DIRECTING A VIDEO WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY

This Saturday morning, I woke up excitedly to shoot a music video for an organization that I feel unusually close to, Urban Edge. It's an organization that helps those with limited income find clean, safe and comfortable housing. These people are selfless, in my opinion, in ways I could only hope I could be.

This particular day, I am going to shoot a music video based on a song I wrote for this organization. It was really fun working with Malik (my music director), his daughter, Alyssia, his wife, friends and singers that came out to volunteer their talents for this special video that marks the 40 years that Urban Edge has been looking out for those in the community, giving them the respect and hope that we all deserve as fellow human beings.

Today was so much fun. And seeing Malik connect with his 8 year old daughter and his 18 month old son while working at the same time, was truly inspiring. Another benchmark for me to try to be an even better dad.
