Video Production + Photography + Strategic Content
Mack Media Group has built a reputation as a video production and digital marketing company serving businesses across New York City and beyond. Their services include commercial video production, corporate videos, animation, and marketing-focused content designed to help brands increase visibility and engagement.
However, many modern businesses require more than standalone video production. Today’s companies need consistent visual branding across multiple platforms, including photography, social media content, internal communications, and long-term marketing campaigns.
Bernardson provides a comprehensive alternative by combining cinematic video production, commercial photography, and strategic content planning under one roof. We help organizations create cohesive visual ecosystems that support marketing, recruitment, training, and brand growth across all channels. Our approach ensures every piece of content contributes to measurable business outcomes and long-term brand consistency.
What Makes Bernardson Different
Video + Photography Integration
We combine cinema-grade video production with professional photography. Get brand films, product demos, training videos, social media content, corporate headshots, and event coverage from one team with seamless visual consistency across all deliverables.
Multi-Platform Content Strategy
We create platform-native content from day one. Every production includes vertical video for Instagram/TikTok, square for feeds, widescreen for YouTube, and optimized photography for each channel. Engagement rates typically increase 40-60% compared to repurposed content.
Trilingual Production Capabilities
Native production in English, French, and Spanish with offices across Montreal, Toronto, and Puerto Rico. Culturally authentic content with native-speaking crews and talent, not translations. Perfect for reaching Quebec, Canadian, and international markets.
Strategic ROI Approach
We start with business objectives, not cameras. Our process includes audience analysis, platform strategy, and performance tracking. Content becomes a measurable growth driver with clear ROI reporting and ongoing optimization.
Comprehensive Training & Educational Content
Beyond marketing content, we specialize in employee onboarding, e-learning modules, compliance training, and LMS-compatible educational videos. Professional instructional design that traditional photography studios don’t offer.
Partnership Model with Ongoing Support

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Bernardson different from Mack Media Group?
Both companies provide professional video production services in New York City. Mack Media Group focuses on video production and digital marketing support, while Bernardson offers a broader creative solution that includes photography, multi-platform content, and strategic planning. Businesses that need consistent visual branding across multiple channels often choose Bernardson for its integrated approach.
Does Bernardson provide the same types of videos as Mack Media Group?
Yes. Bernardson produces commercial videos, corporate videos, promotional content, and event coverage similar to Mack Media Group. However, we also integrate photography and multi-platform optimization into our productions, ensuring clients receive a complete set of visual assets from a single project.
What makes Bernardson's multi-platform approach different?
Traditional studios shoot content in one format and expect you to adapt it for different platforms. This leads to cropped Instagram posts, awkward TikTok videos, and underperforming content.
We plan multi-platform optimization from the start. We shoot vertical (9:16 for Instagram Stories/TikTok), square (1:1 for Instagram feed), and widescreen (16:9 for YouTube/LinkedIn) simultaneously during production. Each platform gets content designed specifically for its format and audience behavior, typically increasing engagement rates 40-60% compared to repurposed content.
