Clyde’s health story gave us a chance to show more than a testimonial. It is about the day-to-day work of changing habits, finding balance, and making room for the people and things he loves. I came on as director of photography and worked with Riley Alicia and the Windy Films team to make the film feel close to Clyde’s real life.

We filmed him moving, training, and spending time with family. Those moments helped the story feel like his, rather than a message delivered to camera. Even between takes, we were getting our own workout in.

A project like this takes a crew that can pay attention and move together. I am grateful to Riley, Windy Films, and everyone who helped bring Clyde’s story to the screen.
