world builder and storyteller

Inspired at an early age, Lamont's affinity for world-building began in his aunt's home in Detroit. Her basement was filled with VHS tapes with blank covers and hand-written titles. Because his aunt sometimes recorded multiple films on the same tape, many endings were cut off, leaving Lamont free range to imagine his endings. He later discovered that he was creating new endings for classics which led him to his influences such as Spike Lee, John Singleton, Martin Scorsese, and Spike Jonze.

He is managed by ColorCreative and sits on the board of the Michigan Film Industry Association with an aim to build an innovative and sustainable industry.
