Hey y’all, my name is Maddox McDonald — founder of Maddog Media. I’m a proud Marine Corps veteran, and a lifelong fan of everything tech, media, and marketing. That passion? It came from my late father, Local TV legend Mack McDonald. Growing up, I watched him build something special — he was the cofounder of TV-33, now known locally as Beach TV. I’d be by his side on video shoots, holding cables, carrying gear… and let’s be honest — mostly just sitting there eating snacks while he edited hours of footage. He never pushed me to follow in his footsteps — but I saw how creative, how driven, and how innovative he was. That stuck with me. He passed in 2020… and since then, all I’ve wanted to do is make him proud. That’s why I started Maddog Media. We’re a locally run, veteran-operated media business — here to bring quality visuals to life at a price point that makes sense. I’m just getting started in this game, so yeah — I’ll admit I’m an amateur. But you won’t find anyone more committed to serving you with passion, purpose, and quality. And because I’ve seen firsthand the silent battle veterans face — Maddog Media will be donating a portion of every sale to Save22, a nonprofit organization fighting the veteran mental health crisis and preventing suicide in our community. This business is personal. It’s built on passion. It’s built on legacy. And it’s built on the drive to keep serving — just in a new way. So if you’re looking for someone who cares just as much about your vision as you do — I hope you choose Maddog Media. Let’s create something meaningful together.

 

Passion > Experience. Let’s roll.
