[ Founder · CEO ]
Steve Marks
Steve started Marks Media in 1986 out of a spare room in his house. He leads the team with the same standard of craft he started with, and is most days outnumbered by the grandkids at home.

About Marks Media: Still
rolling.
[ Who we are ]
We’re a marketing and video studio out of St. Joseph, Missouri. Since 1986 we’ve told 1,700+ stories for 600+ businesses, with a crew small enough to know your name and senior enough that you never get handed off. We show up, we shoot, we ship.
The people
you’ll work with
A hands-on crew that works close and moves quick. The people you meet on day one are the people on set and in the edit.
[ Chief Operating Officer ]
Austin Marks
Austin is the wizard of data, analytics, and all things numbers. Every campaign at Marks Media gets a data-driven, ROI-focused review. When he's not digging through dashboards he's general-managing the studio and producing video work.
[ Chief Finance Officer ]
Channing Marks
Channing is the linchpin of Marks Media: overall account manager, finance lead, and chaos handler. The most challenging and diverse tasks land on her desk, and she clears them with the versatility that keeps clients (and the team) happy.
[ Chief Marketing Officer ]
Kinsey Redmond
Kinsey runs the Kansas City office. BFA in theatre performance from UCM, a wealth of product knowledge, and a creative streak that shows up in every campaign she touches.
[ Chief Experience Officer ]
Tyler Schmidt
Tyler spent over a decade in IT, from help desk to CTO, before joining Marks Media in 2023 to lead the web division. If it lives on the internet and a client needs it to work better, it lands with him.
[ Chief Video Officer ]
Dan Barnes
Dan leads Marks Media's video production team, a group of directors, editors, and producers who turn client visions into broadcast and digital work.
[ For the record ]
Forty years, six hundred clients and seventeen hundred stories. Nice numbers. The work is what we’re proud of.
