Testimonials
Science is exciting -- but too often, the technical aspects block a clear message. We chose to work with Barbara Garland because of her skill in coaching passionate scientists toward a crisp and engaging story. The result was a video series that brings the science to life!
- Jeanette Miller, Associate Director, Delaware Environmental Institute
I have worked with ImageVisions on many occasions. Barbara Garland produced medical communication videos for global distribution for us. Her interaction with thought leaders, clinicians, and scientists was outstanding and she managed the field crews extremely well. She always delivered to our satisfaction, on time, and according to budget. Beyond this it was always a great pleasure working with her since she had a great sense for important details post production.
- Carl Pommer, Boehringer Ingelheim International
I highly recommend Bobbie, who was brought in many times to lead media training sessions for American Express executives. Her knowledge as a communications consultant and ability to gently advise senior leaders at the company were key to our strategy of developing effective spokespeople. Working with the Public Affairs team, she helped craft concise messages on several major announcements and helped us leverage the news angles. In all respects, she's prepared and reliable--a delight to work with.
- Christine Meyer-Oertel, Avenue 3 Creative Group
The proposition to assemble and contract with nine video crews from seven states, gain access to military installations, and capture very personal stories from 77 individuals including U.S. wounded warriors and highly decorated military personnel did not deter for a moment Barbara Garland, Founder/Executive Producer, ImageVisions. In fact, it launched a highly productive partnership that created the first-ever video report to a military funding agency.
With meticulous attention to detail, Barbara provided constructive input and leadership throughout the process: from concept development, to logistics, budget management, and on location field-production, from animation and program design, through post-production. I enjoyed our collaboration. Barbara kept an eye on the target messages as well as on the visual composition of each interview and an ear to the way individuals expressed themselves often encouraging them to share more than we could have expected.
The result is an impressive video library that describes research-to-technology development projects, human clinical research, and efforts to establish promising models of multi-disciplinary rehabilitation care for wounded U.S. service members. Without hesitation, Barbara Garland/ImageVisions will surely be the first I consult for any video project in the future.

Sometimes a project needs more than the obvious, it needs the finesse of a true wordsmith and the vision of a communicator. Barbara is both and so much more. She has the insight to tell a story beyond the obvious. She also has the ability to soothe the savage project manager... she manages schedules and production with aplomb and remains sensitive to the needs of the client throughout the project.
