Davis Media Access can assist you with many of your audio and video production needs. We provide free project consultation, but charge for staff time spent on production, or a flat fee for larger projects. We can sometimes offset costs through a partnership or sponsorship. Below are typical services provided, and descriptions of those services. We especially target our services to the nonprofit community. If your project doesn't quite fit any below or if you have questions please contact Jeff Shaw at 530.757.2419 x 14 or email jeff@davismedia.org.

Two to four camera event coverage, switched live, with the program output captured to a hard drive. Minimal post-production includes adding explanatory graphics to the beginning and end of the video and mastering to file format of choice. Additional post-production would include editing the video itself, removing certain portions, adding more graphics, changing the order of the program, or adjusting audio and video levels. DMA can host the video online if you would like.
DMA can provide single camera coverage of events, shot from one perspective. Minimal post-production includes adding explanatory graphics to the beginning and end of the video and mastering to file format of choice. Additional post-production would include editing the video itself, removing certain portions, adding more graphics, changing the order of the program, or adjusting audio and video levels. DMA can host the video online if you would like.
For footage provided to DMA or recorded by us, we will edit using Final Cut Pro. Editing services range greatly depending on project needs. Contact us for more information.
Audio/Video Support for Events
DMA can offer support for events, like operation of public announcement (PA) system, video projection, or other live in person audio / video services, including simple consultation or even event registration. See our Virtual Event Services page for virtual events.
DMA can provide professional audio recording in our studio, as well as professional field audio recording. We also have microphones and portable recording gear that can be setup in most locations for recordings and interviews. Here are two "interview" samples of the sound quality for our mobile recording equipment: Inside Recording and Outside Recording.
Podcasting is a popular way to make digital recordings available for downloading to a computer or mobile device. Like radio, they can be listened to while doing other activities, and have proven to be an effective communication tool. Read about the full suite of audio podcast services DMA can provide.
DMA can offer recordings in our 2-camera TV studio. The studio has HD professional quality cameras, broadcast pix switcher, professional audio consoles and microphones, and advanced lighting systems. For editing needs, see Post Production. (Update: as of January 2021, the TV studio is temporarily offline until further notice).
