Available to hire
Hi, I’m Rj Sweet, a founder, video producer, editor, and photographer who builds and shoots content for events, brands, weddings, and lifestyle projects. My work spans corporate production, live events, travel, and surf culture, and I love turning complex ideas into engaging visuals. I thrive in fast-paced environments and enjoy collaborating with teams to craft stories that resonate with audiences.
The art challenges the technology, and the technology inspires the art. I pursue projects that blend creativity with smart production, and I’m always looking for new challenges—whether that’s launching ventures like Bisqy, delivering high-profile live streams, or mentoring teams to reach their best work.
