Just because something's 'archived', doesn't always make it old. Take a look through this timeless treasure trove of my personal work. And stay tuned for more in-house content, coming soon.
vibe videos (Ongoing)
VIBE VIDEOS, or VIBE VIDS for short, are videos I’ve ideated, shot and/or edited that serve as tributes, fan-made montages and even my own mood board concepts, all of which serve to highlight my inspiration from the various songs that these videos feature. Watch a couple for yourself.
PERFORMANCES (ongoing)
Whether it's performing poetry at open mic or silently acting in short films and spec commercials, this is yet another avenue that I want to showcase to you.
MILD TROUBLE
(2019 - ONGOING; HIATUS)
Initially a thesis project that I've been working on since 2019, this now transitioned passion project is a supernatural-thriller/drama that focuses on two African American characters, Jessica Sinclair and Maverick Williams, who also happen to be supernaturally gifted. These two 'paranaturals' come to terms with separation as Maverick decides to join the Marines, so that he can atone for past guilts and use his powers to make a difference. Meanwhile, Jessica aims to remain back home while staying in the shadows and using her powers only for her convenience. But while they come to terms with their separation, dire things come to play.
NATURE FEELS (2019)
Released in 2019, we follow two young men, Dez and Shane, who embark on a drug-filled journey in a forest, whilst finding solace within each other. They get to reside in their own dimension, with no intervention. That is, unless one of them wants to press 'Stop' and become one with reality. This art-house/poetic film is characterized by freedom, escapism, bittersweet fantasies and surprises.
