Our Story

The story of Marston McCoy Media revolves around my family: my incredible and talented wife, Elizabeth; myself, Peter; and my son… Marston McCoy Sullivan (pictured below, in his “UP” themed nursery, lovingly hand-painted by Elizabeth). You’ll see quite a bit of Elizabeth (and even Marston McCoy before he was born!) when you stop by the “Media Examples” page. Sharing our family’s stories inspired the idea of helping others tell theirs.

I come equipped with decades of education and experience in storytelling. Having studied theatre in college and grad school, I moved to Illinois after receiving an internship at a small storefront theater. From there, I landed at the Marriott Theatre in 2004, where I am now the Associate Artistic Director and have created or managed almost all online content including ads, interviews, commercials, social media, montages, quote ads, and much more. 

My tenure at Marriott Theatre provided an opportunity to create an online narrative including the genesis of its social media from the ground up to where it is now (over 21,000 followers on Facebook) and the unexplored element of email marketing. By developing a digital media marketing pipeline, the list grew from 0 to 26,000. These undertakings necessitate a strong understanding of how different forms of media and programs like Final Cut Pro, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Adobe, and Motion can be leveraged to build an enticing story.

When you combine the elements of digital media with my prior education and storytelling experience, you get someone that knows how to tell a digital story in a dynamic, engaging, and revenue-generating (if needed) way. You get someone savvy in steering an interview to get what an audience wants (every business has an audience.) You get campaigns and content to capture the interest of viewers, connect your story with customers, and generate interest and sales. You get someone that can create a bright, exciting real estate video that’s sure to help sell your property. 

From simple video or Photoshop editing, to a complete on-site film + edit package, Marston McCoy Media can create, tell, and sell your story. Take a look at “What We Do,” or head to “Media Examples” to get an idea of the possibilities. 

Thanks for stopping by, and we look forward to telling your story!
