New Team Member at McElroy Films

We’re excited to announce another team member has joined McElroy Films. Evan T. Perry will be working as our staff editor working along side our two producers and three videographers. Evan has been diligently working behind the scenes handling day to day editing. Evan Perry is a Leominster native and has a lot of experience and knowledge to bring to the table.

Evan’s Bio:

Recently graduated Magna Cum Laude from highly esteemed Fitchburg State College Communications program, Evan T. Perry has found a place on the McElroy team as an editor of wedding and corporate videos.

Through out his college career, Evan was known to be a dependable, hard-working producer, writer, and editor. Two of his collections of short stories have won the Louis P. Shepherd Award for Creative Writing and were published in the Fitchburg State annual literary publication, ROUTE 2 (Volumes 1 &2). His schooling concluded with a five-month internship with the internationally known Redtree Productions head-quartered in Boston, MA. Redtree is behind most of the Ocean Spray, McDonalds, Royal Caribbean, and ‘Truth’ Anti-Smoking commercial campaigns among others.

Evan’s artistic talents do not end with editing and writing. He once served as a parish organist in Leominster, MA and has played piano and clarinet since second grade culminating his musical talents as the Drum Major of the Leominster Blue Devil Marching Band in ‘03 and ‘04. He also enjoys drawing and constructing off-beat 3D greeting cards for friends and family out of found materials. However, one of his favorite activities is playing ice hockey (Goalie) whether it be in area men’s leagues or a year-round pick-up game bright and early every Saturday morning.

Evan plans to someday have at least one of his feature film scripts produced and to keep making short films, writing, and playing hockey ‘til he croaks!

Morey Family Chiropractic

McElroy Films is excited to be working with Morey Family Chiropractic of Leominster, MA.

Dr. Kevin Morey, owner and founder of Morey Family Chiropractic is a valuable member of the central Massachusetts area offering his services to the community to create a healthier lifestyle to individuals and families. One of the important messages Dr. Morey tries to educate people about is Subluxation, which is basically the misalignment of the spinal bones which affects the nerves as they exit the spine. Most often this goes unnoticed and is painless to the average person. However, it is surprisingly the root cause of most of the unwanted conditions that many people suffer from every day.

We’re producing three videos for Dr. Kevin’s Chiropractic practice. These videos will help spread the message on the importance of chiropractic work and the importance of wellness.

Press Release

Ben McElroy launches New England based McElroy Films LLC to make professional, high quality video production affordable for corporations, nonprofits and individuals.

Leominster, MA (PRWEB) September 21, 2009 — Video is increasingly important for businesses, organizations and individuals. From businesses looking for corporate videos to set themselves apart from the competition to organizations competing for fundraising dollars, from bloggers embedding video on their sites to brides hiring a videographer for their wedding, from filmmakers working on documentaries to bands making music videos, high quality video at an affordable price is in demand. McElroy Films of Massachusetts is reeling in business by offering professional video production on a budget.

Ben McElroy has incorporated his Limited Liability Company (LLC), McElroy Films, to further the mission of making professional high definition film and video more accessible to businesses, nonprofit organizations and the public. McElroy Films is affordable without cutting corners. McElroy uses his resource pool of industry professionals to create the right team for each project, allowing for a high quality, custom product at an affordable price.

“I started this business because I have a passion for film and video. I like to work with people, figure out their vision and bring that to life. Video production has been around for years and has been very expensive up until this point. The niche I’m filling is the ability to offer inexpensive video without sacrificing on quality.” said McElroy.

McElroy Films produces each project using professional equipment. Tapeless HD cameras combine excellent picture quality with faster processing. Exporting to DVD, Blu-ray and the web is done with lightning precision, getting video to potential customers, donors or friends and family faster. Professional lighting and both wired and wireless audio are the same ones used for professional television, movies and sporting events. McElroy Films uses equipment previously found mainly on television and movie sets, such as GlideCams and dollies, to create trendy cinematic style of shooting.

Every project is customizable from start to finish and budgeted according to the client’s needs. McElroy translates his knowledge of video technology into understandable terms and guides clients toward possibilities they may not have known existed.

“Being young energetic professionals in the video industry we see things differently. We see videos not just constrained to DVD. With social networking sites on the rise, more companies and organizations are turning to online video. Businesses need to get on social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter and embed videos into websites and blogs.” explained McElroy. “People aren’t going to be picking up a newspaper or flipping through the yellow pages. They’re going to be on search engines such as Yahoo, Bing and Google. Businesses need to drive traffic to their websites and get people to stay there and interact. They need to make sure they catch viewers’ attention. What better way to do all that than by adding online video content?”

McElroy introduced a new website to reflect this excitement and forward thinking ambition. It is designed to appeal to both video professionals and the general public. The website has sections for each of the company’s services, a Word Press Blog filled with tips and news, a Press Room with journalist resources and McElroy TV, an online video channel powered by MediaSilo. Kick Start Media customized the site and Studio Press designed the website’s template. It is interactive and easy to navigate. The McElroy Films website is now featured in StudioPress’ showcase and on MediaSilo’s website.
