Some of our work

We started our company in 2000 with only two clients, and those clients still work with us on a regular basis.
Patterson Media Team has been indispensable to York College. Whatever we throw at them, they produce a hit! We have worked with them on a range of projects, from academic program videos to several productions for the College’s 50th anniversary. They listen, they work hard, and they produce what we want every time
The Patterson Media Team exemplifies excellence at the intersection of artistic vision, skilled execution, professional service, interactive collaboration, and efficient project management. At the Norm Brodsky College of Business, Rider University, we have partnered with Steve on several key projects, most notably our Alumni Hall of Fame program. For each inductee, Steve conducts interviews with the insight of a journalist, the precision of a biographer, and the warmth of a new friend. His work consistently exceeds our expectations, resulting in a brief yet deeply meaningful tribute video for each honoree.
The feedback we receive highlights these legacy videos as among the most cherished elements of our Hall of Fame tradition. Beyond his storytelling prowess, Steve and his team embody true partnership—anticipating our purpose, capturing our messaging, and adhering to our standards and project parameters. With all types of projects, Patterson Media doesn’t just produce excellent content; they bring our mission to life, always with an eye toward our core business objectives.
From concept to completion, Patterson Media Team worked diligently to ensure our vision was brought to life. Steve and his team skillfully filmed and edited over 60 interviews, creating a library of content dedicated to our corporate culture and values. They were able to distill many hours of footage into several heartful videos that accurately captured the essence of our organization. The final product was an invaluable collection that serves as a powerful tool for employee engagement and recruiting.
Steve and his team were professional, collaborative, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. We spent several shoot days in difficult production environments (active construction sites and warehouses) and despite the challenges, every single interview contained valuable footage. I highly recommend Patterson Media Team to any organization seeking a dedicated and talented partner to tell your story.
Video Production. Pain free.
Much of our work is done in a documentary style, using real-people interviews – your people, your students, your clients – to tell your story with enthusiastic, honest testimonials. We weave the story together with those interviews and dynamic action footage.
We’re the best there is at making people feel comfortable in front of the camera – because when they feel at ease they do a better job of telling your story.
We also do our best to take the hassle out of video production. Want to be with us on the shoot to oversee the production? That’s great! We value your input. But if you’re busy we have the experience to get the job done without full-time supervision.
The Process
To get started on a project we’ll schedule a short pre-production meeting to learn the messaging the video needs to convey.
We’ll ask for details about the key players (usually people that must be included in the video) and the locations to be used.
And then we’ll run with it.
We’ll deliver a first cut of the video that is within 90% of your expectations, and we’ll be happy to re-edit till we get it exactly the way you want.
Pain free.
