Rob Silver | Cinematography Reel 🎬

I’m stepping away from the traditional “yearly recap.”
Instead, this reel will live and evolve, updated as new work is made.

Not every project here was filmed in 2025, but every one of them matters to me and reflects the direction I’m moving in. You’ll notice there are no performance shots. That’s intentional. As I head into 2026, my focus is shifting fully toward narrative work.

That said, 2025 was deeply formative. I met incredible people, worked on meaningful projects and most importantly, found clarity in where I want my life and work to go.

To everyone I collaborated with this year: your trust, time, and belief mean more than I can put into words. I’m endlessly grateful, and I can’t wait to keep creating together.

Here’s to making 2026 not just the best year yet, but the clearest. ❤️

I couldn’t be more proud to share the official trailer for my short film “Thoughts & Prayers”.

This project means the world to me. I was fortunate enough to make it alongside some of my closest friends — a group of incredibly talented people who poured their hearts into every frame.

This film is monumental for all of us. It’s a story born out of love, pain, and community, and I can’t wait to finally see it on the big screen this winter, surrounded by so many other powerful works.

To the cast, crew, and every single donor who believed in this vision: thank you. You made this possible. Thank you for helping me chase my dreams.

See you at the theater. 🖤🎬

“Words For Mom” | Directed By @robsilvervisuals

In 2018, my mom was diagnosed with vascular dementia.
This film is an ode to her legacy — and to the quiet ways pieces of ourselves carry forward through time.

Stills from a little short film I made called “Words for Mom.”

Some fun test footage shot on the RED Komodo-X. Absolutely blown away by the image and the amount you can do with the 16bit RAW. I cannot wait to start shooting real projects with this camera 🎥🔥

Loved every second of this set. Shoutout to Five Steps Back for being so way to work with and trusting the vision. And as always, huge shoutout to @agoad__123 on the fantastic lighting 💡

Make sure to check it out on YouTube to see some of the best night exteriors that @agoad__123 and I have ever done—super stoked about the blue moon we pulled off 🌕

Also, I’ve really been loving working with bands recently. I genuinely think it’s time for a new chapter 🎸
