Talents: Photography, Videography, and Graphic Design.

About Raza-Ry: "A self-taught jack of all trades. Learned how to do these different tasks to run my clothing line simply because they needed to be done. Now all my art has branched off into different entities that thrive off of my creativity and passion and I am becoming successful because of it. It's overwhelming sometimes how fast things have progressed through the people I meet and love my work but, it feels good when people that have been doing these things longer than I've been alive enjoy my work and want to work with me. I'm excited too where everything will take me and I invite anyone to follow myself and my team on our journey."
Current/Upcoming Projects?: "Currently I am directing two music videos. One with American Idol contestant Ju'Not for his track that will be on BET's mix tape for their "Wrap It Up" campaign. The other is for artist Brandon Charles for his first ever video for his mix tape "Say Grace". I am working with other directors on my film team for other music videos. I'm planning a couple more photo shoots for this summer, one with none other than the lovely Amber Rayne. My team and I are working on the Fall release and collaborations with different artists for Unique And Uncontemporary. We'll possibly be having a third Pop Up Shop before the summer ends. Other than photo, video, and design projects for various clients that's all I can remember right now as you can see there's A LOT."

Name: Dante Bailey
Specialty/Talent(s): Film Director | Editor | Cinematographer | Photographer
Affiliation(s): Knowledgeable Entertainment, Cool Kids Forever Films, Bowie State University
Brief description of yourself and your craft: "What
My Partner (Clive Mutepuka) & I Strive to do is create cinematic
based film productions & candid introspective photography
productions that are are aesthetically pleasing to the eye while at the
same carrying enough substance that they may cause our viewers to
reflect upon themselves, their communities, and the everyday issues that
may effect them directly or indirectly in the world we live in today.
Ultimately we like like to joke around and say that we want to "Trick"
people into thinking outside of the box. If we are given an opportunity
to think for ourselves then we will soon discover just how much
potential we actually have to be great."
Current/Upcoming Projects?: "This past year
for us as Knowledgeable Ent. has been very slow. We have been going
through somewhat of a transition period in moving away from music videos
and moving into short films, documentaries, commercials, etc. With that
being said, we do have a few more music videos coming up for the end of
the summer as well as a psa/commercial a full documentary &
potentially a few more short films."
"There are probably too many to list
but the primary target Project list as of now is as seen below:"
Lyriciss- "Big Gold Chain" Official Music Video
Darren Hannible- "Lean On You" Official Music Video
His Rise, His Fall, His Victory: The Cornelius McDonald Jr. Story (Documentary)
