2022 Reel

Throughout this page you will see the growth throughout my career. The beginning all throughout today. It was one of my first pages on my site. Thanks to many people pushing me and giving me opportunities like no other I have gotten myself to a level of filming I never imagined. It is imperative to me, to never take a moment for granted and to film everything. You have one shot, pun intended.
Thank you everyone for your support and exploring my page!

A Story of Freedom

Written and performed by Avalon Hogans, this piece was one of my favorite pieces to date. It was a huge collaboration with Jordan Sennate on audio, Michael Canella on motion graphics, and Matt Michel on the edit. It was 100 degrees out and we trekked through Freedmen's town in the hot Texas summer to make a difference and tell a story of black Houston. This piece was a reminder that we have a voice and filming is a powerful tool to help raise awareness and perfectly tell a story. Freedmen's Town has a special place in my heart and every year I have the honor to volunteer and film there. (Produced in summer of 2023) This project won a Silver International Telly Award.

Adrian Peterson x KIWICLO

This was an awesome collaboration with NFL MVP Adrian Peterson and KIWICLO. Shout out to both of them for being so open about creativity and trying out new things.

Hyde Park x Houston Rockets

Hyde Park is a very cool concept of a clothing brand. They are extremely exclusive and you need a code in order to purchase one of their items! This was a super experimental piece inspired by Gayuken. This project won a Silver international Telly Award.

When we visited Brooklyn to play the Nets I went around to film some scenics after being inspired by one of my favorite directors, Wes Anderson. Produced in 2022

MAKE A WISH

This has been one of my favorite collaborations to date. Make a Wish stories are like no other. It's surreal, and it makes you appreciate the little things in life that we may take for granted. It has been an amazing honor to work with an organization like this. Here is one of my favorite pieces with them and Disney! Produced in 2023

ADIDAS GIRLS BASKETBALL

PINCH A PENNY

This is one of the commercial pieces created with Pinch a Penny and Rowdy Gaines! The Pinch a Penny team truly helped bring me to the next professional step in my career. I am blessed to have worked with such a huge organization like this. Growing up, I used to buy floats from here and 20 years later I produced and created commercials for their brand. This experience was one of my favorites, the energy was so exciting and collaborative. Enjoy! Filmed and produce in 2019.

This shoot was a spontaneous one. A friend of mine brought me to light and film and let me just say, I had a field day. Created in 2020.

I’ve had the honor to film some pieces with the largest competitive soccer club in Florida, this club is full of amazing stories and athletes from World Cup Champions to 7 yr olds that are so good they could play against high schoolers. Blessed to have met these people along my journey. 2019

DREAM THE FUTURE

“We want to see the newest things.
That is because we want to see the future, even if momentarily. It is the moment in which, even if we don’t completely understand what we have glimpsed, we are nonetheless touched by it. This is what we have come to call art.” - Takashi Murakami

(Thank you @caseybalbontin for the VFX and @delgrande10 for acting.

40 YEARS

This film about Marie Labadie-DeGennaro was one of the most emotional films I have worked on. It was my first time directing and it taught me a lot about leadership and teamwork. The passion from everyone who helped work on this was inspiring. One of my favorite films and crews yet. We are submitting to film festivals very soon and there will be an extended version in the near future. If you have any thoughts or feedback after watching please let me know! Every bit of it helps. Thank you for taking your time to watch!

HAMMER HEAD SWIM CAPS

Hammer Head Swim Caps are a game changer for the safety in swimming. The swim cap is made of a honeycomb technology that absorbs the shock from impact. This collaboration with Rowdy Gaines, Theresa Finn, and David Burns was one of the best.

2015 THE BEGINNING

This was the first ever video I created. It was summer 2015 in the Smokey Mountains and it was as far back as I can go into my journey as a filmmaker. I usually archive my old projects off my site, however, this was different. You can feel my inspiration and effort in all of the cheesy transitions. It reminds me why I do what I do and it reminds me how much practice and repetition can help one grow. You can create something out of nothing and gear doesn't matter, the story and moments do.
