Years in business
Blitz started the way most honest businesses do - with a frustration & a gap.
In 2016, Matthew Harris recognized a shift most businesses hadn’t fully grasped yet - digital content wasn’t optional anymore. It was the foundation of trust, growth, and storytelling.
But there was a problem.
Freelancers offered flexibility but limited scale. Agencies delivered quality, but with complexity and cost that didn’t fit growing businesses.
No one was serving the middle.
Blitz was built to fill that gap - a true production partner with the quality of an agency and the agility of a small team. Real strategy. Real crew. No unnecessary overhead.
For Matthew, it was never just about production. Years behind the camera shaped a deeper belief: great work deserves to be felt.
That’s still the standard today.
Not just content that looks good - content that does something.
Small enough to care, Built to deliver
Great work comes from people who own the result.
Matthew Harris
Founder & Creative Director
Matthew Good Harris - because "Great" was taken and "Okay" just wouldn't cut it (yes that is his actual middle name). As the founder of Blitz Studios, he turns ideas into cinematic gold. When not filming, he's skiing, traveling, and taking photos of the moon with his drone.
Owen Gervace
Editor & Post-Production Lead
Meet Owen, for 12 years, he’s turned footage into stories and coffee into timelines. Off the clock, he enjoys music, grilling delmonico's or reading on the patio.
Vince McVay
Director & Cinematographer
With over 23 years of experience, Vince is an Emmy Award-winning cinematographer, because some people collect trophies and he just keeps earning them. When he's not making the rest of us look good on screen, you'll find him collecting vintage toys, fixing things around the house, on the lacrosse field teaching his kids.
Brandon Adams
Videographer & Editor
Meet Brandon, working with blitz studios since 2021, tackling any role, rooting for Cleveland sports, and spending time with family.
Joe Crawford
Videographer & Photographer
Meet Joe, a laid-back videographer and photographer with 7+ years’ experience, balancing family life, music, and storytelling through every shoot he captures.

Full-Service Digital Agency
Full-service, but slow, expensive, and your project competes for attention with their Fortune 500 accounts.
What's included on every project
No matter the size or scope.
Experience that transfers
500+ videos across 15+ industries. Chances are we've shot something like yours and have the work to prove it.
Your project gets our full attention
You're not competing for bandwidth with 50 other clients on a board somewhere.
No account manager middleman
You talk directly to the people making your video. No translation layer, no dropped context.
Consistent creative voice
The same team handles concept through delivery. Nothing gets lost in handoffs.
Flexible crew scaling
One camera operator for a simple shoot, full crew for a brand film. Scoped to what you actually need.
Technical and creative under one roof
Cinematography, color grading, sound design, and motion graphics - all in-house.
We move when you need us to
Same-week shoots happen here regularly. Need a crew fast? We'll make it happen.
Quality reviewed before it leaves
Every deliverable gets eyes at the top of the team before it reaches your inbox.
The things we actually believe.
These aren't values we put on a wall. They're the decisions we make on every project-in pre-production, on set, and in the edit.

Strategy before Camera
Every project starts with a brief, not a shoot date. We need to understand what your video needs to accomplish before we determine how to make it.

Partner, not Vendor
We push back when we disagree. We bring ideas you didn't ask for. We care about the result, not just the deliverable. That's what a partner does.

Speed without Compromise
Moving fast doesn't mean cutting corners - it means being prepared. Our workflow is built for speed without sacrificing an inch of quality.

Cleveland Rooted
We live and work here. We know the city, the businesses, the culture. That context doesn't show up on a spec sheet - but it shows up in the work.
.png)
Radical Transparency
Pricing is upfront. Timelines are real. Scope changes are conversations, not invoice surprises. We'd rather have the hard talk early than a bad relationship later.

Craft that earns attention
Premium doesn't mean expensive - it means intentional. Every frame, every cut, every line of copy is there because it serves your audience. Nothing else makes the cut.
