Son of Legendary Sportscaster Carries on His Father's Legacy in Broadcasting

John Schenkel of Schenkel Productions, son of legendary broadcaster Chris Schenkel, continues his father's excellence in broadcasting; Schenkel Productions, providing video programs nationwide, enters its 20th year in business with a new cutting-edge website

NORTH WEBSTER, Ind., Feb. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- Even though the two were on different sides of the camera, John Schenkel was privileged to work with his legendary broadcasting father, Chris Schenkel. Taught by the best, John carries on his father's values and traditions in television broadcasting with his company, Schenkel Productions.

As Schenkel Productions enters its third decade, the initial success is attributed to John following advice from his father to start his own company. "I was so fortunate to have not only great parents, but the best advisor in terms of my career. He was always there for me, making sure I made the right choices in business and life," John says.

The career of John Schenkel in video production began as a sixteen-year-old at the 1980 Lake Placid Winter Olympics. There he worked alongside his father as a production assistant. John took full advantage afforded and absorbed the behind-the-scenes production of an event where the eyes of the world would be tuned in. Schenkel Productions has been associated with past and current Presidents, numerous television networks, The Oprah Winfrey Show, Fortune 100 companies and live multi-camera events across the country.

This 20th year at Schenkel Productions sees an implementation of a new cutting-edge website. This is a tribute to his father's guidance in the business and how proud John is to be running a business with the Schenkel name. "The site is easy to navigate and visitors can easily find out about my company and take a look at my portfolio of past work. I even switch sides of the camera for a change by introducing the site on camera. Dad really would have gotten a kick out of that," John says.

Setting your company apart from the competition is a major goal in the business world. John believes in a hands-on approach in every aspect of the production process. "I believe this gives an edge over the competition," John says. Mobility is another feature Schenkel is proud of. "I rarely edit in the comfort of an edit suite. I offer totally mobile full HD editing. Technology has made it possible for me to edit anywhere. Clients like the fact that I can come to them to edit. Anywhere! I have even edited on a plane," John says.

Whether he's a videographer, producer, editor or DVD author, John looks forward to a next new challenge in his business. He points toward providing excellent, cost-effective video programs for his clients while leaving them with a pleasant experience in the process.
