Kia Ora,Welcome to this space.
When I was 7 years old my Dad showed me STAR WARS for the very first time.I remember being in absolute awe of the swinging beam of light, the sounds of blasters firing and X-wings plummeting into a firery explosion.When I saw that film, I knew deep down inside what I was going to do when I grew up.I was going to be a Jedi.The natural starting point for becoming a Jedi was to get hold of a lightsaber. So I went to The Warehouse and had a look through every single isle in hopes of finding a green one.That day they sadly only had cheap plastic lightsabers in stock.So I go home and jump on my parents Windows XP computer. I boot up Internet Explorer and type into Google 'REAL LIGHTSABER HOW TO MAKE'With maybe $11 to my name, I don't think it would have been enough to cover US shipping for an Anakin Skywalker replica, but there was something else that peaked my interest...'MAKE YOUR OWN LIGHTSABER EFFECT FOR FREE USING EFFECTSLAB PRO'
I was intrigued.And then I was amazed.And that's when I knew deep down inside what I was going to do when I grew up.I was going to make cool stuff.That decision has worked out pretty good for me, and now 18 years later I am a Creative Consultant and content Producer.But with that title being said - I still cannot and will not be put in any one creative box, I'm too tall to fit.I've dipped my toes in everything and I love it all. From making songs or documentaries, performing live and directing live performance - I will give anything my best shot if I see the creative potential.On this webpage you'll find the biggest collection of my work and links to all the other names you might find me connected to, I hope you enjoy looking around.Blessings from The Divine,
Joel
