Forrest (he/they) creates work that inspires actionable change and amplifies underrepresented voices. He develops sensory-rich, emotionally immersive media that slows down audiences and invites them to go inwards. Sound is his entry point into storytelling and he uses this often under-utilized power to elevate productions.
With a background in documentary film editing focused on climate action and social justice impact, Forrest has had work featured in The National Geographic, at Sundance, Telluride, and over 30+ international film festivals.
Forrest is trans, queer and neurodivergent. These identities and experiences deeply inform how he shows up in the world and as a story facilitator. He believes that creating space for divergent folks in media can help us rewrite and reroute our collective imagination.
“When Forrest’s music was cut in— was the moment it became a film.”
“That was the best sound design first pass I’ve ever listened to.”
Don’t let sound be the reason that your film gets lost. Onboarding a post sound specialist with extra-sensory perception is advised.
Let’s navigate this sonic wilderness together!
