*Two different measures: the 35M+ counts TikTok and YouTube over the past 12 months; the 50M+ peak is one video’s total including other platforms. Both are reach metrics (views and impressions), not deduplicated unique viewers. Updated June 2026.

Same-week in LA

Based in Orange County / Los Angeles and available on short notice. When a screening or activation lands in the market, I can be there same-week and turn coverage around fast. Local, reliable, and already embedded in the screening circuit, with no travel logistics to manage.

The pitch

Why partner with me

A film creator with real access and reach that travels.

Most film creators react from the couch. I’m in the theater on opening night, at the advance screening, and at the park event, capturing the moment fans want to be part of. That dual position, discovering screenings and covering them, is what makes me useful to studios, distributors, and parks.

The reach travels far past my own following: multiple videos in the millions and a film-fan audience that keeps coming back. 97% of my YouTube watch time comes from non-subscribers, so a partner is buying discovery, not just an existing audience.

I’m also embedded in the ecosystem: I founded SeeItEarly.com, an advance-screening aggregator that tracks 30+ screening sources across 300+ cities, and I write its screening guides, so I know what’s screening, where, and when before most outlets do. Since 2020 I’ve personally attended 66+ advance screenings, premieres, and studio events.
