Somebody’s Watching You

A company preparing for an IPO has no shortage of advisors.

Investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, consultants and investor relations firms all play an important role. 

But an IPO is as much a communication event as it is a financial one. 

Almost overnight, the audience gets bigger. Employees have new questions. Investors want to know the people behind the business. Customers wonder what growth will mean for them. Recruiting accelerates and teams expand. 

And that’s the part companies don’t always prepare for. 

If I were invited into those early conversations, I’d start by asking how the organization plans to communicate at a completely different scale. 

How will a new employee hear the founder explain the company’s vision? 

How will investors get to know the leadership team beyond an earnings call? 

How will you preserve and share the culture and knowledge that currently lives within a handful of key employees? 

Those questions may eventually lead to video, but they start with something bigger. Maintaining clarity and connection while everything around you is changing. 

Organizations don’t outgrow their ability to operate nearly as often as they outgrow their ability to communicate. 

An IPO just has a way of revealing it faster.

Why Mission Moments Work 

Blue Monarch does incredible work, helping women and their children break cycles of abuse and addiction so they can build a whole new future for themselves and their families. You can always tell people about the work you’re doing, but there’s just something different about hearing it from someone who’s actually lived it. That’s the beauty of Mission Moment videos.  

The people who know it best, sharing it in their own words. And sometimes that connection is all it takes to inspire someone to donate, volunteer, become a client or simply get involved.

Winner. Winner. Chicken Dinner.

Award Videos

Some people are just really good at what they do.

And when they win an award, everyone gets to clap for them. But the really good stuff is hearing the stories about why they deserved it in the first place. Award and testimonial videos let the people who know them best do the talking. 

That’s why these videos are so much fun. Coworkers, friends, and customers get to tell the stories a trophy can’t. The funny ones. The meaningful ones. The ones that make everyone in the room nod and think, “Yep, that’s exactly who they are.” 

So when someone deserves a little time in the spotlight, put the praise on camera. If you have a story worth celebrating, 6 STRONG MEDIA can help you tell it.

Q4 Called. It Wants a Plan.

Q4 has a funny way of sneaking up on you. 

One minute it’s September. The next, you’re juggling year-end projects, a new campaign and something your sales team needs “ASAP.” 

Before things get crazy, now is a good time to look at what’s coming. 

A few things worth thinking about: 

• What videos need to be finished before year end?  

• Are there testimonials you’ve been meaning to capture?  

• Could one filming day knock out multiple content needs?  

• Is there content you’ll need in January that you could film now?  

A little planning now can save a whole lot of scrambling later. 

Basically, future you will really appreciate you getting this figured out. Let’s makes some videos!

Don’t Let It Die

One of the unexpected benefits of spending the last 25 years behind a camera is that you start to notice patterns. 

Not in lighting or composition, although there are plenty of those. I'm talking about patterns inside organizations.  

Whether we’re filming in a manufacturing plant, hospital, corporate office or construction site, there’s almost always someone who has spent years learning something worth sharing. 

A CEO explaining the company’s vision. An engineer walking through a process. A veteran employee sharing something only experience can teach. 

For a long time, I thought our job was simply to capture those conversations clearly and creatively. Over the years, I’ve realized we’re also helping organizations preserve knowledge. 

Once it’s captured, it doesn’t have to live in one person’s memory or disappear when they retire or move on. It can be shared with new employees, customers and the next generation of leaders. 

I still love making beautiful films. I always will. But there’s something pretty special about helping a company hold onto the knowledge and experience it spent decades building. 

How much valuable knowledge inside your organization disappears the moment the conversation ends? 

Maybe that’s one of the most practical roles video can play. Preserving that knowledge so others can benefit from it for years to come. 

Powerful stuff.

Guess Where Our Cameras Have Been

There really isn’t a “typical” filming location at 6 STRONG MEDIA.

One day we’re filming in someone’s living room. The next, we’re inside a manufacturing plant, riding along with a taxi driver or squeezing a camera into a space that definitely wasn’t designed for one. 

And that’s exactly how we like it. 

Great video happens where the action is. In an office, factory, home, hospital, construction site or somewhere completely unexpected. 

