P.S. I took this
ABOUT
I have over a decade of experience in all aspects of video production, and I have successfully grown social media accounts with the content I have made.
In that time I have managed and executed projects up to $100,000 in budget.
Some of the companies I’ve done this for you may have heard of, like Pearson Education or The Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation.
Beyond that, I started a caused based project called Sober Stories. It explores what people have gained in their journies of Recovery. This is done by interviewing people in recovery, and creating and sharing memes that hopefully help us understand ourselves a bit better.
The project grew from zero to 14,500 followers in 16 months. It has received millions of views and individual engagements.
I have learned a lot about how not only to grow social media accounts from that project but how to make content that people will pay attention to in low attention span environments like Instagram.
Because just like I sold textbooks for Pearson Education. I had to figure out how to sell sobriety with Sober Stories.

Recommendations

Jeremiah Gardner
Director, Communications & Public Affairs
- Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation
I profiled Travis and his Sober Stories project in an article for Hazelden Betty Ford’s advocates and ambassadors because I appreciated that he captured stories at a level that could both nourish folks living recovery from addiction and attract those who might benefit from recovery, while also demonstrating for the public that recovery is possible and real.
Later, I hired Travis to edit together a video, utilizing source footage from our content library, highlighting the power of family recovery through the voices of people with lived experience. He did a fantastic, timely job — curating the perfect clips and assembling a wonderful story arc.
He brings artistry, technical skills and heart to his work, and I am happy to recommend him.
Rob Contreras
Owner - Makes Media
During the last year, my team has hired Travis to work on two important projects where his expertise was an invaluable contribution toward outcomes that aligned with our goals.
He is an artful storyteller, with an unwavering commitment to deliver work that inspires the audience toward action. I’m particularly impressed with his ability to take our strategies and make them more complete and effective.
He is highly collaborative and responsive during all phases of the project and we trust his opinions and direction to the fullest degree.
Michelle Bouchard
Chief Executive Officer at Bouchard & Associates
He has not only executed technical projects, such as creating a website and branding for a non-profit I founded, he executed several fantastic artistic projects for me and my partner (a short film highlighting our architectural project, a documentary film treatment and videos and editing for several events.
Travis has the ability to quickly grasp the essence of a subject or mission as well as the ability to beautifully communicate it in a moving and succinct fashion. His work is compelling and powerful. I have had the privilege during my career of working with some of the best folks in media. I consider Travis amongst them.
Travis is also a pleasure to work with as an employee, independent contractor and human being. He has a keen sense of humor. He works tirelessly to ensure the project is completed and the best it can be.
Alyssa May Hart
Director of Strategic Relationships - OTHR Agency
Travis has incredible attention to detail and will elevate whatever project he’s a part of — it’s one of the gifts of working with someone who’s a filmmaker/storyteller vs. “content person”. He works always with the overarching “why” and your goals visible and clearly communicated.
Travis did some incredible editing for my small business in 2021 that really helped us elevate our content and brand and increased our audience significantly over the span of a few months.
I highly recommend hiring him!

Why do I bring this up?
Travis Meadors has been an inspiration to me through his journey of discovery. He has taken his gift of storytelling and leveraged it to not only create positive influence in the world but also with the intention of inspiring others to take action and find their freedom.
I have personally interviewed and hired hundreds of people for my companies over the years, I realized that a resume or on paper experience often carried little value when it came to the actual work. But the number one thing I found as the best predictor of future success was (his/her)STORY. A persons journey of perseverance, dedication, devotion, determination and willingness to pursue greatness through the most difficult times often has a direct correlation to success in the workplace.
Travis is one of those people. The employee, partner, friend, son, and leader who doesn’t give up.
When a persons motivation comes from somewhere deep inside their core they are just different, they produce results that no one could imagine when given the opportunity to do so.
I truly recommend Travis as an excellent human being who embodies the perfect balance of grace and grit.
Lauren Seigel
Senior Customer Success Manager
- HiredScore
I highly recommend Travis, a brilliant videographer and producer who has impressed me with their
exceptional skills and work ethic. Their attention to detail and creativity in capturing footage is truly
remarkable, and they consistently produce
high-quality videos that exceed expectations. Their ability to understand and interpret a client’s vision, coupled with their technical expertise, make them a valuable asset to any project. I have no doubt that Travis will continue to excel in their field and deliver
outstanding results for any client fortunate enough to work with them. Hire Travis! You won’t regret it!
Lucius Patenaude
Cinematographer
Having worked with Travis on several sets and hired by him to DP one of his productions, it is easy to write a recommendation for Travis.
Travis is dedicated to his craft. He relentlessly pursues authentic storytelling. Travis’ personality is confident and playful, but as soon as he sits down to interview a subject it’s apparent how empathetic, vulnerable, and insightful he is as an individual. This paired with his mastery of video production results in amazing work. As a cinematographer, editor, and producer, Travis is a strong asset. He makes things happen.

Founder Scribner Systems
If you are ever lucky enough to work on a project with Travis, you will see and know exactly what I mean.
