BeCause Digital Media (BDMI) is a small, Texas-based, not-for-profit entity that seeks to provide low/almost “no cost” digital media products and services to Christian faith-based entities, nursing and assisted-living centers, and a few secular non/not-for-profit operations that, in our judgment, promote traditional American and “family values”.
Our focus is primarily on music performance, song-writing, arranging, recording (audio & video); however, we can and do provide technical assistance in the form of technology consulting advice when requested and our capabilities and perspective match the request/need. Please feel free to use the “Contact Us” page!
