PSA

A story that creates feeling

OUR MISSION

Anyone can pick up a camera and capture a moment but we do more than that, we strive to do more than that. Our goal is not to show you what that moment looked like but rather what it felt like, to create a story, and to let our passion for creating emanate in everything we do. That is how we approach every project. The story, your story, will always come first. So let’s sit down and talk about the story you want to tell.

A FEW OF OUR FAVORITE THINGS

Our Happy clients.

“For the past 6 months, I have had the pleasure of working with Shawn Wehland of Sweland Productions to develop two Public Service Announcements to accompany the drug prevention efforts of Carroll County Public Schools.  Shawn worked collaboratively with representatives from Carroll County Public Schools to create our version of a public service announcement initiative entitled, “Dear Future Me.”  This project focuses on positive social norming through the sharing of future goals and aspirations of five local teenagers.  The teenagers wrote letters to their future selves incorporating the message of the trying to be drug free.  Shawn’s vision for this project was incredible.  He took the letters of five students and intertwined their words creating one powerful message.  The purpose of this PSA is to empower students to make good choices now and in the future.  Because of Shawn’s efforts and talents as a videographer, we were successful in creating a message that will positively influence thousands of local youth.

While filming the PSA, Shawn was able to listen to what we wanted as an overall message and make suggestions for what would appeal to youth in our target audience.  He made all students feel comfortable on film and used his experience to streamline the filming process.  He took numerous shots of each student and was able to edit those images into an inspirational and cohesive message for youth.  Shawn and Sweland Productions was extremely professional and timely at each of the filming sessions.  Shawn was also flexible with the editing of the final product making sure the video was exactly what we wanted.  I highly recommend Shawn Wehland of Swehland Productions for employment opportunities.”

“Wow. We can not speak highly enough about Shawn. He is truly talented and passionate about his work. He didn’t just capture video footage of our day, he put clips together in a beautiful and artistic way to create a story about us as a couple that included our most favorite memories from our wedding. It is something we will cherish forever. Shawn is so kind, funny and easy to be around which is important in someone who will be spending the majority of the day with you. He is organized and professional; we spoke on the phone a few times before the wedding so he could get to know us as a couple and make sure we were on the same page about the timeline of the day. During the wedding Shawn and his second shooter were everywhere, but they were not intrusive or “in your face”. We hardly even noticed they were there – they were essentially ninjas! We are so glad we chose to have a videographer at our wedding and over the moon we chose Swehland productions. Thank you Shawn and Tony!”

“Shawn and his wife, Kacie, did an AMAZING job on our video. It exceeded my expectations and I couldn’t of asked for a better video. Shawn made a point to get to know my husband and I so he could ensure the video was exactly what we wanted. My husband and I are not the typical camera type, but Shawn did an excellent job of making sure we were comfortable. It felt entirely natural having him there, which was a big fear of mine. I would highly recommend Shawn and his team, they are the best in the game!”

10 stars!!! Shawn and his wife Kacie are amazing. I wanted to write a review before I received my video back. I feel like that speaks volumes to who they are as professionals as well as people. They instantly make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. They went above and beyond to capture every detail and I felt as though they listened to my ideas as well! I would recommend them to anyone! Truly amazing! Thank you both for capturing the most amazing day of my life.!”

“Shawn and his team were phenomenal. They exceeded all expectations and produced the most amazing highlight video. From the beginning Shawn was easy to communicate with, very attentive, professional, and super creatively focused. He travelled all the way to Pennsylvania for our wedding. Not only did he make a connection with the bridal party and guests, but he was able to capture the hometown spirit of where we got married. His attention to detail and personal touches are spectacular. His strong work ethic is evident in everything he does and,most importantly, he takes time to get to know the couples he works with. Our wedding day was filled with so many laughs and it was great to share those special memories with Shawn. Everyone is still singing his praises even weeks after the wedding. I could not be more pleased with his services. If you are looking for a videographer, book Shawn asap and you won’t be disappointed”.

“I am employed at the Carroll County Health Department and I have worked on several projects over the past 5 years with Shawn and I highly recommend him and Swehland Productions. He is extremely professional,talented and creative. Shawn has an amazing eye for detail and can take your initial thoughts and ideas and tell an incredible story that is both griping and beautiful. My experience with Shawn is not one with a wedding, but I have viewed his work and again, just amazing. I work with substance abuse prevention, so the topics that Shawn has had to deal with on the video’s he has created for the Health Department have been of a very delicate and serious nature, with the end result of changing people’s lives.

Most recently, Shawn wrote, video graphed and directed the movie “Heroin Still Stills” for the Office of the State’s Attorney of Carroll County and the Carroll County Health Department. I knew Shawn was the right person for this project because of his complete devotion to his work, but also because of his compassionate nature and ease with dealing with people. “Heroin Still Kills” quickly became much more than a project for Shawn, his entire heart and soul were thrown into every scene, every shoot, every interview he conducted. Shawn wanted to be sure he represented the message parents who have lost a child wanted to share, or a lesson that someone in recovery has learned or the struggles of family members. Shawn conducted focus groups to not only gather information for the video, but to gain a better understanding and feel the chaos of addiction and the effects it has on loved ones and society. This was way beyond the call of duty, but he wanted to do this monumental educational piece justice in the hopes of creating a message that not just young people, but any one who saw this movie, could understand substance abuse, how easily it can start and hope for the future. The movie turned out amazing and has had great reviews. Again, I highly recommend Shawn”

Choosing to work with Shawn and Kacie was one of our best discussions we made for our wedding. Their were other vendors we chose but having Shawn near while our special moments were happening was something truly magical. A piece of mind of whatever was going on we will be able to rewatch and enjoy over and over again. Working with a vendor that you get along with is very important. Their personalities together is a team work. Kacie and Shawn think alike and know how to capture your day perfectly. Work with them. You won’t regret it!”.
