Welcome to the AP Creative Community Newsletter!
Every other week, I feature creators from the community through our Creator Spotlight. 🙌 Join the community and submit your work through the Discord link here for a chance to be featured! I highlight one film, one photograph, and one video postcard. 📸 This Creator Spotlight is here to bring more exposure to creators, encourage others to tap into their talents, and build a community of creatives.🗺 When I’m not highlighting creators, I share actionable tips, honest answers, and valuable insights to help you on your creative journey.
New issues hit your inbox every Sunday. Glad you’re here. 🤝

Each month I give away gear to help creators level up and this month’s giveaway was a drone. 🎁 I asked y’all to share with me how this drone would level up your storytelling. This comment really stood out to me—what you're doing is incredible. Fueling the younger generation of talent is something I’m passionate about, so seeing your journey is truly inspiring. 👏
Thank you everyone for commenting and sharing your stories! 🙏 Stay tuned for next month’s giveaway, exclusively through the APCC Newsletter & Discord Community. 🗺
It's been banger after banger this year! 💥 And this week's Creators have lifted the bar yet again. There is clearly no shortage of talent out there in the world and you all have proven that to me (and hopefully yourselves) every week. Keep at it and keep going.💪
"From the eldest to the youngest (and the twenty-somethings)" by @prj48 🎓Another banger from one of our APCC members, Julie! 😮💨 Despite the fact that this film is dedicated to her younger sister, I find that the message pertains to what so many young creators (and those of us who are younger siblings) can relate to. The shots in this feel cinematic, intentional and tell a story all by themselves even without her narrative— which in and of itself is powerful in its own way. 🫂
Watch the film on YouTube here and drop your feedback about this submission in the Discord thread here.
“BTS VIDEO CLIP” by @luzcastroph 🎞 Yo these bring me back to a time when I'd be on set and capturing the BTS of a shoot I'm directing. 🎬 The composition of the shot in that first pic is so dope, you have a great eye in capturing the focal points while doing justice to its environment. 😎 Keep it up!
Check out the submission in the Discord thread here and share your thoughts!
Winter Garden, FL by @rh585 🌴 This feels like summer in a video postcard. ☀️ I could almost see this being an intro shot of a summer feel-good movie! Dope work. 🫡
Check out the submission and submit your feedback in our Discord thread here.
That is it for this week y'all! Don't forget to tune in next week to some more tips and tricks, especially since I have a lot of things cooking for y'all in this community. 🌎 In the meantime though, keep submitting your work in the Discord so I can see what you've been working on too! Happy creating.✌️
