Who We Are
At House of 8 Media we love art, culture, and especially live performance. We like to remind people that it doesn't matter if we're making time to gather in person or online - we're still gathering in real-time.
Through visual storytelling, our company strives to push creative and logistical boundaries. We believe that PEOPLE are why we follow, subscribe, watch, or buy. Our job is to deliver a positive experience for our clients and audience members from start to finish.
Our team's collective purpose swells to meet the mission of each client. We are speciliasts in designing a new workflow to meet each industry sector we find ourselves being the storytellers for. We're not a factory, we're a collective of artists for hire.

Madness is the denial of my boundless, creative potential. I’m a man on mission to create a more loving culture by sharing my bliss with as many as possible. I do this by rocking a stabilized camera when no one else does, encouraging others to live it up, and bringing the gold home for all our houses to benefit.
