What Station Break Productions does

Station Break Productions, operating as a trade name of Trans West Media, Inc., is a video production and digital marketing agency founded in 1983 and headquartered in Syosset, New York, with field offices in Los Angeles and Nevada and additional on-location production capabilities across the U.S. The firm produces commercials, promotional videos, social media content, and digital advertising for small to mid-sized businesses and a historical roster of national brands including Whole Foods, Ford Motor Company, IBM, Hard Rock Cafe, Hertz, Procter & Gamble, Chase Manhattan Bank, and Sephora. Service delivery is built on four revenue streams: project-based video production (Promo Video, Photo-Ad Video, On Location Video, You On Camera), media buying and placement across TV, cable, movie theaters, and digital platforms, online marketing services spanning targeted search ads, retargeting, and competitor geofencing, and recurring social media management. The core technology is human-driven creative production combined with media placement via established buyer relationships; there is no proprietary software product, SDK, or API offering. The go-to-market is consultative and direct: free consultations booked through Calendly, blog content marketing, organic social media presence, and in-person Master Sessions workshops, with no public pricing or disclosed revenue. The legal entity is Trans West Media, Inc., the business remains founder-controlled under CEO Stephen Meyers, and there is no evidence of external venture, private equity, or institutional investment.
