...no matter how large or small the project. We have consistently been impressed with the creative product Diamond has helped us produce, and that's why I would, without hesitation recommend Joe and Diamond Studios to anyone seeking creative electronic excellence.
Jess Bullock,
President, The Bullock Agency, Birmingham, AL
Diamond Studios has provided media support for Lyman Ward Military Academy. The quality of their work is second to none. What we are trying everyday to teach our young men is what “Diamond Studios” reflects in its attitude toward their customers. Simply put, this is our “Walk the Talk” program and “Diamond Studios” way of life. Our program and their program is a “CHARACTER” program. Diamond Studios is a great organization with great people. I would recommend them to all my friends.
Grady K. Kelly,
VP, Lyman Ward Military Academy, Camp Hill, AL
Over the years, I've had the privilege to work with the talented crew at Diamond Studios on several projects. While in the position of Manager of Advertising at Alagasco, we worked together to produce a series of testimonial TV commercials and later they produced several lifestyle commercials, too. Diamond Studio's talented crew provided creative guidance and were always eager to please and great to work with. Their entire staff made themselves available at all times and the relationship felt like they were an extension to our marketing department. Each member of their team were very easy to work with, extremely passionate about our projects, and worked tirelessly to get the final results that met our needs on time and on budget. And, as an added bonus, both campaigns produced by Diamond Studios actually won national recognition by the Utilities international Communications Association's Awards by winning both Gold and Silver in TV advertising. We were extremely pleased with the professionalism, great service and end results on all the projects we’ve worked on with Diamond Studios. It was wonderful to find such great local talent which made the process even better.
Connie Blalock,
Manager, Natural Gas Education, Alagasco, Birmingham, AL
I have worked with Diamond Studios for several years. They provide great customer service, fabulous production incite and ideas. Our company has seen great results from our website and TV commercials produced by Diamond. I strongly recommend Chris and Joe for your creative needs and projects.
Yvette Weaver,
Owner, Y Media Works, Birmingham, AL
Alabama’s 13 approached Diamond Studios with two goals for a station campaign. One was to create an image campaign that was distinctive in the market with top-quality production values. The second goal was to schedule a one-day shoot that would generate a minimum of seven 30-second spots. Joe Miele, Chris Fowler, and their creative team, are professionals who made this challenging project run smoothly and efficiently while meeting the set goals with a first-class product.
Cil Frazier,
Marketing Director, Alabama’s 13
My experience with Diamond Studios, Chris Fowler, and Joe Miele has been truly amazing. I'm a first time business owner with no experience with multi-media, and the Diamond staff walked me through every step of developing a fully-functioning App with innovative, brand new technology with patience and ease. Their creativity, work-ethic, and responsive to my needs has been above and beyond what I could have imagined. I'm very pleased with the product and the service from Diamond Studios, and I recommend Diamond to anyone with multi-media needs from small businesses to large corporations. They have made it possible for a dream to come true for me and my business!
Tricia Gunn,
Unveiling Jesus, LLC
I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Diamond Studios and Chris Fowler for the past three (3) years. From my first conversation with them, I knew that I wanted to work with them to produce the videos to market my organization's service. I have enjoyed their professionalism, warm and friendly environment, and the beautiful video productions. When I don't know what I want, they are there to lead and guide me to the exact depiction of our service that I wish to portray to the public. Chris is the ultimate business relationship builder and client supporter.
Phyllis Wynn,
Focus On Recovery
Diamond Studios has been a great partner in our video production needs for our website and ATM use. They've been prompt and responsive -- especially when facing multiple rounds of revisions. Diamond did a great job in embracing a creative vision and turning it into something real. I would recommend them to others.

I have witnessed the results of Diamond Studios work from 1991 until the present. Birmingham is fortunate to have a studio with the talent, skills and quality of Diamond Studios, a business that is equivalent to what you would find in Atlanta, New York or LA. I have seen Joe, Chris and other staff members evolve from shooting award winning television commercials (which they still do) to creating web based applications for advertisements, training and development, documentaries, biographies, general dissemination of information and multiple points in between. I have used their products both personally and professionally and will continue to do so as they not only produce the quality I expect, but they also work with clients to find affordable solutions without compromising quality. I highly recommend them for anyone, nation-wide, looking to get a message out to the masses or the few.
Lana Guess Thompson,
Consultant, Lana Guess Thompson Consulting, Birmingham, AL
Chris is a highly organized and capable asset to any work environment. She is always on top of the many projects and deadlines she manages and excels in client services as well. She is a manger that cares as well. There must be a nicer person to work with somewhere but you could spend a long time searching for her. I love working with Chris. Productions are well-planned with attention to detail and yet she is always ready for the next unforeseen challenge.
Dean Benedict,
Producer, Benedict and Associates, Birmingham, AL
I've known Chris for many years. She is dynamic, personable and brings lots of energy to any project. Her company's many awards for video excellence speak for themselves. I'm delighted to have Chris in my network.
Ruwena Healy,
President, Marketing 24/7, Inc., Birmingham, AL
Chris is one of the most positive and upbeat individuals I've ever met. Her attention to the details of the project along with her follow-through is a key reason I continue to work with her. She is top notch and a dynamic leader!
Russell Jackson,
Chief Development Officer, Sight Savers, Birmingham, AL
