Re-enactment video, 19th century. How did we pull this off?!?

Here, we dive into our archives, and some of the very first images captured around the time of the founding of McLeod Media, in 2013.

These images remain some of the most intricate, hard-earned, complex and rewarding visuals we’ve yet captured. Replete with costume rentals, actors (students, who graciously volunteered), period items, and locations that enabled us to make this documentary look like the real thing.

All of these actors amazingly donated their time and talent, else the production would not have been possible.

The 2.5 year-journey to make this documentary film for the 175th anniversary of Erskine College is a story in and of itself, a story that was in fact the first chapter in our company history. We acknowledge and give thanks to David Earle and Cliff Smith here, as the project never could have happened without them. There are so many others who were instrumental … a growing number have passed on, and it’s impossible to name everyone.

Without them, it’s hard to imagine McLeod Media getting the start that we needed, leading us to where we are today.

So, who’s ready to produce the next period documentary with us?

This next polar vortex and accompanying snow for much of the U.S. has us flashing back to a fun story, three years ago almost to the day.
