Our Story
Something Weird Media is a film production company with several years of experience in the film and television world. Based in Atlanta, GA, SWM has quickly become the problem child for two best friends from college with a love for creating captivating stories through images. Over the past 8 years, we’ve gone on to shoot for ESPN, Paramount, CBS, as well as creative form content such as music videos, narrative features, and commercials. Through each encounter, we still continue to learn and better ourselves and those around us to become the best that we can be.

Alberto Garcia
SOUND MIXER
Just ‘cause sound travels faster underwater, doesn’t mean your video has to sound garbled. Bad visuals can be salvaged, but bad sound can ruin the whole experience. To really bring that crisp factor, we contact Alberto Garcia, lead sound mixer at Soft Sticks Sounds.

Eric "Maverick" Dodson
DIRECTOR/CINEMATOGRAPHER
There’s plenty of fish in the sea, enough that we can call on NCAA Division II All-American Quarterback, and award winning, multi-feature DP, E.A Dodson over at Blueprint Films to lead the charge and steer any production to the finish line.
