Good morning! Here’s my first commercial! 😊 I’ve created short films before, but now I’m in the process of building my personal brand, so this was a little different for me. The two videos actually go hand in hand as part of the same campaign. I really like how it came together! It took me a little time to get my AI twin together 😂, but I’m finally starting to feel like, “Okay, that’s HER!” She’s still a work in progress, and I know the cohesiveness and overall quality of the campaigns will continue to get better over time. TASTIES is a mock donut company I created specifically for this commercial, so the entire concept gave me a chance to experiment with creating a full brand campaign from scratch. Definitely a learning process, but I’m really enjoying it!

I’ve been watching y’all create and I SEE YOU! 👀 I’m seeing new directors posting their work for the very first time, returning directors exploring different styles, and creators taking what they’re learning and building actual campaigns for their businesses. @Latosha Brown @Bryant Wright @Kevin Holmes @Lanitta Willis @Trina Noel @Jessica Williams @Tamarah Douglas @Dr Tajiri Brackens Profit Protector @Sha Brooks @Chondrea Black Amazing job gang!! Don’t be afraid to post because you’re still learning. This is where you practice, experiment, get feedback and develop your own creative voice! And when you see another director post their work, show them some love! ❤️ Like it. Leave a comment. Give encouragement. Ask questions. We’re building alongside each other. 🙌🏽

Most of us cinematic directors are naturally drawn to 16:9 because... It just gives FILM, right? But lately, I’ve been testing, exploring and adjusting my storytelling ads specifically for 9:16, and it definitely changes the way I think about my images, framing, camera movement and how I build the story. And I’m a student right now too. 👩🏾‍💻 So I’ve been learning and experimenting more with video extension features, testing what works, what doesn’t and where these models will have you wasting credits for absolutely no reason. 🙄 Once I’ve worked through it and have my tips, tricks and workflow together, I’ll be dropping a module inside the classroom (STORYTELLING ADS) so y’all can try your hand at it without having to do all the expensive experimenting first. For now... I’m dropping my latest “Someone’s Home” storytelling ad below. I’ve been having FUN exploring these Storytelling ads. Quick tip - If your not using capcut. I highly recommend learning a few editing tips! ;) That module is inside the classroom.
