Ibanez Guitars by Guitar Messenger – NAMM 2014

About Chris Dingman

Chris Dingman began transcribing artist interviews with founder Ivan Chopik one November weekend in 2007, and before he knew it he was writing reviews, filming interviews and taking care of anything else that needed doing. As he adjusted to his new roles, Chris found himself drawn to the world behind the camera and began experimenting with video in his spare time. Now that he has graduated from Berklee College of Music, Chris is dedicating his time to developing his own videography career.
