Arnold Lim is a multi-faceted storyteller, and uses photos, video and written word in creative, innovative ways. Arnold has an incredible talent at using out-of-the box techniques that offer that "wow" factor, no matter how simple and straight foward a job might be. I can't speak highly enough of Arnold's talent and work ethic, but also the incredible person he is. Arnold is one of the most talented people I know, but also hands down the most humble. He works to make everyone on his team feel as though they are offering the greatest talent, and wants everyone around him to succeed. His positive attitude and big heart, shine through in everything he does. Whenever I am working on a project that required a videographer, Arnold is always my recommendation, and the clients are always thrilled with the product he delivers.

Arnold has been part of the Canadian Cancer Society Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock since 2013 and has become a beloved, respected and invaluable volunteer and supporter. Arnold rode as a media rider in 2013 and after that continually provided support to the Tour de Rock each year. His gentle compassion and work ethic are unsurpassed. Arnold has volunteered for many years as our Media Liaison on Tour, taking the most incredible pictures that truly captures the cause; raising money and friends to help kids with cancer. His work is used every year in our overall BC Cops for Cancer media campaigns. Arnold has helped bring the Cops for Cancer Tour de Rock media campaign to a highly professional and an increasing successful level. Arnold is incredibly talented, has vision, and truly makes a difference. Arnold is a perfectionist, and does so in a way that brings this out in all of us. Arnold is a pleasure to work with and we at the Canadian Cancer Society Cops for Cancer cannot thank him enough for his support and contributions!

Arnold was a true pleasure to work with on United Way's video PSAs for bc211. His attention to detail and professionalism when dealing with sensitive subject matters was appreciated. He made everyone on set feel comfortable and he is extremely hard working and open to all ideas. Our team was very impressed with the final product and the PSAs aired on mainstream television stations throughout BC. I would jump at another opportunity to work with Arnold and highly recommend his talents.
