CREED MEDIA LINKS

Curtis is self-taught filmmaker & video producer who established the 'CREED' business name at 14 years of age and has continued it ever since.

In October of 2023, CREED Media was proud to have accomplished its first ever feature length film; a documentary called 'ACCent on Music'. In partnership with the Associated Catholic Colleges, this story follows the logistical nightmare of coordinating 600 students from 13 secondary schools to perform a combined concert at Hamer Hall. This production was pitched in February of 2020 and eventually commenced its first day of shooting May of 2022.

26 days and 83 interviews later, the film entered its post-production season which lasted nearly exactly a year due to the ever-changing landscape of the story with no pre-written script to follow.
