Would Works Artisan Ali Jumps Behind the Camera
Star artisan Ali quickly proved himself to be a skilled finisher with a keen eye for detail so we weren't too surprised to learn he also has a talent for cinematography.
Originally from Somalia, he spent years in refugee camps before he was able to immigrate to Los Angeles. With a passion for documentary film making, Ali was particularly interested in Los Angeles for its world–renowned film industry. Upon moving here he started the Ubog Production Company and one of his goals while at Would Works was to pay for film equipment. Ali brought his camera to the workshop and made this short advertisement for our boards. He is indeed a multitalented artist. Thank you Ali!
