My 2019 Director’s Reel 🎬
Forever grateful to the amazing artist and crew I got to work with last year. Its an amazing feeling to be able to do what I love for a living 🖤
Just wanted to show the amount of chaos that goes behind the scenes when shooting a one take live performance. My fiancé @jacquieleemusic and I have been trying to challenge ourselves and create something raw and unfiltered with our art, something unpolished and real. I just want to thank everyone involved in helping us make this. We had no money to create this and everyone involved came out for the love. My fiancé and I have had a lot of ups and downs in our career but we are starting to finally feel fulfilled with the art we are creating. To everyone involved I am forever grateful. To @jakobowensstudios thank you for letting us use your amazing set. And to anyone watching, thank you for your support and allowing a couple of broke artists to show you something we are proud to put out into the world ❤️

We were robbed… 😔
New work - “The Robbery” part 1 of a new 3 part social short film series for @prismlensfx 🎥
These “ads” have quickly become some of our best performing TOF ads with the highest CTR of our various paid media pieces.
I think it really demonstrates that marketing can and does work well when you entertain and tell a story vs “sell”
Not only that, but these are these pieces really fun to put together because we get to flex our creative muscles as filmmakers for our business while using our products to do so. Vertical integration 📈

It would mean the world if you shared, commented, or liked. Anything to get the word out. Being an independent artist is tough and trying to do everything with a tiny crew is even harder. We do this because we love it, so I hope you guys enjoy the love we put into all of this ❤️
The reception I have been getting on my short film “How I Met My New Best Friend” has been incredible. Trying to break into the film industry sometimes feels impossible but seeing people’s reaction from my short has given me a lot of hope. I made this short film with the help of my family. My niece and I recorded the narration on my iphone while on vacation, my nephew zion did a portion of the drawings, and my fiancée did all the music , makeup (with zaria) and put up with me while I constantly talked about this weird ass idea. I just wanna thank everyone who helped bring this project to life and give my gratitude to anyone who watched and shared it. I feel so close to finally reaching my dream of being a film maker and that’s all thank to the support you guys have been giving me over the years ❤️
