Brown is a Louisiana filmmaker who has worked in several areas of production from local TV spots to Hollywood South films. A New Orleans native and St. Augustine alumnus, he received his bachelor's degree in Communication Studies from LSU while working with several LSU theatre and media productions and Tiger TV News and Sports. He has worked in the Louisiana film industry since 2013 and has been a part of over 15 film and television projects. He recently produced, directed, and shot an episode of BetteR, a documentary web series produced by NOVAC, which highlights groups and individuals in the Baton Rouge community in the aftermath of the events of the summer of 2016. The episode focuses on the internal and external struggles of media members, specifically WAFB Channel 9 in Baton Rouge, during the city’s most trying time in the national spotlight. What started out as a simple short documentary episode now has grown into a feature-length project, which is currently in production.
