About me
Excitement and enthusiasm would be the description of my immediate reaction to joining a forward thinking movement as, your company. Having been in front of the camera for my entire career, I am thrilled at the prospect to collaborate with a team of diverse creatives to tell a story. In the end, I am nothing if not a story teller. This is the basic human experience. To tell and listen to The Story. It is as simple as, “Once upon a time”, and as effective as “Happily ever after”. As the digital platform continues to evolve in presentation, so does story telling. I look to be part of that trend of evolution.I have been amongst entertainments elite. I have witnessed trends and branding first hand. Being part of a popular cultural phenomena, The Walking Dead, I understand the power of Social Media. I have experienced the wave of viral surge, and have benefited from it’s attention. I am visible to the public, as much for my social media as my personal appearance. I have a story to tell...
Once upon a time, Lew Temple joined up with your organization... and now the rest of the story....
