Why be basic when you can be ?

By Hannah Ball From making videos in high school to traveling the world for clients, one 2007 Fenton High School graduate followed his passion. Luke McKay, 30, now lives in Flushing with his wife, but frequently travels to film videos and make content for clients of Black Pine Films. He’s traveled to Germany and Great Britain, and was recently in Barcelona, Spain filming for an international conference. He began making videos in middle school and furthered his passion by taking TV production classes at Fenton High School. He also makes videos for The Freedom Center. “It wasn’t until winning a short film contest in the Michigan Interscholastic Press Association did I begin truly planning how to make a career of video and cinematography,” he said. His job goes beyond videos. This Fenton graduate is now the creative director of Black Pine Films, which was founded by his friend, Taylor Hurley, who also graduated from Fenton.

See VIDEOGRAPHER on 20B

(Above) Taylor Hurley, founder of Black Pine Films, and Luke McKay (right), creative director, both graduated from Fenton High School. Together, they have more than 14 years of experience in the videography marketing business. They specialize in video production, photography, website design and more. They often work with celebrities such as athletes and CEOs. Submitted photos

VIDEOGRAPHERContinued from Page 19BMcKay assisted on making a rap music video in 2011 with Hurley and Brian Hecox. The video, “Go Hard,” featured Ionia rapper Joe Buys and was shot in Fenton High School. Both Taylor and McKay attended Full Sail University in Orlando, Florida. “I started my career focused solely on video and cinematography but that

changed over time as I grew my own business and started to delve into the world of marketing and content creation,” he said. “We do business in all 50 states and even travel internationally for our work. My job as creative director for Black Pine Films centers around learning about the client’s business or story and creating content that helps communicate that with their customers, donors, and or fans.” This content ranges from photos and videos to graphics and more. The website, blackpinefilms.com, offers full-service production, website design, and social media marketing as well. It has samples of photography for cars, huge football stadiums, engineering, sports and more, as well as video work. The best part of McKay’s job is being able to create his own path. “I’ve never been much of a follower and being both a business owner and a creator allows me to choose my own direction. Meeting professional athletes and celebrities is pretty cool, too,” he said. These celebrities include Fortune 500 CEOs Tim Cook of Apple, the NuCore Steel’s CEO, John Ferriola, who works with the White House on the economic council, politicians at the local and national level, Matt Stafford from the Lions, Antonio Brown from the Steelers, Chase Winovich from the Patriots, Braxton Miller from the Texans and the Eagles, and Josh Martin from the New York Jets. The hardest part of his job is eliminating self-doubt. “When big opportunities present themselves, it’s easy for doubt to creep in. Knowing that you were given the opportunity for a reason and believing that you can handle it is a large challenge at times,” he said. Attending Fenton schools helped shape McKay into the person he is today, and he said he owes a “huge debt of gratitude” to all the teachers and staff. “I owe a huge thank you to people like Mr. Meade for teaching me how to be a better storyteller and writer and a great group of people — James Neihouse, Keith Smith, Adam Cooke, Chad Taylor, and Luke Hartley — for helping me grow as a cinematographer,” he said. When asked what advice he would give recent high school graduates, McKay said, “We’re all given a chance to chart our own course in life, just remember that if your true north is pointing toward God, family, and the truth your life will always end up where it should.”

We’re all given a chance to chart our own course in life, just remember that if your true north is pointing toward God, family, and the truth your life will always end up where it should.’’Luke McKay, Fenton High School graduate
