Mid America Productions

Operating out of Salina, Kansas since 1983, Mid America Productions builds its business around video and multimedia production for organizations that need live streaming, event coverage, and finished films rather than raw footage. Clients span manufacturing and agriculture (AGCO, Bergkamp, Inc.), food production (Schwan Food Company), higher education (Kansas Wesleyan), utilities (Rolling Hills Electric Co-op), and national broadcast (C-SPAN), reflecting a client base that runs from regional to national scale. Karl Sneath leads production and creative direction for the shop.

Work covers event production, live-action shoots, editing and post-production, brand films, explainer videos, and product demos, with a stated focus on making sure meetings and events run smoothly on the day of taping. That range shows up in projects like the Eagle Communications and Junction City Economic Development videos, a recruitment piece for Carrico Implement, and the Cedar Ridge Development project, each requiring a different mix of on-location shooting and post edit.

Other jobs point to the range of formats the company handles: a home-game video project for Pop-A-Shot, documentation of a 1914 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost, screen and projection setup for the Chamber of Commerce Banquet at the Stiefel Theatre, open-air concert production for Symphony at Sunset, and coverage of a statewide religious gathering. Together these projects show a company as comfortable setting up live AV for a theater event or outdoor concert as it is editing a corporate recruitment video or a nonprofit piece, with four decades of production history behind the work.
