My Story

Real stories, told well. That’s what Travis Hawkes Media is built on. We create authentic, story-driven video that captures who you are, what you do, and why it matters to the people you serve. After almost six years building the business in Denver, Travis moved back to New England, and THM is now based in South Portland, Maine, serving Portland, Boston, and clients across the country.

Travis has worked in sales and marketing roles for large corporations and start-up companies since graduating from Champlain College in 2012 with a degree in psychology.

After the company he worked for suddenly went bankrupt in March 2020, Travis realized that his true passion was in videography & visual storytelling, and that this passion could become a career.  After betting on himself and going through the ups and downs of starting a company, Travis established a small agency with a large number of clients across several industries.  Travis Hawkes Media was born!  

Today, Travis has been highlighted in a number of magazines and featured on television nationally.  Combining his love for cinematic visuals, with his passion for storytelling, his agency works closely with their clients to develop their Brand Story Videos, documentaries, short form marketing content, online courses, and more!

He’s done ads & content for brands like Under Armour and helped startup companies build their marketing launches. He’s produced long-form health and wellness series for The Phoenix that have reached hundreds of thousands of incarcerated people and been viewed millions of times. He’s filmed and produced feature length documentaries and mini docs, as well web show series for streaming platforms. He’s worked with top 10 ranked professional athletes to develop their social media content, and helped launch numerous successful online courses. He’s worked with large brands and corporations to develop their content, worked with unique inspiring professionals, and more!

Travis is the owner and founder of Travis Hawkes Media, as well as one of the lead videographers and editors. Travis will work hand in hand with their client or marketing professional throughout the whole process.

Starting with the pre production phase he will work with you to develop all of the plans, storyboard, shotlist, talent, locations, script, crew, and everything else needed.

In the production phase he will bring in his highly talented and experienced crew which depending on the size of the project could just be himself and a director of photography, or up to 7 people including drone operators, audio techs, graphers / grips (lighting), set assistants, professional photographers, and more!

All projects are different in terms of the scope and size, and we work together with you to make sure we’re creating something that’s high quality enough for your needs, and also fits within your budget.

After production, Travis Hawkes Media will also handle the post production phase with talented and experienced editors to create whatever you need; including specialized video editing & storytelling, colorization, animations, sound design, voice over, and whatever else is needed!

Travis offers distinct perspectives and a unique take on the industry through his work experience. Using cinematic video and photography his platforms inspire and help peers, coaches, entrepreneurs, and brands pursue their passions.
