I make art in real life and for the internet. My hope is that I provide value and/or entertainment in a way that is uniquely me.
About me…
Born and raised in rural Southeastern Ohio, I was a lifelong athlete. Football allowed me to earn a scholarship to Northwestern University, where I obtained two degrees. Unfortunately, my playing career was derailed by injuries, forcing me to confront an uncertain future. In this process of rediscovery, my passion for the visual arts - both still and moving imagery - was ignited.
Artistic philosophy…
Life along the Ohio River, in Appalachia instilled in me a straight forward philosophy: work hard, keep things simple, and be consistent. This philosophy largely influences my current work. Prominent to my artistic approach is capturing the moment with a controlled but energetic tone. At the forefront of my projects are often clarity of purpose and compelling stories of discovery.

The Pack Strap™ A very useful item
zhlédnutí 252Před měsícem
Chicago's own, Ron Louis comes to the studio and teaches me how to sew. I made my first product, The Pack Strap™ - a sling strap that helps you carry a 12-pack, hands free. This is a silly product, yet is a solution to a real problem that I experience weekly. This is not a sewing demo.

this Pack Strap actually has some potential. I can see people here in Berlin and over the world in citites using it, because it has less material hence reduces price and carbon dioxide emissions
There’s something there! I’m going to play with some short form videos to gauge the viability…. You never know.

Hey Jaylen, nice vlog! I haven't done much woodworking in the past few years, but I can pretty much immediately say that the reason your handle keeps breaking is because the wood grain is in the wrong orientation. When lifting the case, you are causing stress to the wood where it is weakest: along the grain. You would be much better off rotating the wood 90º and trying it that way. It may just change the weak point of the oak to right in the middle of the handle, but it won't keep breaking like this. Plywood is layered, compressed wood in different orientations, and that would be much stronger if you have any laying around.
Genius! I thought that might be the case, but didn't put much thought to it. Thanks for the info and thanks for watching! Cheers!
You just inspired me to get started! Thank you very much!
Go get it!
This is GOLD. this deserves more views
Thanks, Andres!
Found you on IG and jumped on here. 🎉 Been wanting to start CZcams too so I am very inspired.
Welcome, Tiffany! Thanks for following along! Hoping to ramp up publishing soon! Stay tuned!
the chewing made me wanna click off so bad
but did you?
Best of luck with the channel Jaylen. Excited to see where it goes. I’m of a similar background to yourself in terms of using CZcams as a resource. It would be great to see a video based around your history and how you got to this point.
MY FIRST "REAL" COMMENT!
Thanks Connor! Definitely a lot more coming in the near future!
