About us
The idea, the logo, the first shoots, the studio build-out — the whole story of how Red Claw Media became a creative production company in Waterville, Maine.
Conception
Red Claw Media began as a simple belief: Maine businesses deserve video that feels like film, not filler. Before there was a studio or a crew, there was a camera, a laptop, and a stubborn standard — every frame has to earn its place.
The name & the logo
The name had to sound like Maine without leaning on cliché. The lobster claw came out of sketch after sketch — red for the accent, black for the frame, one bold mark that reads at any size. It landed on the wall in neon before it landed on a business card.
First productions
Commercials, documentaries, event films, and podcast episodes shot across Central Maine. Every project added gear, technique, and trust — and every client story taught us more about how to shape a scene around a real person instead of a script.
Studio build-out
18 Common Street, Waterville. Brick walls, acoustic treatment, red accent lighting, wood floors, an edit suite, and a podcast stage — built room by room so clients can record, shoot, and cut all in one place.
Completion
Today Red Claw Media is a creative production company with a studio, a crew, and a slate that runs from commercial work to documentary, original podcasts, social creative, and website design. Same standard as day one: make something worth watching.
Red Claw MediaMaine made, built to compete anywhere. Same crew from the first call to the final delivery — which is why the work keeps sounding like you and looking like film.
