Kaapsemedia is a production house which started in 2016 and focuses on the media side of things as in short films, music videos interviews, dance clips and anything you need visually they've got you covered.
Their D.O.P is Mr Ryan Ray, who operates the camera. He captures the frame and directs as well "I'm the main guy" he adds. Mr Winston is their director of Kaapsemedia '"all the jobs comes through me" and they sit down draft up a proposal and discuss it with the team. Mr Leroy Samuels role in Kaapsemedia is not only choreographing but he also getting all the visuals and visions that they need to bring forward "if you bring us an idea, we'll sit down and brainstorm and get our product".
The journey began when they first enrolled at Media Village based in Retreat Cape Town at Every Nations Church. From thee they came to an agreement that as students, they would start up a production house. This got them to a place where they could create music videos for themselves and set them on a path to finding themselves. It led them to a place where they could shoot short films on their own "it took us to another level" said Ryan.
Their first short film released was "Spray" while they were still students back in 2016 and they have their latest one being released now called "Stick" which could be checked out on Kaapsemedia on their Youtube channel. For 2018 thus far they've only produced and shot things that came from their ideas. With the dance clips, music videos and films with people that they know personally. They freshly collaborated with a clothing line from Durban called " A N" clothing and now they are collaborating with a female artist from Durban called Nelz, who was nominated for best female nominations in the hip hop category. As a fresh start they are merging between Cape Town and Durban right now. Nelz will be flying down in 2 weeks and this will be Kaapsemedia's first music video. It's going to be a VIBE, so watch the space!
"It's not about the visuals or the editing or being beautiful in front of the camera, it's about the experience and that's the one thing I can strive when we get into the space of being creative. It's beyond just getting the video done. That 6-7 hours that you are on set is indescribable" says Mr Samuels.
They've got a good team standing behind them to create the best that has yet to be seen.
