Cheeben Media LLC is a creative visualization, content, and strategy studio in Grants Pass, Oregon, founded by Steven 'Cheeben' Buchanan. It helps businesses, properties, and organizations become impossible to ignore through AI-enhanced visualization, video, FAA-licensed drone cinematography, websites, and SEO/GEO strategy.
Cheeben Media is based in Grants Pass, Oregon and serves all of Southern Oregon — including Medford, Ashland, the Rogue Valley, and Josephine and Jackson counties. Larger development and hospitality projects are taken on across Oregon.
It's photorealistic imagery of a property, development, or renovation before it exists — built on real drone photography of the actual site, with the proposed future layered in at accurate scale and light. Developers and owners use it for investor pitches, permitting, community presentations, and pre-sales.
GEO stands for generative engine optimization: showing up in AI-generated answers from tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google's AI Overviews. A GEO audit checks whether those systems can find, understand, and confidently recommend your business — and delivers a prioritized roadmap of what to fix.
Yes. Steven holds an FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate, the federal requirement for all commercial drone operations in the United States.
Projects are quoted individually because a social content package, a broadcast commercial, and a development visualization are very different animals. Email a description of what you need and you'll get a straight number and honest advice about whether it's worth it — even if the honest answer is 'not yet.'
Yes — listing photography, walkthrough video, drone media, and virtual tours, with recurring packages for agents who want every listing handled consistently. Agents also use Cheeben's AI visualization to market land and development listings by their potential.
Yes. Content, property media, SEO/GEO work, and strategy support can all be shaped as monthly engagements. Most start as a single project first, so both sides know it's a fit.
That's often the most rewarding kind of project. The usual path: clarify the message, build a website with SEO/GEO structure baked in, capture real photo and video, then grow visibility from a solid foundation.
Steven Buchanan — known locally as Cheeben since childhood. He's a filmmaker, FAA-licensed drone pilot, and the working Marketing Director for a Southern Oregon business, which means every recommendation comes from someone accountable for real marketing results every day.
It's Steven's childhood nickname, and half of Grants Pass still calls him that. The name is a promise: this is a personal, local business built on real relationships — not a faceless agency.
