What’s up! I’m Omari, a filmmaker based in Atlanta, GA.

I’ve been drawn to the art of storytelling for as long as I can remember. Whether it was getting lost in a book or encapsulated by a good melody, I was always captivated by the power of a well-told story. But what I love most, is how all of these elements—words, visuals, sounds—come together to create something bigger than themselves. And that’s when I discovered the magic of cinema.

My filmmaking journey started back in 2015 when I joined my high school’s AVTF program. What started as a fun venture with friends, turned into a full-blown passion. The more I progressed within the program, the more I fell in love. But what really drove the nail in the coffin was the short film I had to submit for the Atlanta Film Festival. Despite not winning, I’ve been all in ever since.

I studied Film & Media at Georgia State University and took hands-on courses at the Georgia Film Academy to develop my craft. For the past five years, I’ve been directing music videos, serving as a DP on short films, and helping local brands tell their stories.
