ABC News Uses Footage from McElroy Films for News Spot
1/28/2011
McElroy Films was called upon this afternoon by ABC News to help with b-roll footage for their “Person of the Week” Segment. The Micky Ward story is know throughout the Massachusetts community for years. However, it wasn’t until recently that this story gained national media attention with the release of The Fighter.
McElroy Films teamed up local media outlets in Lowell, MA and started producing a documentary called: “Golden Gloves”. Which was shelved right around the first time The Fighter went stale. We ended up putting a few segments together since we had all this fantastic footage laying around. One of the bites that survived can be found on YouTube.
Turns out ABC decided they needed additional footage for tonight’s spot and hit the internet scouring the web for more material. That’s when they stumble across our clip on YouTube. After some brief talks and about an hour of FTP-ing. ABC had what they were looking for.

Below you can watch our excerpt from the Golden Gloves.
McElroy Films LLC Expands to Burlington
McElroy Films LLC Expands to New Location: Maintains Quality and Affordability
Burlington, MA – In today’s climate, it is more important than ever for businesses, organizations, and individuals to set themselves apart from their competitors. A video, whether for broadcast, social networking, presentations, or other means, can be the catalyst that allows a business to reach the next level or the non-profit to successfully fundraise. Since its inception, McElroy Films (http://mcelroyfilms.com) has provided quality, affordable high definition video production with those needs firmly in mind. McElroy Films has created content for everything from advertising and public service announcements for corporate, non-profit, and educational use to memorable wedding videography, special events, music videos, and independent film.
“I went into business for myself, first, because I have a passion for filmmaking and, second, because of an overwhelming need for inexpensive, but quality video in a region where video production costs continue to rise,” said Ben McElroy, owner of McElroy films.
After becoming a mainstay in central Massachusetts, McElroy Films was ready to bring its affordable high definition video production and commitment to customer service to the heart of a broader business community; Burlington Massachusetts was the natural fit.
“I wanted to be both more accessible to our clients as well as increase our presence in the Boston Area,” extolled McElroy. “Now clients can visit our easily accessible location and see our production processes first hand. It’s exciting to see video production come together and our clients can share in that excitement.”
McElroy’s mission is to render high definition easily accessible to everyone without sacrificing quality. He achieves this by customizing every project to each of his client’s specific needs. In addition to using his expansive knowledge and experience, Ben McElroy has a network of professionals in the field with which he can confer to create the best possible product. That being said, Ben makes sure that the client is there every step of the way and has full understanding of every element of the production process.
McElroy Films uses all professional quality equipment at every level of production. Cameras, such as the stunningly sharp Canon 7D, record HD video to cards rather than tape to streamline the editing process and get the content onto DVD’s, Blu-rays, and the internet faster and with greater precision. Sound is taken care of by wired and wireless ‘on-subject’ microphones; the same devices used for television and cinema. Once reserved only for high budget productions, McElroy also uses equipment such as dollies, GlideCams, sliders, and professional grade lighting to get that cinematic ‘look’ for any production. With the use of green screen technology, clients can even be interviewed at the new Burlington location and be digitally placed against any background right in the studio.
“Video is no longer limited to distribution by television or DVD,” explains McElroy. “The Internet has evolved into a communal environment where a company’s message can be spread to millions over social networks such as Facebook and Twitter, but that message has to be easily found on search engines such as Yahoo, Bing, and Google to be truly effective. In addition, companies have to find a way to keep users on their site long enough to hear out what they have to say. What better way do grab someone’s attention and get your message across than with embedded videos on home pages and blogs?”

Boston MA Video Production
Timken Company
A few days ago we had the opportunity to shoot for the Timken Company in Keene, NH. They’re a leader in global manufacturing of highly engineered bearings, alloy steels, and related components and assemblies.
Basically they make parts for high profile people like the NASA and the Government to name a few.
We can’t talk much about the shoot because of confidentiality. However we’re excited to be apart of a great show. The rest of the video will be comprised of other footage shot at their headquarters in Ohio.
