INTERVIEW: THROUGH THE LENS CJ WALLIS



Mike O Keefe, writer for a prominent travel website SunCity Paradise, reached out for an interview to discuss everything from photography to touring around the country.

Editing a video and preparing a shot to best fit the subject takes a certain skill, one that Wallis has truly mastered. Whether it’s a travel landscape or one of the most prominent rappers out there, finding the right angle from the right perspective is key.


An interesting viewpoint is that while the PT3 tour videos are featuring Curren$y’s performances in every destination, the documentaries are really about his travels and himself. 
“I shoot all of it the way I see it, and then cut it and it goes up that same way,” Wallis explained. “With anything that I put up for Curren$y or whoever, people see it about them, but the way I see it’s my own documentary.”

You can read the entire interview here.

Liberal Dead New Interview With Director CJ Wallis

Mitch Reaves reached out and mentioned he was now writing for The Liberal Dead website and asked some questions about BB before the release of the film.

For any of you who may still be unfamiliar, BB is the new project from CJ Wallis, owner of FortyFPS Productions. His work is synonymous for outstanding camera work and cinematography, as well as a signature modern, yet classic look. BB is his return to the horror/thriller genre after taking time away to do documentary filming for hip hop artist Curren$y and his JetLife record label. 
BB synopsis from IMDB: 
BB is the provocative story of a girl named Leah who, under the name “Candy Cummings”, performs strip shows online from her apartment for thousands of strangers every day, never fully knowing the extent of evils that could be watching on the other side of the screen.

When I saw the first teaser trailer for BB, I was immediately hooked. After watching, I reached out to CJ, asking for absolutely any info I could get on the project. Being that he’s not only incredibly talented, but an approachable, all around good dude, he hooked me up with the exclusive stills you see below, and even better, also offered to do an interview. 

Q: Tell us a little bit about how you came up with the concept for BB?
