What others are saying...
I love working with the Fresh Tape Media team because it feels like an extension of our own, helping make our ideas bigger and better every time.

[Fresh Tape Media's] expertise and ability to pivot endlessly on the fly were game-changers. Our March wouldn't have been as mad or fun without their fantastic support.

Quite literally couldn't have made this (or All-Star Week) happen without the Fresh Tape team!

Fresh Tape Media just "gets it". They have an endless set of tools they can bring to the table.

[Fresh Tape Media] is our go to resource when putting together a team with an ideal skillset for a project.

art department
We owe it all to Art
When not building a startup, our Founder, Jared, could always be found with his dad, Art. The duo rarely missed an Avs, Nuggets, or Broncos game, sharing a love for sports that inspired the creation of our company. After Art’s passing in 2020, Fresh Tape Media established The Art Department: a branch of Fresh Tape Media devoted to making the world a better place, just like Art did.
If you work for a non-profit in need of social media, video assistance, or volunteers, please reach out! We’d love to hear from you.

ART DEPT: Hockey Unlimited Content Capture
Fresh Tape Media partnered with Hockey Unlimited to host a content capture day, where young athletes had the chance to feel like real pros, and Hockey Unlimited was able to capture a wealth of content for future promotional materials.

ART DEPT: WiST Social Media
We partnered with WiST to elevate their social media presence, highlighting their mission to empower women in sports technology through programs, internships, and accessible career resources.
