About Spang
Spang TV makes moving images. Commercials, documentaries, web content—you get the picture. We're based in Richmond, Virginia, with roots in LA. And we love the unexpected places our work takes us—a beach, on the road with musicians, midtown Manhattan, a traveling carnival, a Hollywood backlot or the stage where Johnny Cash played to his final crowd. You just never know. We like that.

Melanie Cox
Executive Producer
It all started one day at the fair. A director asked Melanie to fill in for a live commentator. An emergency understudy became a protege and, 25 years later, production has been her sole vocation.
After a few years in educational television and a decade at another production company, she founded Spang in 2002. That masters degree – half media and half MBA – really paid off.
She wants nothing more than to do good work for good people and have fun doing it. -
Jordan Rodericks
Director // Senior Producer
Jordan makes pictures that move and never really stops working. A classically trained documentary filmmaker, forced to acknowledge his skill set as a producer, Jordan won a Capital Emmy Award even before graduating from university.
In 2017 Jordan took the reigns as a director and boy-howdy was it a natural fit. While he'll gladly produce anything that comes his way. He's keeping his eyes on the creative prize and we're glad for that -- and you will be too! -
Erin Surber
Producer
After graduating from Clemson in 2009 with a BS in Food Science, she moved to Richmond and promptly did zilch with that degree. When she's not on set, you might find her hiking in the Blue Ridge or suspended in a hammock near a tent.
She loves a good wine, a good dark chocolate and her husband Richard – a guy so impossibly nice you'd swear he's fictional. -
Maggie Melton
Post Producer
If you've turned on a television, you've seen Maggie's work. It's reality she's based in and that's good for your project, because we're not working in fantasy -- unless you need that, because she has someone to help with that too.
Graphics, animations, edits, and color, she keeps it all online and on time. And in the meantime, ask her about Shark Week.
