RaffertyWeiss Media is a Washington, D.C.-based video production company with over 25 years of experience producing video content for federal, state, and local government agencies. From broadcast public service announcements to Section 508-compliant training videos and eLearning modules, we handle the full scope of government video production - concept through delivery.

We are registered in SAM.gov, hold a GSA Schedule contract (No. 47QRAA20D0017), and have an established track record with agencies including the Department of Defense, Department of Justice, Department of Labor, Department of Homeland Security, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institutes of Health.

What We Produce for Government Agencies

Government communication demands a different standard than commercial video. Every project must meet legal, accessibility, and procurement requirements while still connecting with a diverse public audience. Our team is built for exactly that.

Training Videos

We produce clear, engaging training content for onboarding, compliance, safety, and professional development. Our instructional approach is designed to maximize retention and meet the needs of adult learners across all formats - from short-form modules to full-length courses.

PSAs and Outreach Campaigns

We produce broadcast-quality PSAs for national and regional distribution, in both English and Spanish. Our outreach campaigns are built around clear messaging, targeted audiences, and measurable impact. We have produced campaigns for ODEP, DHS, CDC, and other major federal agencies.

eLearning and Interactive Modules

We design and author eLearning content for a wide range of LMS platforms. Whether the project calls for animation, on-camera hosts, subject matter expert interviews, dramatic role-playing scenarios, or knowledge checks, we bring full instructional design capability in-house.

Informational and Explainer Videos

We translate complex policy, program, and public health information into clear, accessible video content that citizens and stakeholders can actually understand and act on.

Event Coverage and Documentary Production

From congressional hearings to agency milestones, we capture and produce documentary-style video content that builds institutional record and public trust.

Government Video Production Case Studies

RaffertyWeiss Media partnered with the Department of Labor’s Office of Disability Employment Policy to produce a broadcast media public service outreach campaign directed at owners of small- and medium-sized businesses. The campaign, which includes broadcast PSAs in both English and Spanish, highlights the essential role that people with disabilities play in workplaces across America and the real value that they add to businesses’ bottom lines.

Aiming to dispel the myth that people with disabilities are unable to meaningfully participate in the U.S. workforce, the campaign stars real American workers with physical and intellectual disabilities helping to make the case for the unique and meaningful contributions that the 50 million people currently living with disabilities can contribute to workplaces of all shapes and sizes.

When you told us you’d lined up your “A Team” for our Campaign for Disability Employment PSA, we had no idea exactly how outstanding you’d be. On behalf of Concepts, Inc. and our CDE client, we’d like to thank you for an exceptional series of shoots this week. We were blown away by the efficiency and quality of your tightly-run ship and by the sheer artistry of your craft. Thanks to all of you, there is no doubt that the finished product will be superb. It’s clear that you are absolute professionals — but also great people who love their work and working together. Thanks for making this week such a pleasure.”

What types of government agencies does RaffertyWeiss Media work with?

We work with federal, state, and local government agencies, as well as government contractors and subcontractors. Our federal agency experience includes the Department of Defense, Department of Justice, Department of Labor, Department of Homeland Security, and multiple agencies within the Department of Health and Human Services.

Does RaffertyWeiss Media have a GSA Schedule?

Yes. RaffertyWeiss Media holds GSA Schedule No. 47QRAA20D0017 under categories 512110 and OLM. We are registered in SAM.gov (CAGE Code: 3T8S8, UEI: L9LHKWHW8H55) and classified as a small business. Our full GSA price catalogue is available for download.

What NAICS codes does RaffertyWeiss Media hold?

Can RaffertyWeiss Media produce Section 508-compliant video?

Yes. Section 508 compliance - including closed captioning, audio description, and accessible formatting - is a standard part of our government production workflow, not an add-on.

Does RaffertyWeiss Media produce videos in languages other than English?

Yes. We regularly produce bilingual content in English and Spanish for federal outreach campaigns and can accommodate additional language requirements.

What is the typical process for a government video project?

We begin with a discovery and briefing phase to align on agency goals, target audience, compliance requirements, and timeline. From there we move through scripting and storyboarding, production, post-production, and a structured review and approval process. We are experienced working within government review cycles and multi-stakeholder approval chains.

How does government video production differ from commercial video production?

Government video production requires strict attention to compliance, including Section 508 accessibility standards, federal plain language guidelines, and procurement regulations. Projects often involve multi-tiered approval processes, politically sensitive messaging, and the need to reach a broad and diverse public audience - not just a targeted customer segment. These requirements demand a production partner with specific public sector experience.
