Your Construction Media Partner
Our mission is to showcase the incredible work our clients are doing on jobsites across the country in a way that allows them to stay focused on successfully delivering their projects. To accomplish this, we bring to the table an expert team of professionals with extensive construction experience and a passion for customer service.
Below is a letter from our Founder. We hope it shines a light on why we do what we do, and what drives us to be the best we can be every day.
Our Story
THE BEGINNING
This all started years ago when I worked for a large general contractor. I was lucky enough to build some amazing projects with incredible people, but only those working on the jobsite knew how much time, energy, effort, planning, and stress went into all we do.I wanted to showcase the projects in a way that made others want to show them off too.
When I started flying a drone and made “progress videos” to supplement the written monthly progress reports, something incredible happened. Everyone from owners, to the team, to the subcontractors, to the end users loved the videos and started sharing them with their colleagues, friends, and even families.
It turns out, there were a lot of people who took quite a bit of pride in the work they did.
THE REALIZATION
Watching the response of the people I worked with every day made me ask the question: “How can I help support these men and women, and not only showcase their incredible work, but also make their lives easier?”This question has driven every decision I’ve made since launching Gilman Construction Media in 2017. I know that you have enough on your plate with the construction of these complex projects because I did when I was in your position.
This is why it became our company’s mission to handle everything when it comes to documenting and showcasing your work. From installing construction cameras to getting an FAA waiver to fly a drone, we’ll take care of it.
THE GROWTH
The other part of this adventure that excites me is that I get to run a small business. The entrepreneurial bug bit me a long time ago, and Gilman Construction Media started as the smallest of small businesses.I was the only employee for a long time, responsible for everything from product development and strategic planning, to doing the accounting and cleaning the office. Having the opportunity to grow our team has been a dream made possible because of the incredible work our clients are doing.
OUR WHY
Clients are the most important element of all of this. Our incredible clients have allowed my team to learn and grow from the very start. We have earned trust from our clients, and we are incredibly grateful for each and every one of them.Having spent more than a decade in the construction industry, three guiding principles stand out, and they’ve become the backbone of how Gilman Construction Media operates...
- Treat people how you want to be treated.
- Do the right thing.
- Get better every single day.
Our Approach
Above all else, the work we do with our clients is a true partnership,
keeping them connected to everything happening with their projects.
WE ARE...
Our partnership approach has created client value above and beyond just providing a video creation service. By being flexible and taking care of our clients from start to finish, we make it easy for them to get things done.
