Art of Visuals: On Camera

I direct, but I'm just as comfortable on the other side of the lens. Hosting gear films for Sony, running workshops, mentoring, and a weekly podcast. I've carried a brand's voice with the red light on, in front of an audience of 1.7M and counting.

Creator Clubhouse.

Creator Clubhouse is the Art of Visuals podcast, and I co-hosted it every week. The show grew to 30,000 monthly listeners by taking one question seriously: what does it take to be a creative in the modern world? The hosts sat down with CMOs and culture-shifting creatives and got into the parts that never make the highlight reel: mental health, consistency, relationships. Minimal gear talk, maximum humanity.

\ The wall

Press play. I show up right on cue.

The formats: gear breakdowns for Sony, event recaps, workshops, live activations. Somebody has to carry the show and keep the brand safe while doing it.

The proof. Twelve tapes below. Press play on any of them.

Campaign films and panels. Presenting work DJ directed, which is the trick: the pitch voice and the camera voice are the same voice.

The range. From a scripted spot to an unscripted stage.

Creator Clubhouse, weekly. CMOs and working creatives on the parts that never make the highlight reel: mental health, consistency, relationships.

The show. 30K monthly listeners, co-hosted.
