If you guys have some Directors that you feel I should check out, please let me know in the comments. Obviously, I have a certain aesthetic that I enjoy, may not be for everyone. That being said If you haven’t seen some of the films by these directors, by all means do so. You’re welcome.
Long time coming, this is where I will be posting updates on the work we are doing and also my opinion on all things media, film, photography and gaming. Stay tuned…
