Upload Media Group is a community-focused organization that is elevating local voices, empowering local businesses, and connecting communities through content. This mission is achieved by utilizing digital storytelling tools like video and podcasting to tell the stories of Iowa and offering access to these tools to our community in a meaningful and accessible way that elevates both our region and our medium.

Upload Media Group can be divided up into three primary functions:

Upload Media Podcast Studio and Services encompasses everything that we do in the podcasting space, our primary digital medium. Our industry-leading podcast studio in Downtown Cedar Rapids serves as the central hub for area businesses, organizations, professional podcasters, and hobbyists to create their projects, but our experienced and award-winning team is ready to create high-quality audio and video podcasts off-site and remotely as well.

Upload Media Content Productions is the organization’s white label “for-hire” production team creating high-quality videos (corporate, training, film, b-roll, etc.), audio (voiceover, ads, audiobooks and narration, etc.), graphic design (logo and brand designs, marketing materials, merchandise, etc.), photography (headshots, live event photography, portrait, etc.), and more for organizations and professionals that want to connect with audiences in new ways. 

The Iowa Podcast Association is our new way of elevating the voices of Iowa. This membership sub-organization is for podcasters throughout the state of Iowa to be a part of Iowa’s largest database of podcasts and be discovered by new listeners and potential sponsors while also gaining access to workshops, networking, and other developmental opportunities. The Association also oversees hosting and production duties for the Iowa Podcast Awards, Iowa’s largest conference and award show dedicated exclusively to podcasting.
