After cocooning for 13 years in the art department of an action sports accessory brand learning and absorbing every skill set he could, Chris, formerly known as TK or The Kid, emerged a hyper-creative and multi-talented professional with expertise in story telling, photography, videography, editing, animation, sound design, conceptual planning, production, and lighting ETC...

Director:

He has worn most of the hats first person which allows him to work with teams on a level of creative understanding and trust unlike most. Or he can just do it all if the budget is trash. Teehee. JK He is really trying to get away from having to be that guy and build a team if not become part of one!

Producer:

From scrappy zero budget shitshows to properly budgeted productions, he has been there and done that. Seeing it through from pre-capture-post. Budgets are awesome but he can pinch a penny when it means getting a rad idea out to the world instead of trashing it.

Conceptual Planner:

While his mind might be tweaked his ability to plan and translate creative concepts into tangible visual experiences is something he is secretly particularly proud of.

Photographer:

His 1st passion. This is a bentobox within a bentobox... He loves all the styles really. He has tried to be more of a chameleon within this space to keep him constantly trying new means to creating images and have been searching for his style since the early 90s. He can shoot any style you need though.

Video Geek:

He is 15 years into the art of visual story-telling through video and he feels like he has just scratched the surface. He can’t get through well shot movies and shows cause he is too busy pausing and rewinding figuring out how they lit it or how they got the shot. Yes btw, he flies drones... not licensed but he can do that if you need him to be. 

Gaffer:

Master the light and you win. 90% of any visual is the lighting... natural, strobe, constant... out in the world or in the studio. Chris got you.

Editor:

Yes. Really good with the usual suspects... Adobe Creative Suite, including Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign and a bunch of other random means to make rad stuff..

Sound Designer:

Picture an alligator walking to clown music, it's a funny alligator. Now picture it walking to scary music, it's a scary alligator. Sound design matters and yes he has you dialed for professional sound. Also custom foley!

Psychologist:

After years of figuring out ways to make athletes and non-models comfortable in front of the camera Chris has amassed a wide range of means to solve every puzzle that comes across my lens. Including coaching people through interviews/farming key phrases with mind tricks.
