From Biscuits to Blockbusters

MEET DYLAN.

Dylan Kennedy is the master of controlled chaos — whether he’s keeping a video shoot running like clockwork, orchestrating the rhythm of a bustling kitchen, or managing a high-energy event without breaking a sweat. Before joining 6 STRONG MEDIA, he fine-tuned his logistics wizardry as a community and team leader at Maple Street Biscuit Company, and later leveled up as the Food & Beverage Manager at The Westin. Now, he’s applying that same precision to production coordination, making sure every shoot runs smoother than a perfectly buttered biscuit. 

Off the clock, Dylan is a proud new dad, a devoted husband, and a connoisseur of action movies — because life is better with explosions and epic one-liners. A lifelong gamer, he recently retired his legendary “Rage Muffin” handle for the more dad-approved “Dad Muffin” (parenting comes with sacrifices). And when he’s not wrangling logistics or dominating video game quests, you might just catch him busting out a tune on the trombone — because every production could use a little extra brass.

Bye Felicia!

We’re Playing Favorites.

As we kick off 2025, we couldn’t help but reflect on the projects that made last year truly unforgettable. Our team took a nostalgic trip down memory lane to highlight their favorite videos of 2024.


KRIS’ PICK

Fund for Excellence - Fundraising Video 

Combining my two passions — football and filmmaking — is a rare and rewarding experience. So, when we had the opportunity to partner with the Hamilton County Fund for Excellence to help raise funds for turf football fields at public schools across our county, we didn’t hesitate. Our mission was clear: to create a compelling narrative that highlights the importance of 'leveling the playing field,' ensuring that every student, regardless of their background, has equal opportunities to thrive in athletics. 

MANDY’S PICK

Eleven86 Water - TV Commercial

Being from Alabama (Roll Tide!), I have a special place in my heart for working with companies rooted near my hometown. Producing the quarterly TV spots for Eleven86 Water gave me all the feels as this brand brings the perfect blend of Southern charm and creative storytelling to the table.

MADELINE’S PICK

Pinnacle Classical Academy - Recruitment Video 

It's not every day you get to work with family (Shoutout Aunt Wendy!) AND help create an amazing video! I loved being able to capture interviews and footage to show off this amazing school back in my hometown. They are truly making an impact on the community, and I loved being a part of the process!  

BILLY’S PICK

Coker Tire - Brand Video 

The Coker Tire brand video was my favorite project this year. As someone who might describe themselves as a little "vintage" (in the best way, of course), diving into the world of classic cars felt like a perfect fit. There’s something timeless about showcasing the craftsmanship and charm of vintage wheels, which brought back a lot of nostalgia for me. 

CLAY’S PICK

TVFCU - Sizzle Reel

While it was fun seeing my favorite people throughout the Summer, an oversized Jenga competition made for some captivating content to capture. Also, it was nice seeing regular community members get some unexpected financial help. 

Pitch, Please!

5 Pitch Events. 15 Winners. $175,000 in Prize Money.

SCORE’s 60th Anniversary Pitch Competition brought the heat! With 2,200 applicants narrowed down to 60 talented finalists, these nationwide events showcased some of the most innovative small business ideas out there.

Cut! That’s a Wrap, 2024!

It’s the end of the year, and our crew’s feeling beat, 
They’ve worked through the deadlines, the rush, and the heat.  

From filming at sunrise to editing late, 
They’re ready to rest— and not create.   

The editor sighed, “I need a long nap, 
No more cutting footage or fixing a gap.” 

The gaffer sat down with cords in a pile, 
“I’m done with these cables—for a little while.” 

The sound tech said, “I keep hearing faint beeps. 
I think my brain’s editing while I sleep!”

The DP just laughed, “Let’s put it to bed— 
Next year, we’ll focus more on the fun stuff instead.” 

The team packed the gear and turned out the lights, 
Said goodbye to the work and hello to calm nights. 

With family and friends, they’ll take time to rest, 
So in January, they’ll come back their best. 

