The Studio

The Florida Keys' First Podcast & Video Production Studio

Marathon, FL — Opens June 2026. Podcast retainers, production days, headshots & brand video.

Until we built this, there was no real production studio between Key Largo and Key West.

Your options were a three-hour drive north, a spare-bedroom setup that sounded like a spare bedroom, or a freelancer with a shotgun mic and a prayer.

We built this because the Keys deserved better than that.

The studio handles podcasts up to four people on mic, longform video, talking-head content, executive headshots, and product photography. Every booking includes a producer who runs the shoot. We don’t dry-hire. You show up, we run it, you walk out with something usable.

Look around.

Studio Zones

204 sq ft of dedicated production space — purpose-built for video, podcast, and brand content. Acoustically treated, climate-controlled, and located in the heart of Marathon, FL. Two separate shooting zones. One seamless workflow.

What we shoot here.

Podcasts

The flagship use case. Up to 4 guests on mic. Video-first, broadcast audio. Think: professional host desk, acoustic panel walls, soft studio lighting — the kind of setup you see on national shows. Not a bedroom corner.

Longform Video & Talking Head

Executive thought leadership, branded video series, YouTube longform, single-subject interviews. Teleprompter-ready. Cinematic backdrop options. Professional camera and lighting rig — not just a webcam.

Brand & Business Video

Founder stories, tutorials, company culture, leadership profiles. Shot, lit, and edited to match your brand. We handle concept-to-delivery so your team stays focused on running the business.

Professional Headshots

Executive portraits, agent branding sessions, team headshots. Studio-quality lighting, multiple looks in one session. The kind of headshot that makes your LinkedIn profile look like a media company.

Product Photography

E-commerce, brand catalogs, marketing imagery. Controlled studio lighting, clean backgrounds, or lifestyle setups — done in one session instead of hunting for locations.

Real Estate Social Media Content

Short-form video, Reels, talking head clips for social. Batch your content in one day. Walk out with 30 days of material — filmed, lit, and ready to edit.

Want a podcast that actually runs?

We built a full done-for-you podcast production system around this studio. The Show: one recording day a month, four episodes batched, edited, distributed, and clipped. You don’t manage anything.

The Show starts at $4,500/month. Founding Member spots open now — locked pricing for 12 months and a Show Launch Package included.

Who built this.

Keys Media Studio has produced media supporting $200M+ in Florida Keys real estate transactions. We’ve built brands for boutique resorts, helped a Marathon agent get named Best Realtor in 2025, and ran the content system behind 2.4 million video views and a 5.2% engagement rate on our own channels before we sold it as a service.

Syd Meyer leads brand strategy and creative direction. Chris Gleadall runs production and lives on the water year-round.

We built the studio because we wanted somewhere to make our own work better. Then we realized the Keys didn’t have one for anybody else either.

Common questions.

No. Everything is provided — cameras, microphones, lights, teleprompter, and acoustic treatment. Just bring yourself and your content. We handle the technical side.

A full Production Day includes studio access, a dedicated producer, camera operator, and basic editing. You define what you want to film — interviews, podcast episodes, brand content — and we execute it. Most clients walk out with 2–4 weeks of content from a single day.

Both options are available. We offer single Production Days for one-time projects and monthly podcast retainers for ongoing content. Most ongoing creators benefit from a retainer since it locks in your rate and production slot.

Marathon, Florida — roughly the geographic center of the Florida Keys. About 1.5 hours from Miami, accessible from both ends of the Keys without having to drive to Key West or Miami for a proper studio.

Up to 4 guests on-mic for podcast recordings. For video and headshot sessions, we can accommodate talent, clients, and production crew — typically up to 6–8 people in the space comfortably.

The Studio is built for any kind of professional video or audio content. Podcast shows, YouTube channels, brand videos, headshots, product photography, real estate marketing content, and executive interviews are all common uses. If it involves a camera, a mic, or a light, we can handle it.
