I got serious about learning to light, film and edit video in 2020 because I wanted to learn how to bring more attention to my music production. That has evolved into a passion for telling the stories behind my creations and experiences along with those of other artists I appreciate.
I plan to help others tell their stories through film. This is my training ground. Maybe we'll see your stories here one day!
Below you will find a few creations from my portfolio, including music videos and visualizers along with edits from the House of Fluid Reflections series I co-produce, film and edit named "HFR Artists Touch".
GRYSKLL VIDEOS
Kareem & I asked Kelvin Bonnette to come film him again for our single, "Get It". Kelvin shot me his footage and I played around and came up with this.
"Born" is GRYSKLL's first collaborative song this year (2022). I asked Kareem & Demond to film themselves with their iPhones so I could use that footage and some BTS of T-Bear working on the scratches for the song and put this together.
GRYSKLL needed a video for our first single, "Butterscotch Linens". Kareem Muse secured Kelvin Bonette to film him & 1 to Dial and they shipped me the footage to edit.
One of my favorite tools for digital art is Canva.com. I used it to make the frame and background then put together another Vimeo stock footage edit to drop onto the laptop screen.
The instrumental was one of those wake up inspired at 2 AM & play with the MPC sessions.
Created this while trying to figure out how to make an attractive music NFT when I first started learning about NFTs in (Spring 2021).
ParaMINA.
I created this in hopes that I could inspire my daughter, Mina to pursue her dreams. The main instrumental in this video was supposed to be for another video snippet Yaniwas working on. Our wires got crossed and I made this video with BTS footage from our Fall 2020 Brooklyn, NY photoshoot.

This features a bunch of our chop sessions and beats behind uNKLe SiCKNeSs finessing his recently built Captain America rig. This day was much smoother than day one (shown in "SiCKnBLaCK: ALL CAPS" below).

Beats x BMX Flatland Day 1
uNKLe SiCKNeSs is a multi-talented brother I've known for ages. I've been trying to capture a good story with him for close to a year. This outing with his freshly built Captain America rig, just before his 50th birthday, is the first time I found my groove. Sick added to the production value with his proposed & excellently executed fireplace scenes. Can't wait to execute more ideas together as our production value grows.

Finding Voids
One of at least 4 videos I shot and edited over music from the Finding Voids album. It came from one of my days experimenting with a 360 camera and then using the footage in a way it wasn't meant to be used by the software. :-)
Another from one of my days experimenting with a 360 camera and then misusing the editing software.
Footage from Spring 2020 wearing a mask BEFORE lockdown. Married to an instrumental I was preparing for the Finding Voids album. This version of the instrumental is on the album on streaming services and BandCamp. The remix is on the album on this site.
I just saw some of the leftover footage from this and I'm salty. I could have waited and used way more footage AND the remix with the spicier arrangement and better mix! I loved this version anyway because it was my first time taking my own random practice camera footage and turning it into something,

This was my first project in almost 15 years. Shaking off the dust...
My art is never finished. There were some things that annoyed me about the version that went to streaming. Fixed some of them here. The rest will have to be done on other music. :-)
