Hey everyone! I'm Cameron the Cameraman. I've been filming music videos, documentaries, and promo videos since 2012. I've ended up with hundreds of hours of interviews and live shows on dusty hard drives. Since I moved to Denton a few months ago, I decided to make something with all of this footage.

My goal is to tell the story of musicians using the culture of Denton as a backbone. The hardships, the triumphs, the perseverance, and what happens when it fails/succeeds. I've filmed bands that have gone onto fame and some that don't exist anymore. I want to explore this world using the last decade+ of footage

Thanks to Ginny Mac for letting me come out and do a little proof of concept for the film.I f you have n contacts or ideas (especially if they include how to fund this puppy), email me: [email protected]

I always forget to update this page. But here's a new thing I'm playing around with. Anyone wanna play some 1960s housewives that can't escape from a home video?

Camera Obscura explores the horrific, mind bending, and impossible systems that misogny built. A battered soul discovers an old home video with the seeds of sexism woven into every frame.

I got inspired to dust out the old script for this classic project. So inspired that I also threw together this creepy lookin thing.