Fresh and recharged, with new ideas in store, 
They’ll be ready to work and create even more. 

But for now, it’s time to enjoy the year’s end— 
Happy holidays from our team, your hardworking friends!  

A special thanks to all our clients and partners for making 2024 the best year ever at 6 STRONG MEDIA. We appreciate every one of you. 

Where’s the After Party?

Let’s Create Some FOMO!

When the lights dim and the applause fades, what keeps the magic of an event alive? A beautifully crafted event wrap-up video. Not only does it give attendees a heartfelt "thank you" for being part of something special, but it’s also a powerful way to show off what makes your event unmissable.

More Bang for Your Video Buck

How AI is Revolutionizing Video Production for Corporate Clients 

Kristopher Simmons, CEO & Executive Producer, 6 STRONG MEDIA 

Artificial intelligence is no longer a futuristic concept—it’s already shaping various industries, and the video production world is no exception.  

Whether it's enhancing the editing process or streamlining content creation, AI is transforming the way video production agencies, like 6 STRONG MEDIA, operate.  

If you’re a corporate client wondering how AI might influence the services you receive from a video agency, you're in the right place. 

Many clients are curious about AI's role in video production. Will it diminish the creative touch, or lead to inflated costs?   

These concerns are valid, but in reality, AI offers exciting opportunities to improve efficiency, enhance creativity, and potentially lower costs, all while ensuring the highest level of service. 

The Role of AI in Video Production: A New Era of Tools 

Rather than replacing the professionals behind your video projects, AI is a sophisticated tool that empowers production teams to work smarter and more efficiently.  

Remember when digital editing tools first revolutionized the industry?  

AI is following a similar path, providing new capabilities without replacing the human element that makes videos engaging and impactful. 

AI isn’t here to handle every task. Instead, it focuses on automating repetitive processes, like sorting through hours of raw footage or creating rough drafts of scripts, storyboards, or shot lists.  

This gives your video production team more time to refine the story and focus on creative decisions that truly matter to your brand’s message. 

For example, AI can quickly generate rough cuts, suggest transitions, or improve audio quality.  

This allows the creative professionals to focus their efforts on perfecting the narrative and visuals, ensuring your video remains authentic and effective. 

AI in the Pre-Production Phase 

When it comes to pre-production, AI offers unique advantages that can significantly enhance planning.  

For instance, AI can assist in analyzing past performance data to identify themes and styles that resonate with your audience.  

This kind of insight can inform scriptwriting, storyboarding, and even the selection of the right talent or locations. 

AI tools can also improve project logistics, such as organizing shoot schedules or determining optimal filming times based on weather data or natural lighting conditions.  

These enhancements make the entire process more efficient, helping your video production agency plan more effectively and stay on budget. 

 

AI in Post-Production: Faster, Smarter Editing 

Post-production is where AI's capabilities really shine. Tasks that once took hours can now be completed in a fraction of the time with AI's help.  

From automatic color correction to real-time audio cleanup, AI ensures that every technical detail is handled quickly and with precision, allowing editors to use more of your budget to focus on the artistry of the final product. 

One powerful example of AI in post-production is in the editing process. AI can identify key moments from raw footage and suggest optimal cuts, speeding up the creation of a rough draft.  

This doesn’t replace the editor’s judgment but instead enhances their ability to produce a cohesive, high-quality video faster than ever before.  

Additionally, AI tools can generate insights into which segments of your video are likely to hold viewer attention, allowing the team to fine-tune content for maximum engagement. 

 

Moving Forward with AI in Video Production 

As AI becomes an integral part of video production, it offers exciting possibilities for improving efficiency, enhancing creativity, and delivering more impactful content. Rather than replacing the human touch, AI allows your video production team to focus on the areas that require the most creative input and expertise. 

If you’re curious about how AI can benefit your next video project, reach out to us. We’re dedicated to using the best technology available to ensure that your videos not only meet your expectations but exceed them.  

Together, we can create amazing content that resonates with your audience while embracing the future of video production.
