Creative Digital Media Studio
We tell great stories.
Castle Conrad Media is a creative studio helping businesses, organizations and creators tell their stories through thoughtful design, compelling media and smart digital experiences.
From a brand identity or website to a video, podcast or book, we approach every project with the same goal: understand what you're trying to say, then find the best way to say it.
We're based in Georgia and work with clients near and far.
Creative work should feel like you.
There are more tools than ever for creating content quickly. But faster doesn't always mean better—and looking polished isn't the same as being memorable.
We believe good creative work begins with listening.
Before we design, edit or build, we want to understand your business, your audience and what you're trying to accomplish. Then we create something specifically for you—not something that could just as easily belong to the business down the street.
Your story. Your voice. Your brand.
A small studio by design.
Castle Conrad Media is led by Shari and Michael Baker, a husband-and-wife creative team with complementary skills across digital and traditional media.
Shari works across graphic design, branding, web design and development, book design, creative strategy and analytics--bringing the visual, technical and strategic pieces of a project together.
Michael specializes in video and audio editing, podcast production, video direction and illustration, with a storyteller's eye for pacing, imagery and sound.
Together, we can take a project from an early idea through finished creative without passing it through layers of account managers, departments or outsourced production.
And because we're a small studio, we intentionally take on a limited number of projects. It gives us the time to understand the work and give each client the attention it deserves.
More than one way to tell a story.
Some stories belong on a screen. Others belong on a page. Some need to be heard. And sometimes the story is hiding in the data.
Our work includes video editing and production, web design and development, branding and graphic design, book design, podcast and audio editing, and analytics and strategy.
Those disciplines often overlap--and that's one of the advantages of working with a multidisciplinary studio. A website may lead to a new brand identity. A podcast may need promotional graphics. A new website may reveal an opportunity for better analytics. A business may come to us for one thing and discover that several pieces of its story need to work together.
We look at the whole picture.
Good work starts with a conversation.
You don't need to arrive with a creative brief, know the right terminology or have every detail figured out.
Tell us what you're working on, what's not working, or what you'd like to do next.
We'll help you figure out what makes sense.
Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can't remember who we are or why we're here.
