Steve Young
Owner
Production Sound Mixer
I was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
From an early age I had a definite case of wanderlust, and took my first opportunity to explore the world outside of Ulster when I
chose to go to university in Manchester, England.
After graduating with a bachelor’s degree in Electronic Engineering, I worked in England for several years before taking what was supposed to be a six-month contract job in Santa Clara California.
That contract got extended, twice… and now I’ve lived most of my life here is Silicon Valley.
History of VIDEOGRAFIX
I've been deeply involved in event and video production since the late eighties. After working for several years on the design side of the industry (first digital video frame-stores), I transitioned into the production side of the business.
I started my own video production company, VIDEOGRAFIX, in the early nineties, focusing exclusively on corporate work, and over the years have built an extensive client list here is Silicon Valley and beyond. The company is still growing today.
I have over twenty-five years of first-hand experience in sound recording, teleprompting, video production, and event/tradeshow development/execution.
