What we do

Making the impossible possible

We have a track record of working with top brands to engage their audiences through content, experiences, and productions. Bottom line: we make cool s**t.

Concept Development

A group of people gather around a table in on set with computers brainstorming ideas

We find that wild ideas are often the stickiest. If there’s a will, there’s a way – and while we don’t have a Will on our team, we will always find a way to bring ideas to life and work with our clients to discover the next big thing.

Production

In this BTS shot, three production crew stand around a camera and look at the shot. One person holds a white skrim to reflect light onto the talent.

From an intimate interview setup to a large-scale media day with a crew of 40+, we’ll help make your capture dreams a reality. With our vetted network of over 100 trusted creators, we’ll ensure logistics run smoothly, talent is happy, and content looks fresh AF.

Animation & VFX

Image from the French Open with both winners holding their trophies featuring white doodle strokes around each cut out in this graphic illustration of the event.

Eye-catching, thumb-stopping animation and VFX are what take a good brand to a great one. We love helping our clients add a little spice to their videos and commercials.

Fabrication

A Broncos player in his orange #31 jersey sits atop a moody, ice throne featuring the retro Denver logo: a Bronco jumping through the letter "D". The athletes sits sassily, leaning one arm on the throne and looking at the camera.

We strive to create enticing and interactive sets and activations for athletes, talent, and fans alike. No set is the same, and we guarantee you’ll want your own photo from the spaces we craft.

Events

A WNBA player sits on a chair in front of a retro TV that is on a stand. Behind the athletes, there are shelves filled with props including a basketball, a neon sign, a few candles and plants. The athlete sits in her pink matching suit set and smiles toward the camera.

We excel at creating moments that capture the big picture through inspirational and entertaining content and activations. Reach out to see how we can help take your event to the next level.

Rentals

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.

In the bottom right corner, there's a text box with the words 'CHANGE THE RATIO.' The image appears to promote diversity and inclusion.

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.

The image shows a beverage can with a label that prominently displays the words "MOVE UKRAINE" in bold white letters over a blue background. Below, the label features a design of sunflowers with text that reads "Pilsner with sunflower seeds." The background behind the can includes an illustrated sunflower in blue and yellow, symbolic of the Ukrainian flag, and banner-like designs with text reading "Solidarity," "Homes," "Jobs," and "Slava Ukraini" (which means "Glory to Ukraine"). The bottom left corner of the image includes the "Move Ukraine" logo.

ART DEPT: MoveUkraine Pilsner

We collaborated with the MoveUkraine team to create assets promoting their pilsner initiative on social media. The project aims to raise critical funds to support the rebuilding of Ukraine.
