Who We Are

Shades Studios is a full-service media production company. We develop media campaigns, strategies, and produce media for the purpose of helping businesses achieve their goals. We have an extensive 14-year track record of developing and managing media plans and producing media to increase sales and improve bottom lines for clients ranging from Fortune 500 companies, governments, non-profits, institutions, individuals, and small to medium-sized businesses.

What We Do

We are a results-driven production company that develops and manages media plans for meeting goals. We often manage the entire media plan for a business serving as their media production and management arm. We also support other media producers, agencies, and distributors with pre-production, production, and post-production services across the various stages of media production and distribution.

To better understand what we do let’s look at some examples of work we have performed for our clients.

  • We launch products for industry leaders like MGM, producing 500 videos for the BetMGM App distributed across social media.

  • We triple the size of businesses like AccuForm Precision, a B2B manufacturer, by developing a media plan for their website to increase sales.

  • We sell products like MVMT watches through video campaigns and product videos.

  • We produce feature films that air nationally like America’s First Guru distributed on PBS and in theaters.

  • We assist other media producers with specific needs in the pre-production, production, and post-production pipeline such as for the film Stolen Dough, an AGBO film in which we managed the post-production.

  • We produced a case study documentary for the federal government outlining a grant program named Fresh Start.

  • We develop media plans and strategies for clients with multiple brands and products such as holding companies, agencies, manufacturers and distributors like Kanematsu, a distributor and manufacturer for who we developed a media plan and produced videos for over ten brands.

  • We serve as the media production arm of agencies and businesses that rely on us to produce media to meet their goals.

Our results speak for themselves and can be seen in the many case studies we feature on our website. The media we produce along with the strategies we employ have tripled the size of multimillion-dollar companies, launched video campaigns for Fortune 500 companies resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars in profit, and have pioneered trends in the marketing and advertising industry.

Why choose Shades Studios?

By being a results-driven company with a long track record of achieving goals for businesses the key difference maker for Shades Studios is that we consistently meet the goals for our clients. Our past success with growing businesses, improving bottom lines, and the experience that comes with producing for national broadcast, theatrically released films, and commercials is what sets us apart. While many other media businesses and media producers claim they increase sales, the reality is the majority of them don’t have a track record or the capability to meet the demands needed to build a successful media plan to achieve goals. By working across the board in a multitude of industries and producing unique videos for different needs we have the past experience and insight into future trends that allow our business and our clients to thrive.

Shades Studios is a future-thinking business that examines current strategies that are effective for achieving business goals now and successfully predicting marketing and advertising strategies for the future. The most significant example of this was the fact that we predicted the role of artificial intelligence in advertising in 2019 in an event we held with Google, well before AI was introduced on a massive scale into marketing and advertising in 2024. We are able to predict trends by having relationships and partnerships with industry leaders in marketing, advertising, and media distribution and by relying on past experience to analyze the future trends.

By predicting trends we are able to better adapt to whatever the future may hold for our clients. Looking at the events of Covid-19 which shut down production of media on a grand scale due to restrictions, we developed a solution for Anheuser Busch that allowed their “Busch Guy” character, who you may have seen in the 2024 Busch Super Bowl commercial, to live stream a gameshow from his own house while our team miles away in a different state managed the technical side of the stream. We were at the forefront of introducing UGC (User Generated Content) into the marketing and advertising industry which allowed brands to continue reaching their audience.

The multiple types of media we produce and the strategies we employ to produce them make us a good fit across the board for those looking to employ a business to manage various media requirements. Our productions are not one size fits all. A media plan we build to grow a billion-dollar Fortune 500 company is vastly different from a plans we build to grow a small business. We have successfully grown businesses of all sizes by building unique plans tailored to the size of the business, its budget, industry, and goals.
