Late EOY appreciation post for the @axiom_media_group fam. Hasn’t even been a year yet but it feels like home. It’s been wild to see just how much we’ve done in such a short amount of time with such a small team. And we’re not stopping - only up from here 😤 1-4. Directing my first TV commercial 🤯 5-6. We shot a 1000+ person party on an aircraft carrier at this conference. Videography takes you places haha 7. Video teeeaaam 🫡 8. Learned so much more on how to work with clients/talent 9. Pre pro, pre pro, pre pro 10. That’s me! 11-12. A week long studio visitor observed that we like to laugh a lot. Couldn’t ask for a better team/environment to work with/in 😌

Catch up Freelance BTS dump Just a snippet of all the opportunities this year but Incredibly blessed by the ppl that gave them to me. Y’all know who you are - sincerely appreciate every single one of you 🙏 I would literally not be where I am now without yall. Here’s to making more mistakes and growing/learning from them this year 🫡

I’m gonna be honest - this was probably one of the hardest productions I’ve done this whole year, yet it felt like one of the best. Major imposter syndrome, I made mistakes that led to some of the bigger problems on set, and I swear I got some more white hairs from stress (just look at my face in some of these BTS photos lmao 🫠). The only reason we got through it and made what we did was this group of amazing ppl. Every single person sacrificed and poured out their heart and soul - and really that’s the only way a project like this gets pulled off. During debrief we chatted about how even though some of us have experienced getting on dream sets and working with dream collaborators, it’s passion projects like these with the ones you come up with that are the special ones. Can’t get any better than a freaking bingo board of inside jokes by the end of production lol. Ty Adobe for giving us the opportunity, ty directors and ADs for taking a chance on me, ty other dept heads for investing in my mistakes by showing me how to get better, ty all other cast/crew for putting up with my mistakes - appreciate every single one of you. It was damn hard, but it was TON of fun and taught me so much. Now off to rest, recharge, and do it all over again soon 😎
