Meet the Owner
My name is Tom Wiedmeyer. I am the owner, president, and founder of TPW Productions LLC. I’ve been a producer/director in the film and television industry for well over 20 years. I’m graduate of UW-Oshkosh with a degree in communications Radio/TV/Film. I started my career 1997 as an independent contractor, then established TPW Productions LLC in early 2002. Throughout the years I have produced well over 500 television commercials, numerous long-form videos and worked on few independent and feature films.
Oddly enough, outside of my first love, which is film and television production, my second passion is the gaming industry. When I’m not in front of a slot machine, playing blackjack or in an intense game of poker, I like to study the world of gaming. I am fascinated by what makes a person want to gamble. What makes a gamer “tick”? Being a gambler myself, I do ask myself these questions rather often. It’s hard to say what truly does attract someone to a gaming property, but following the current trends do help. Especially with the younger crowds. I found attending the yearly Global Gaming Expo (G2E) and National Indian Gaming Association (NIGA) conferences are invaluable resources for this type of information. Especially when it comes to targeting your audience in gaming-related activities.
