Hi Marcus, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I started off having a natural interest in fixing things around the house such as computers TVs & etc, so I always knew I’d have a Business in the Field of technology… my 12 grade year of high school my councilor set my schedule for me to take broadcasting class as one of my electives. That year I found out I was good at being a part of the process of Film making as the actor/editor/writer etc. This was fairly new for me because I was use to spending most of my time preparing to be an athlete or getting into trouble with friends. I got good feedback from the work I put into my class for that year and eventually developed a passion behind the camera. I got into more trouble after completing high school and spent years serving time in jail. there in jail is where I found time to focus on really what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I came up with a business name and a plan to make it happen soon as I got out of jail… 3 years after graduation from high school I moved to New Orleans to attend film school for a year then moved back to Atlanta. since then I’ve been in ATL working with other businesses, Brands and Artist to bring about their Vision.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
This transition was not easy at all there is more to my story. before I started to get behind the camera or begin to be recognized & have a Voice. I have always been a under dawg. I moved to Atlanta from another state I’m originally from Mobile, AL. I had to learn a lot on my own starting very Young. I’ve made mistakes some big & others little. I got involved with the wrong things and had to pay for the consequences a lot of that slowed me down. I dealt with a lot of mental issues early on and still do however I’m in a much better space now mentally and the rode isn’t as rough as before
