The Secret Squirrel Society Entertainment Group, Inc. · Government & public sector

Media production and media training from a service-disabled veteran owned company.

A production company that already makes the media government buyers procure: corporate and organisational video, training and instructional content, documentation and event coverage, photography, print and signage, and on-camera media training.

The company was founded by a retired U.S. Navy Combat Cameraman — ten years shooting in the field, on deadline, with no second take, and before that two years in a Navy public affairs office running media training events for Navy, Marine Corps and Army officers. Both sides of the lens, and both sides of the podium. Access windows, escorts, review chains and shooting around an operation rather than through it are the conditions this company learned the work in, not conditions it has to be briefed on.

Core competencies

Each of these is work this company already performs for commercial clients, described in the terms a statement of work uses rather than the terms an agency brochure uses.

Corporate & Organisational Video

Command and mission briefs, internal communication, recruitment, safety and public information video. Written, shot, cut, captioned and delivered to the specification the publishing system actually accepts.

Training & Instructional Media

Procedural and instructional video, courseware media, and the cutdowns a training programme needs for classroom, mobile and LMS delivery.

Media & Spokesperson Training

On-camera technique, interview preparation, message discipline and hostile-question handling, delivered on site. Our founder ran media training events for Navy, Marine Corps and Army officers across two years in a U.S. Navy public affairs office; the company delivers that same training commercially.

Documentation & Event Coverage

Ceremonies, exercises, openings and site documentation. Field-run, self-sufficient, and able to work to an access window rather than a production schedule.

Photography

Documentation, portrait, product and event photography, delivered with captions and metadata rather than as a folder of unlabelled frames.

Design, Print & Signage

Print and environmental graphics designed in house and produced as a finished piece — briefing graphics, displays, signage and outreach collateral.

Media training, and where it comes from

The company delivers on-camera and spokesperson training commercially. The grounding for it is the founder’s own service: two years running media training events for officers of the services below, out of a U.S. Navy public affairs office, before ten years as a Combat Cameraman.

These NAICS codes describe the work the company performs. They are stated as a description of scope, not as a representation of any registration record.

One contract. The content, the training and the print.

A media production company that grew a marketing and advertising practice around its own cameras. Everything below is run by the same team, which is why the content, the campaign it belongs to and the night it lands on do not have to be scheduled across four companies.

How we work

Three things that decide whether a media job inside a government organisation lands, and how this company handles each one.

Field habits, not studio habits

A crew that has worked around operations knows what not to point a lens at, what a review chain needs before a frame is published, and how to finish inside an access window that will not be extended.

One contract, the whole deliverable

The video, the photography, the graphics, the printed material and the signage are produced by the same company. A programme that would otherwise be split across a production vendor, a design vendor and a print vendor is one point of accountability.

Delivered in the format that publishes

Masters, cutdowns, captions and metadata prepared for the system the material actually has to go into — a public site, an internal portal, a learning system or a display — rather than handed over as a folder for somebody else to convert.
