Today we’d like to introduce you to Taylor Hunt.
Taylor, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
My name is Taylor Hunt. I have always had a passion for traveling.
Growing up my mom and I never had much funds for anything, but blessing after blessing we managed to make our way across the globe. My mother always told me to take in God’s creation and learn from his people. We never traveled for luxurious or leisurely visits in other countries. Instead, we enjoyed the adventure and immersing ourselves in the wonderful and beautiful cultures around the world.
As I got to college I started to get into film and explored the possibilities. The more I learned, the more I fell in love with film and how much of the world can be seen or even told of through film. I loved that no matter where we went, what we learned, and the things we experienced while traveling, it’s always about people. Human beings are complex, ambitions, curious and so much more. We cannot deny that there is bad in the world.
And we cannot dismiss the good in the world. And through all these experiences, film has shown me the most magical ways in which people have told stories of the past, the present and the future. Film has the power to inspire, spark ambition, cater to ideas, reveal situations of politics, the world and so much more. So a lifelong friend of mine and I decided to start a production company we named: Tailor Made Pictures.
A company that would explore the human nature, explores stories that inspire and impact lives around the world in the missions they stand for to create change. And we want to share this with the World.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
With anything involving film copy rights, trademarks, licensing, etc is very sensitive and must be taken into consideration of all legal restrictions when it comes to recording the open world and the people in it.
We’ve been very cautious in these steps, but it was very time consuming considering the details of starting up our own production company. As of now, having the equipped crew for bigger projects becomes our next challenge, yet Tailor Made Pictures is very excited to be informed on all the wonderful missions and projects people have in the works waiting to present them to the world!
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Tailor Made Pictures – what should we know?
Tailor Made Pictures strives to support and inspire independent artist, as well as work with them to create visual stories with meaning to share to the world. We are reminded of the abundant human legacies through stories that have been written down, painted, recited, etc.
Since the latest records we know of our existence; both fiction and non-fictional. Seeing that from film reaches such a wide audience, it is our passion at Tailor Made Pictures to reveal the stories of great impact to the world to spark change.
