Rich Wilson

Rich Wilson, founder and filmmaker, decided to create VIBE Media right after college with a clear mission in mind: to help brands #tellyourstory online. With a deep understanding of the digital landscape and a passion for storytelling, I set out to create a media company that would deliver compelling narratives tailored to the unique needs of each brand.

VP & Lead Cinematographer

Forrest Kennedy

Forrest Kennedy, a self proclaimed great cook, a man full of puns and useless trivia facts, verified Costco member….and most importantly a film school graduate and an accomplished colorblind cinematographer, joined the VIBE family in 2017. Forrest brought with him a fresh perspective, infusing our work with his cinematic vision and technical expertise. His passion for creating visually stunning and emotionally resonant content has been instrumental in shaping our distinctive style.

There’s nothing he can’t cut.
