Corporate Information

Starr Video is a dream come true for Michael and Vicky Strycharske.  Tired of the drudgery of corporate and office environments, they wanted to embark on a more creative and satisfying endeavor.  And so Starr Video was born in 2005 in Tampa, Florida.

Starting slow, the company has grown at a measrued pace allowing the Strycharskes to learn the basics of the event videography business while polishing their talents.  Starr Video provides a balanced and varied selection of services ranging from event projects such as weddings and birthdays to corporate and commercial video. 

The Strycharskes are a potent team, corporate headquaters with Michael handling the technical side and Vicky taking charge of client management. Vicky has become adept behind the camera and provides a creative counterpoint to Michael's journalistic style. The company prides itself in its non-intrusive shooting methodology allowing clients and their guests to enjoy the event without excessive direction or interaction from the production team.

As a member of the Wedding and Event Videographers Association (WEVA), Starr Video adheres to the ethical and professional standards of the organization. The company's underlying philosophy of "Service Leadership" means Starr Video will exceed customer expectations or the job is incomplete.


Co-Owner Bio

Michael Strycharske brings a strong photo journalistic background to the company. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin with a degree in broadcast journalism and worked for 15 years for a varity of newspapers and television companies in New York. The son of a documentary photographer, Michael has been looking through a camera lens since he was 10 years old. He especially enjoys documentary work because it gets him out of the office.

Following his journalism career in New York, Michael has worked as an Information Technology professional for the past 10 years. He has held several management positions in both large and small companies but found that he enjoyed the design of software solutions over the daily management tasks that his job requried. He longed to get back to his photo and writing roots because it "satisfies the soul more than writing code or managing software projects." In June of 2006 Michael received his Masters of Science degree in Technology and Innovation Management from the University of Tampa.

Never far from a camera, Michael has been actively working on a vareity of personal projects. When not wielding a video or digital camera, Michael can often be found prowling the back roads of Tampa on his Harley Davidson Low Rider. He is constantly searching for that perfect project that will allow him to combine his love of motorcycling and videography.


Co-Owner Bio

Vicky Strycharske served for 25 years as a contract specialist for the U.S. government, specializing in purchasing super secret gizmos for the Special Forces unit at MacDill Air Force Base. When not operating a video camera or speaking with Starr Video clients, she currently operates a consulting business - Starr Solutions - that helps small businesses do business with government.

Vicky provides Starr Video customers with the support and direction they need when arranging video coverage of their important, once-in-a-lifetime event. Her background in negotiation and attention to details ensures that each project is handled with the unique attention it deserves. Her deft, personal touch allows clients to concentrate on their family and guests removing all worry and stress over the details of recording their important event.

Ma quande lingues coalesce, li grammatica del resultant lingue es plu simplic e regulari quam ti del coalescent lingues. Li nov lingua franca va esser plu simplic e regulari quam li existent Europan lingues. It va esser tam simplic quam Occidental: in fact, it va esser Occidental. A un Angleso it va semblar un simplificat Angles, quam un skeptic Cambridge amico dit me que Occidental es.
