Meet the Founders
We're two creatives, tinkerers, dreamers, and makers with complementary skillsets (and a vast network of talented allies).
Ol' Richie
￣Co-Founder • Creative Director
Christened "Ol' Richie" via sprinkles on a birthday cake. It stuck. Multiple SXSW film festival alum. Spent three years as VP of Marketing at a crowdfunded hardware start-up. Hails from Texas. Austin, mostly. Boots, brisket, and breakfast tacos.
Ready
￣Co-Founder • Creative Director
New York City blood. Los Angeles graduate. San Francisco style. Gets a moment of zen when he hears, "action!" Two decades painting with light, dancing with lens, and sculpting with story. Find him in the back-country when not behind camera.
Our Story
￣Nearly a decade ago, Ol' Richie was in a tight spot. His D.P. dropped out just a week before a shoot. He sent a fateful email to his network asking for help. That email found its way to Ready. Ready recommended himself.
The pair shared a belief that making things should be fun. That accepting challenges makes things even more fun. And that every project should be given the time and attention it truly deserves. Also, transparency. Lots of it.
Over coffee, they schemed. “Clients should be our friends… Our own network is full of our greatest allies…” A brand was born. And many years of fruitful collaboration later, they are still having a blast together.
