Filmmaker/Photographer
Kirby Griffin Is A Cinematographer And Street Photographer From The West Baltimore Area Of Maryland. As A Child Of The Arts, Kirby Pursued Filmmaking In His Early Twenties After Initially Chasing A Dream Of Being A Performance Artist - Spoken Word/Acting - Searching For The Perfect Outlet To Express Himself As A Storyteller. In The Wake Of The DSLR Era, He Set His Sights On Cinematography In 2011, With The Help Of A Friend And Fellow Artist ‘Jerald Kerr’, Also Known As ‘Jay Mastermind’. Both Motivated Outside Of The Academic Structure, They Began Teaching Themselves The Art And Craft Of Filmmaking By Diving Headfirst, Purchasing Their Own Equipment And Then Filming, Directing, And Editing As Much As Possible. They Came Away With Countless Hours Of Study By Way Of Literature, Youtube Tutorials, Lectures, Networking, And A Tremendous Amount Of Trial And Error, Which Proved Essential.
