/ On set of a recent shoot for Titebond / Behind the scenes vs. the actual shot. This footage ended up on the cutting room floor 😉 but our goal is to explore every angle and idea so that when it comes time to build the story, we have everything we need to piece it together.

Second Story Media is a “second story” for founders Scott Gardner and Brad Rodgers. They worked together for 20+ years, producing the TV series Today’s Homeowner with Danny Lipford, before launching their own creative venture. Those years honed their storytelling and video production skills and earned them two Emmy nominations. Scott for writing(2008) and Brad and Scott for editing(2021).

Brad’s attention to detail and stubborn pursuit of excellence are qualities that make a standout cinematographer and editor. Add his creative vision with remarkable sense of aesthetics and you always get beautiful results.

Writing is where Scott shines because he loves the challenge of arranging the precise words in order to tell a great story. His genuine interest in a person’s story combined with his passion for writing enable him to produce and direct in a way that brings the best out of people, allowing for a compelling narrative that gets your attention.

Some photos through the years including a cheers at the 2021 Daytime Emmy Awards, ending with Second Story’s first official shoot on the road for The Weather Channel and Generac in Detroit.
