Business Person of the Month

  Jason Harris CEO/Owner: Maxx Fx Media

Jason Harris calls his business, Maxx Fx Media, a one-stop professional visual media shop.  The company specializes in video production and graphic design.  His video productions include TV commercials, music videos, corporate and educational events, wedding documentation, live shows and more.  Print ads, CD covers, spines and tray labels, posters, flyers, logos, letter heads and business cards are the most common offerings in graphic design, but he says he can do anything a business wants with visual design.

Born and raised in Greenville South Carolina, Harris moved here in 2004 with the intention of opening a business.  The music industry is what initially drew him to Baton Rouge. He ran his own recording studio for two years in rented office space upstairs over a local dentist's office. That business, called Absolute Recording Company and Entertainment Group, LLC, made videos for various recording artists; he also did graphic design for the albums.  He worked with recording artist Max Minelli in 2006 and with Lil Boosie (rapper) and Lil Duval (comedian) in April of 2009 as a Music Video director.  Read More...
