Kendrick Disch bio picture

Thanks for checking out Kendrickdisch.com!

kendrick /@/ kendrickdisch.com   Studio: 404-939-3123

I grew up in a creative/entrepreneurial household in Arkansas but my adventurous nature has taken me all over North America including lengthy layovers in the deserts of New Mexico, the colonial mountain towns of central Mexico, the sunny beaches of the Yucatan Peninsula and the lobster villages on the coast of Maine. I've documented my exploration of Mexico's places and people in a book called "A Glimpse of Mexico". I'm lucky enough to see my photography featured by The Santa Fe Photography Workshops, The Maine Media Workshops, The Music Hall Concerts, Quest Magazine and Student Filmmakers Magazine.

As a video producer/director, I strive to create compelling stories. I've made documentaries, short films, commercials, various music promo materials including live concert dvds and an interview series called Bands and Their Vans. I spent 4 crazy years running the jumbo video boards and instant replay equipment for the University of Arkansas Athletics department and for 5 years I shared my expertise with faculty and students as a video support specialist at the Multimedia Resource Center.

I'm currently based in Atlanta, GA and look forward to chatting with you about your creative and technical needs.

You can find me other places on the net as well!

Carbohydrate Supplement Circa 1963

Today I found myself assisting one of my classmates on a photoshoot in this old building we found in Southeast Atlanta.

Inside the building were all these old canisters labeled Civil Defense Carbohydrate Supplement. Some were rusted out and empty.

Some were still sealed up and not rusted. So I was pretty curious about what a...
