Meet LloydB Media | Director & Cinematographer

We had the good fortune of connecting with LloydB Media and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi LloydB, how do you think about risk?
Choosing to enter the entertainment industry was a risk. its a risk I was always willing to take though. There’s many talented Directors, Photographers, and Cinematographers, but I knew I’ve always had a creative vision that the world needs to see. Word of Advice, every time you take that risk, even though you may not reach your goal, you’ll always learn something. I look at risk as learning opportunities. When I’m faced with obstacles that I feel may be a risk, sometimes ill take my chances and sometimes I won’t, either or comes with a learning opportunity.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
In the begining I was lost. I knew I wanted a foot in the industry, but I wasn’t too sure of the route I wanted to take. I knew I didn’t want to be a mainstream artist, even though I do have bars, and I didn’t want the headache of an executive role. I picked up the camera to try something new. Along the way, the process wasn’t easy. but it became so much easier. It wasn’t because I was learning the skill faster, it was because of the many smiles I put on my clients faces. I structured my business around what the client needs rather than what the business needs. I always knew my business would succeed if I kept happy clients.
