I've spent the last 8 years scripting, shooting, and editing content for social media (both organic and paid). In that time, my work has received more than 100 million impressions across social media platforms and supported multiple 7 figures of ad spend for a number of well-recognized brands, including Mr. Beast, The NFL, Salvation Army, The NBA, The Hoop Bus, Aubrey Marcus, Breathwrk, Nicole Arbor, and TopCourt. Luckily, this wide range of clientele has given me a clear sense of how to envision and produce thumb-stopping content for use on TikTok and Instagram - videos that capture attention and don't lose that attention quickly. A blend of sound choice, text overlays, and the right shot selection is the key to my secret sauce. (My tool of choice is the Adobe Creative Suite - Premiere Pro, Audition, After Effects, Lightroom, Photoshop.)I'm pretty plug & play - depending on the structure & distribution of your current team. I can hit the ground running and start producing content pretty quickly. I would love to chat more!

Oscar and Emmy-Nominated PES is the creator of some of the most widely viewed stop-motion films of all-time including Fresh Guacamole, Western Spaghetti, Submarine Sandwich, Game Over, Human Skateboard, KaBoom! and Roof Sex. On his YouTube Channel alone, PES's films have been viewed over 1.4 billion times. PES's uncanny knack for transforming familiar objects and people through stop-motion animation has earned him global recognition and dozens of honors, including an Academy Award® nomination for Fresh Guacamole in 2013. (At 1 minute 40 seconds, Fresh Guacamole is the shortest film ever nominated for an Oscar, as confirmed by The New York Times and The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences). Now, with over a billion+ consolidated views online, Fresh Guacamole is the most-viewed Oscar short in history. PES is the originator of "the stop-motion cooking film" genre with his short film Western Spaghetti in 2008. Western Spaghetti earned Time Magazine's #2 Viral Video of the Year in 2008 as well as the Audience Award at Annecy in 2009. PES's three stop-motion cooking shorts -- Western Spaghetti (2008), Fresh Guacamole (2012) and Submarine Sandwich (2014) -- have spawned thousands of copycat works online and established "the-stop-motion-cooking-film-with-substituted objects" as a popular meme. In addition to his original content, PES has also directed over 75 commercials for major international brands including Corona, Honda, Android, Orange Telecom, Kinder Surprise, PlayStation, Sprint, Samsung and Bacardi. Some of these commercials have became viral hits on YouTube reaching into the hundreds of millions of views. In 2016, PES received an Emmy® Award nomination for his commercial Honda "Paper", a 2-minute stop-motion tour de force showcasing the 50-year history of the Honda Motor Company. The spot earned numerous ad industry awards including the One Show's "Automobile Advertising of the Year Award." It was also recently added to the permanent collection at both the Louvre's Museum of Advertising and The Museum of Modern Art.

Deemed a “Breakthrough Star” by MMSCENE Magazine, English-Nigerian producer, singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, speaker, and model, ASHER YELO, is one to watch. As a self-taught musician, he is taking the definition of “bedroom producer” to new heights, having already written and produced for the likes of Harmony Samuels; producing duo, Sons of Sonix; Brittany B.; Coco Jones; and Reina, before even graduating from high school. His self-written, produced, and performed debut solo project, know me (2021) was added to over 3,000 playlists on Spotify alone, including New Music Friday, BBC Radio 1 UK Top 40, and more. His lead single “go backwards” was featured in Oprah Winfrey’s “Queen Sugar” and also received support from Australian radio. Now at 20 years of age, 2022 brings forth a new side of ASHER YELO, as demonstrated through his widely-acclaimed remixes, which received recognition from the official Instagram team, and led to an onsite activation at Coachella. His Reddit live streams, in which he breaks down and teaches music production, have also garnered upwards of 2.5 million views. With Nigerian and English roots, his style is reflective of both elements of West African beats and introspective English lyricism, which will be on full display in his upcoming EP, mr. misunderstood. ASHER YELO’s ability to create music that communicates across borders is also evident through his ability to fluently speak French, and his global production style is influenced by having lived in multiple countries and traveled to five out of the seven continents. As a bi-racial artist with a strong desire to inspire the youth of his generation, he has written, produced, and performed original charity singles for the GEANCO Foundation, alongside the likes of Benedict Cumberbatch, Andrew Garfield, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Cynthia Erivo, in addition to a number of other philanthropic endeavors. In conjunction with his burgeoning music career, ASHER YELO has walked in numerous fashion shows, including four Dolce & Gabbana runways during Milan and New York Fashion Week. With nine years of experience honing his skills as a producer and writer, ASHER YELO also caught the attention of legendary Quincy Jones Productions, and signed to the company for management, shortly thereafter. Through his musical storytelling, he doesn't shy away from sharing his struggles, whether large or trivial, but hopes that his transparency can touch hearts and souls. As a completely independent artist, ASHER YELO’s mission isn’t just to be seen, but rather to help provide a voice for the unseen.