With our network of 250+ professional camera crews and photographers across the country, we can bring the cameras to you without the added cost and hassle of flying a crew across the country. 

Wherever you need to capture great content, we have a crew nearby.

Think Beyond the Booth

Want to turn your next trade show or conference into a video content extravaganza?

Here's the plan. 

Before the show, decide what you're capturing. Don't think in terms of “shooting video.” Think in terms of assets. 
 
Pick three to five video types you want to leave with. 
 
For example: 
 
• Customer sound bites 
 
• Expert insights (or FAQs) 
 
• Product or solution walkthroughs 
 
• Event atmosphere and interactions 
 

Once you've identified your categories, create two or three simple questions for each. Prompts like, "What problem were you trying to solve?" or "What's one trend you're seeing right now?" are often all you need. 

Next, schedule content capture instead of hoping it happens. 

Identify customers, partners, or team members you'd like to feature and invite them ahead of time. Even a few ten-minute time slots can make a huge difference. 

At the event, keep things simple. 

You don't need a studio setup, but if possible, find a quiet space or small meeting room near the show floor. Fewer interruptions mean better conversations and stronger content. 

Focus on getting clear, authentic answers rather than perfect performances. Short clips—90 seconds or less—work best. 

Between interviews, capture plenty of B-roll footage. Get wide shots of the event, booth interactions, conversations, product demos, and anything that helps tell the story. 

That footage is what brings future videos to life. 

After the show, organize everything right away. Sort footage by category and speaker, pull your strongest sound bites first, and decide where each piece of content will be used before editing begins. 

A single trade show can easily generate months of content when approached with a plan. 

The difference isn't your equipment or budget. It's having a clear strategy and following through. 

If you'd like help building a trade show video plan or capturing content at your next event, let's connect.

They Not Like Us

Product Photography 

Sometimes the best compliment you can get after a shoot is, "That looks exactly like us." 

That's exactly how National Safety Apparel felt after a recent product photography shoot in Pennsylvania. They weren't looking for flashy concepts or over-the-top edits. They wanted honest, hardworking images that showcased the quality of their safety gear and the people who rely on it every day. That's exactly what we captured. 

One of the coolest parts about what we do is that we don't have to fly a production team across the country to deliver a consistent experience. Our photographers and camera crews are all part of the 6 STRONG MEDIA team, so whether a shoot happens in Pennsylvania or anywhere else across the U.S., our clients know exactly what they're getting. National Safety Apparel worked with our local crew that knew the area, backed by the same creative process and attention to detail every 6 STRONG MEDIA client can expect.

This One is Personal

Recruitment Campaign 

Some numbers deserve a second look. The Chattanooga Area Chamber of Commerce has helped create nearly 30,000 jobs over the past two decades, but this video reminds us that those jobs are more than a statistic. They're first homes, growing families, fresh starts, and the chance to build a future. 

The Chamber's "It's Personal" membership campaign shifts the focus from business to the people behind it. From manufacturing floors and tech companies to familiar Chattanooga landmarks, every scene tells the same story: when local businesses succeed, people succeed. Financial stability. Independence. Opportunity. That's the real impact of Chamber membership. 

"It's Personal" is a simple reminder that economic development is never just about numbers on a page. It's about neighbors, families, and the moments that make communities stronger.

Over the Hill? Not even close.

40th Anniversary Celebration 

When River City Company celebrated its 40th anniversary, they didn’t just throw a party and call it a day. They used the occasion to tell a bigger story. For four decades, they’ve helped make Chattanooga the city people know and love today. When it came time to celebrate that milestone, they wanted more than a look back. They wanted to show where they’ve been and where they’re headed next. .  

The timing couldn’t have been better. Along with celebrating the past, River City Company unveiled its capital campaign for Riverfront Parks Next, giving supporters a glimpse of what the future could look like. Through video, they were able to connect their history with their vision, helping longtime supporters and first-time audiences alike see the impact of their work and the opportunities still ahead. 

One well-planned project turned into three different videos. A look back. A look ahead. And content that helped support a major capital campaign announcement. That’s the kind of planning that makes a video project work overtime. When you capture the right stories and build a strategy around them, every interview, every shot, and every conversation can keep delivering value long after the event is over.
