Veritas Media

What Veritas Media does

Veritas Media (legal entity: Veritas by Barron, LLC) is a regional video production services firm headquartered in Ferndale, Washington, serving businesses, nonprofits, and educational institutions primarily across Whatcom and Skagit Counties. Founded in 2011 by Josh Burdick, the company provides end-to-end custom video production across four functional categories: Sales & Marketing (brand videos, testimonials, product launches), Training (process and safety videos for industrial clients), HR & Onboarding (recruitment and culture videos), and Events (multi-camera live event coverage and virtual fundraising galas). The 4-step engagement flow is Discovery Call (booked via HubSpot), quote, production, and delivery, with pricing that ranges from $3K-$5K for simple training videos to $15K-$50K+ for complex productions.

The core technology stack centers on an in-house studio ('Studio V') equipped with Sony camera systems, 4K capture, professional lighting, boom-mic audio isolation, teleprompter, and the OffShoot verified data transfer workflow, with post-production delivered within 24 hours. Layered on top of the core services are Studio V 'Seamless Capture' (a self-serve/PLG turnkey studio rental product launched November 2023 and bookable via bookstudiov.as.me), and three owned-media properties: 'Bellingham Tonight' (community conversation show, 2019), 'Bellingham Now' (COVID-era virtual interview series, 2020), and 'The Creative Brief' (episodic video podcast launched February 2022). The company also coordinates remote international productions (e.g., Faithlife Logos 10 launch across Germany, Mexico, Taiwan, Brazil).

The business model is predominantly project-based professional services with quote-based pricing, supplemented by usage-based Studio V rentals and managed-services-style live event production. Revenue is generated from a diverse mix of regional SMBs, marquee enterprise clients (Shell, Samson Rope, Superfeet, Bellingham Cold Storage, Barron Heating, Cascade Natural Gas), nonprofits (Lydia Place, Lighthouse Mission, Whatcom Family Farmers, SPARK Museum), and educational institutions (WWU Foundation, Bellingham Technical College). The core team of ~8 operates with a vetted freelance network for project scale-out. Distribution is sales-led via HubSpot-scheduled discovery calls, with content-led and community-driven motions (The Creative Brief, Bellingham Tonight, chamber involvement) supporting inbound.

Core offering

Veritas Media is a full-service video production company that produces custom end-to-end video content for businesses and nonprofits, covering brand videos, sales and marketing videos, training and process/safety videos, HR and onboarding/recruitment videos, and event videos (including live-streamed and virtual events). The company operates Studio V, a turnkey "Seamless Capture" in-house studio rental offering where clients can book a fully prepped 4K studio environment with producer support for self-directed shoots, and delivers footage via verified data transfer typically within 24 hours.

Product overview

Veritas Media operates as a single unified video production services company (Veritas by Barron, LLC), with its core offering being custom end-to-end video production for businesses and nonprofits across sales/marketing, training, HR/onboarding, and event categories. Layered on top of this core service are distinct named offerings: Studio V ("Seamless Capture") as a self-service turnkey studio rental add-on; the owned community media properties Bellingham Tonight (live community conversation show, founded 2019) and Bellingham Now (COVID-era short-run interview series); and The Creative Brief, a hosted episodic video series/podcast. Together these products form a portfolio where custom production services are the central offering and Studio V, Bellingham Tonight, Bellingham Now, and The Creative Brief function as either adjacent rental/experience modules or owned-media sub-brands extending Veritas Media's reach into the Whatcom and Skagit County community.
