MICAH JAMES TAKES THE PLLATFORM ~ I’ve gathered lots of behind the scenes photos for an upcoming video called “Said Too Much” featuring Artist Micah James. Today, inspiration filled the room on this shoot! Absolutely everyone contributed his or her full talent here. Micah’s lyrics have you in deep thought and the vibration of the bass keeps you pumped…no lie. The Director Nathan Kim pieced everything together along with key people as James Outlaw, Theodore “Teddy” Gilliam (Production), Jake Weinraub (Camera Asst), Ryan Granich (Lighting), Rene Vas (Art Dir), Astrid Gallegos (Wardrobe), Cheyenne Sarfati (Makeup), Nina Lucas (Hair), Miguel Zarate (Choreographer) & Joe Gabler and Nick White (Extremely Hardworking Prod. Asst). I’m so sure you will find these guys on FB, Instagram, Twitter, etc. I reccomend using anyone from the entire cast & crew for A-1 service.

All Smiles ~ Joey Love
{Snap shots from the sketchbook of Joey Love}
Joey Love is one talented young lady that is emerging in the art world. She does off the cuff sketches, paintings and soon to start her own t-shirt line. Here is one of my favorite sketches that I call “Drake All Smiles”. I love how she shadows in all the emotions through the lines and shades in the tinniest little marks like stubble so you can get the full effect of this individual.

Pharrell Williams – Master Collaborator
The man of the hour and all time collaborator, Mr. Pharrell Williams knows how to keep you interested. His interview in The Red Bulletin (A Red Bull Magazine that definitely has wings)…truly speaks to you with a very open mind. Pharrell has topped the charts with “Blurred Lines” & currently “Happy” of the “Despicable Me” movie & creative 24 hour video. He’s at the top of my list for being one of the many creative minds of the century.
It’s Tracy Kennedy ~ Celebrity Makeup Artist
Ever wonder how those celebrity faces get that flawless look? Wonder no more….Tracy Kennedy is one to watch out for. I found him at LA Style Fashion Week dressed in powder blue from head-to-toe. Curiosity had me approach him to ask…”What is it that you do?” He kindly hands me a 1 3/4″ by 2″ business card that I almost miss placed-it felt like it was a golden ticket! Known for making the faces of Rihanna, Fantasia & Brittany Spears, he not only does makeup but now has a YouTube channel called Apollo Night LA Radio – Monday @ 7pm. He can be found on Twitter.com/ItsTracyKennedy.
Herakut ~ Street Artists
Herakut are two very gratifying German street artists that work together as one. They bring out those deep emotions that were bottled up inside of you for so long. To me, their work speaks the truth in the most mysterious ways. They do huge art pieces on walls & buildings across the world like Banksy (another favorite of mine). I was so blessed to have found this work here in Los Angeles located in the heart of China Town. “With our thoughts we make the world” See what they are up to by searching their images [Herakut Graffiti]
Sequoia Emmanuelle
VANO ~ Recording Artist
