Keep The Pace - A short visual experience

An athlete mentally prepares for the rematch of a devastating and embarrassing loss.

- From The Director -
This idea has been in my head for more than 10 years. It’sa small portion of a much bigger film idea. I worked hard with some great people to bring this to you by using some new tools for creating.

Things are tough out here right now, we’ve all suffered tough losses, and we’ve all been down for the count. It’s my hope and prayer that we won’t let it stop us. The rest of our story isn’t written yet. Please enjoy this film and share it with someone that may need this small piece of sunshine today.

Thank you.

André

Wishing a very happy birthday to my young princess 🚀. I’m super proud of her. She’s intelligent, strong, caring, driven, fun loving, and focused. The video and the audio capture her energy in so many ways. Love ya!

Once again, I had the pleasure and opportunity to create the announcement of the Webby Award nominations! It’s a fun process of packing in as many noms as we can while also telling the story of the year on the internet.

Shout out to the entire team @thewebbyawards (especially @emmajanelarson ) for managing all of the thoughts, ideas, and trusting me with this for 5 years in a row!

You only have until April 16th to vote for your favs so get to it! The double post is intentional👍🏿✊🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

People are often inquisitive about what I do. My motto is “Tell great stories and have fun doing it.”

My new sizzle reel highlights some of my most recent work in branded, social, live, and original projects (including an Emmy-nominated production.)

When we’re shooting Compound Conversations, we’re just trying to have fun, crack jokes, and de-stress as the world burns. I’m officially in the Gorilla Nems “Don’t Ever Disrespect Me” roll call 🤣😂🤣🤣

When we shoot the guest walk-in for COMPOUND CONVERSATIONS, I always give the direction “This is your BELLY intro shot!” Every guest immediately knows what I’m talking about. The intro to the cult classic is emblazoned on the culture. Shout out to Hype Williams and Malik Sayeed. Using movie magic I wanted to give all of this year’s guests their full, glow in the dark walk-in treatment. Thanks to the Creative Jedi @iam_setfree , all of our talented guests, and the whole team at Compound Conversations and @tmronetwork . More to come!

Watch something cool and fun! I created this dynamic, exciting, promo for @aaaerodynamics .

All About Aerodynamics is a team-oriented, STEAM (Science TechnologyEngineering Art Math) program that uses Hot Wheels® cars to teach K-6 students about various physics-related concepts. It’s taught both in-person and online by Coach James.

Additionally, every Saturday Coach James livestreams “drag races” of cars for kids and grown up Hot Wheels fans alike. Education + toys + racing = Fun.

This video was developed and created using responsible and ethical use of AI, including generative imagery. The magic was heightened by my own experience and knowledge of Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop,photography, sound design, and playing with toy cars as a kid :)

**Hot Wheels is a registered trademark of Mattel. No endorsement of All About Aerodynamics on the part of Mattel has occurred or is implied.**

Some call it summer, but real ones know—it’s the start of @amerie season.Flashing back to rare behind-the-scenes footage I shot for the iconic ‘1 Thing’ video, directed by the legend himself, @mrrobotodirectorYou never know what I’ll pull out the 📼vault next…#BTS #Amerie #1Thing #BETArchives #BeCarefulBuddy #BlackCloudFilms

Wishing a happy birthday to the life of the party. My senior princess, she’s all grown up and thriving. I’m blessed to be her dad.

Year 4 of making magic for @TheWebbyAwards ✨ aka stitching together epic internet greatness into video packages..including that one I sweated out until 4AM the night before…just in case 👽 could attend…(he couldn’t).

These vids introduce the honorees, show their energy, influence, and what makes them absolute legends. It’s like crafting a puzzle... if the pieces were vibes, memes, and last-minute clip requests. 🧩🔥

A couple even got standing ovations (!!)
Huge shoutout to the Webby team for trusting me with this madness every year. Wouldn’t have it any other way. #Webbys #BTS #VideoEditorLife #GratefulAndRendering
