My name is Christian Virgil Reyes. I’m a first-generation FilIpino American based in both the Bay Area and New York City, and I am a multi-media creative that has been in the music & creative field for 15 years. 

Creating a docu-series hosted by Complex and Pigeons & Planes is a point in my career where my passions came together and resulted in something bigger than me. I completed the entire project on my own, gathering connections through the domestic and international music industry, shooting b-roll, conducting the interviews, editing all the footage, curating a signature look, creating a deck for the series and pitching it to to multiple platforms, and writing the article to accompany each episode, all of which demonstrate my ability to complete a project from pre-production, production, and finally post-production. See the series at the following links: Season 1 and Season 2

Most recently, I spent time working in the Artificial Intelligence sector through Cruise AI. As an Instructional Content Creator at Cruise, I learned about AI projects related to Cruise’s self-driving car model which mapped out the entirety of San Francisco’s roads, utilized RADAR and LIDAR technology, and envisioned the driving scenarios that could occur at any given moment. My role was to absorb AI project concepts, translate them into simple visuals and instruction via training modules and videos, and to help train and teach these materials to international workforces. I gained invaluable knowledge into the burgeoning AI industry that is surely taking the world to the next step of creativity, business, and human living. 

My time spent creating content and assets reflecting tech, artificial intelligence, music, arts, streetwear and hip hop via Cruise, Uninterrupted, Players Lounge, Complex and other production companies has ultimately led to a wealth of knowledge in the media industry. I’m your “swiss army knife” for content --- finding ways to “hack” media platforms to resonate with the youth, convey stories that attract a large audience, meanwhile remaining tapped into the core of sub-cultures and international scenes. I see myself as the visual content and storytelling disruption needed in an art and visual market that's in desperate need of a refresh; a refocus into the cultural stories and movements that matter.
