Brad Hagen started Video Resources as a part time venture in October 1979, with a 2800 and Ikegami ITC-350 camera as the entire production arsenal. With Brad's typical work ethic, the company quickly grew to full-time effort; with an office in the Port of Long Beach that featured one linear edit bay and a 3-tube video camera. In 1984, Video Resources moved to a 1,700 square foot space in Orange County. Today, Video Resources has facilities on two coasts totaling thousands of square feet, including ample warehouse and meeting space. By 2007 the company had grown to over 15 employees and a wonderful group of contractors as part of our team.
Fellow video pioneers might recognize these earliest production tools. We've got a few more tools up our sleeve now, with hundreds of items in our rental warehouse.
