NOW AVAILABLE at Hot SEWP Media!
Bring us your old VHS, Hi8, dvd's, WHATEVER you have laying around the house... and have them saved as digital files that will last forever! You KNOW you have those special moments stashed away somewhere in your basement or attic , and they're only going to deteriorate over time. Hot SEWP can take those old formats, and digitize them to a file that you can keep on your computer and share with family and friends. Take this clip, for example. This is me getting beat by the #1 ranked 152 pounder back in 1988. It was on an old vhs tape, rotting away. But NOW... I can re-live this moment over, and over, and over again. THANKS, HOT SEWP! It's not like I was sleeping good at night anyway! Shoot us an email, and let's start saving YOUR precious memories.
(Side note, at least I gave him a bloody nose!)

Kind of a cool shadow cast on the wall! Sometimes awesome things happen on accident. **update** It’s already gone. Lasted for about 5 minutes. Reminds us that awesome things don’t last forever… so take advantage of them while you can.

Yet another reason why I choose to keep my office in Monroe. To all the kids and their creativity… you’re AWESOME!

Happy to announce Hot SEWP Media has brought home TWO Silver Telly Awards this year. One for our short documentary with Rock 'N' Play Camp titled "Why Rock 'N' Play?" and one for a video with Jones Family Racing titled "Evan Jones - The Young Gun." I love eyes on Iowans… and my clients do amazing things.

Call me sentimental, but it chokes me up saying goodbye to where it all started. It was New Year’s Eve, 2019, and I was stuck in THE WORST… well, let’s just say it was awful. I’ll share THAT story later on down the road. Long story short, Lynn reached out and said “what about upstairs?!?” Tyler and Sam came with me to check it out. Bam, Hot SEWP was born. It might sound small and simple, but this space changed my life. (Thanks, Lynn!) Even my 6 year old boys stated “so many memories made up there.” Now, we aren’t moving far, but feels like we’ve come a long way. Time for growth, new memories, and more adventures for Hot SEWP Media and our clients we PROUDLY serve! (Can anyone spot the circle on the floor caused by my chair and countless hours of editing?)

Hot SEWP turns 3... with a new look!

We're proud to announce that on this day, Hot SEWP celebrates THREE YEARS of serving central Iowa businesses! And with time comes change. That's right... new look, new logo, SAME CREATIVE ATTITUDE!

So why the change? Why drop the "Video Kitchen" and replace it with "Media?" Well, I could bore you with empty shop talk rhetoric, or share that story face to face. You know, like in a LOCAL restaurant, shop, or watering hole. After all... WE GET SOCIAL!

Our clients are the BEST, and the reason we continue to grow each and every day. From a piece of gear here, to a new technique there... our commitment to you will not stop.

Moving forward... Hot SEWP Media aims onward and upward. Stay tuned for new location, new & improved website, NEW ADVENTURES! Thank you, EVERYONE!
