Reviews

Here are a few kind words from kind people I’ve worked with along the way…

Michael Hyatt – CEO, Thomas Nelson (HarperCollins Christian Publishing)

“You took the project to another level. I am glad you are working at Thomas Nelson.”

Phil Keaggy – World Renown Guitarist & Singer Songwriter

“Heidi Segal is a very gifted videographer and editor — a very creative person! She is a pro and top notch in her field. I was invited to contribute my music to her video for our mutual friend… It was an honor to be a part of it!”

Allen Arnold – Thomas Nelson Publisher, Fiction

“Striking images + the right music + dead-on strategy added up to a video that rocked our expectations. Heidi is a major talent who understands creative branding.”

Dan Lynch – Thomas Nelson Publisher, Family Entertainment

“I worked with Heidi for a number of years at Thomas Nelson and always found her to be professional, creative and on time. I would recommend her highly.”

Robert Sanford – Vice President and Associate Publisher Thomas Nelson, Bibles

“Heidi equals professional, equals superb work and happy customers.”

Dave Walton – Master Audio Engineer, Spotland Productions

“May I say? I so enjoy these sessions. Because you choose the talent(s) wisely for your needs. You put a gentle, affirming hand on for guidance. And a handful of takes later, I’m burning you a disc.”

David Teems – Author, Majestie: The King Behind the King James Bible

“I don’t think I was adequately prepared for the video presentation of MAJESTIE: The King Behind The King James Bible. From the opening steps my jaw dropped a few fathoms. Heidi made a complete narrative in less than two minutes time, by a wonderful compression of my book. The narrator’s voice, the choice of lines, the images chosen and how they were employed, the general flow and ease, the detail—all these elements were assembled with a masterful touch. All that to say this: I was blown away.”

David Teems – Author, Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God an English Voice

“It is not difficult to tell that Heidi did a close read of my book, TYNDALE: The Man Who Gave God An English Voice, to create her video presentation. By her grasp of imaginative sympathy, she captured the essence of William Tyndale just as I presented him in the book. I appreciate that. Her use of his quotes stood out to me as well; the way they seem to stand alone, suspended amid all the colorful drama of the piece, adding a touch of highness and gravitas, suitable to the subject. It was wonderful to watch. I was impressed by the pace of the speaker, the choice of images, the movement of the piece, the rhythm, things that suggest direction. Heidi Segal is as much the skilled director as she is visual seamstress. She has a great eye. But she also has a great ear. “Great” is not a word I use lightly or without justice.”

Kevin Belmonte – Author, Defiant Joy; Editor, The Quotable Chesterton

“Heidi Segal is a highly talented practitioner of her craft, and it’s easy to see why her skills are in high demand. I owe her a great debt for so marvelously bringing my books on G.K. Chesterton to life.”

Byron Warner – Actor, Voice Artist

“Heidi booked me as a voice artist several times for The Thomas Nelson Company’s projects. She had written the scripts and served as their producer. She is a very personable and creative person and an excellent producer. I felt that she should have my best work and I worked hard to give her just that. Her devotion to the project at hand is inspiring, and she gets the best from her people for all the right reasons. I would work for her again anytime, again, for all the right reasons.”

Henry O. (Chip) Arnold – Award-winning Actor, Voice Artist, Author

“Sensitivity and imagination are two key components to the creative life and to any act of creation. In all the projects I’ve been privileged to work with Ms. Segal, she has demonstrated not only an abundance of sensitivity and imagination, but the highest degree of professionalism producing the highest caliber of visual and film art.”

Chris Adams – Chris Adams Films

“Heidi is an incredible producer that was passionate about not just getting the job done in a timely and organized manner, but she was passionate about getting the best product possible, and that is a rare thing these days. I had a blast working with Heidi and can’t wait to work with her again!”

Shawna Carter – Thomas Nelson Designer

“Heidi is great, the best supervisor I have ever had. I have learned so much from her since I have started. She understands that this is my first design job and makes an effort to explain EVERYTHING to me.”
