This Collaboration with @ChicagoBulls is inspired by the very thing that developed us into the basketball players we once were, and grew us into the men we are today, the concrete playground courts. While in pursuit of one day becoming a Hardwood Hero on an NBA Roster, the playground is where we met some of our very best friends, learned some of our toughest lessons, and built the grit and toughness that carried us through every obstacle in life.
Incorporated into the background of the graphic is a part of the city’s landscape to show what the two young boys represent - putting on for a city that means so much to them and inspiring those that came after them.
The playground made us, molded us, and most importantly showed us… that the dreams of being a Hardwood Hero, weren’t too far away after all.

What started as filming music videos, turned into purpose.
A camera kept me busy.
A camera kept me curious.
A camera made me want to get better every single day just to see how far I could really take this journey.
That passion turned into a career, relationships, partnerships, experiences, and eventually a film inspired by it all.
“Believe In Yourself” out now.

Every film we make, we get better.
This is art…so we treat it like it.
We locked in on telling some of the best Chicago stories,
building with some of the most talented creatives in the city.
All on our own budget.
Believe In Yourself— OUT NOW.

I treated my community like a blank canvas…
and let my Sony a7s be the paint brush.
I didn’t learn this in school.
I learned it outside, in real time.
Piece by piece… it turned into something.
Believe In Yourself Film—OUT NOW
#bytapree #believeinyourself #filmmaking
Believe In Yourself, Chicago.
This for the ones who was told not to chase it.
For the ones who stayed in the crib, putting hours into something… just to stay out the way when it was crackin outside.
Drawing.
Doing hair.
Designing something nobody else sees yet.
Believe in yourself.
April 23rd.
The journey begins — for you.
See y’all soon. #bytapree #chicago
if you were wondering how how a typical day in femdot.’s class went?
the second week, we got a chance to chop it up with the legend @glctheism and we had some of the homies pop in to class to get a glimpse. the ability to learn is just as cool as the ability to teach. and we learned a lot that day.
