We provide Business Branding services including corporate video and design projects to small and large businesses. We believe businesses deserve more than just a professional product, we want to promote an image for businesses and consistently brand them. Giving clients a better return on their investment is our ultimate goal.
Advertising gets attention, but what better production value has is more credibility, a reassurance to the customer that the business has a reputation worth buying from. In addition to developing a brand for the client, we want to be personable and friendly. We want the entire experience to be an enjoyable creative process where the client is happy with the planning, production and final product.

Chris Franklin Bio
8 time Promax and 4 time Mid-South Region Emmy Award winning motion graphic artist/video editor Christopher Franklin began CB Video and Design with wanting to develop the public persona for businesses in the Mid-south. He wanted to maximize the potential client base for regional businesses, giving Mid-south independant companies and franchise businesses a fighting chance against worldwide and national competitors. He believed that just because a business is a regional operation doesn't mean it should get local quality production work.
With his strong background in creative editing with non-linear systems and an expert in Photoshop and After Effects, he became an intrical part of the WHBQ FOX13 Promotion Department as the Design Director. His work at WHBQ has won Regional and National Awards/Recognition for Writing, Editing, Designing and Campaigning. While enrolled at Fisk University he produced a local TV progam called FISK TV that chronicled the happenings at Fisk University in Nashville, TN.
While working for FOX13 he began to work freelance projects more consistently and felt his skill set was too diverse to work solely as a Graphics Manager. The friendships and alliances he made with other video and design professionals around the Mid-South gave him the confidence and enthusiasm to go into business for himself.
CB Video & Design was established in January, 2006 by Christopher Franklin and his network of highly skilled commercial production freelancers.
