This is my story, and I am the DIRECTOR.
“Intuition gets clearer with experience.” -Brian Buirge
I’m a creative with a passion for media of many flavors, focusing on video and branching out to photography and design. I maintain a heightened interest in the cross between creative and commercial multimedia applications, making me a well-rounded individual eager to produce multimedia content that’s well above satisfactory.
I also have a very prominent love for making things with my hands. Adam Savage and Jimmy DiResta are my major role models and inspirations. I like making costumes, prop replicas and 3D printing projects, and LEGO builds. Yes, that’s a LEGO bow tie in the photo.
Peace and love,
-CF
