We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Herberson Paul. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Herberson below.
Herberson , appreciate you joining us today. Going back to the beginning – how did you come up with the idea in the first place?
The idea came to mind when I was performing at a poetry club. I seen a photographer/videographer offering his services to the artists that was performing. The person I was with at the time was also intrigued. I than was reminded by an old associate of mine of his production company. He not only built up his brand but also work with celebrities, got married and had a family. I was truly inspired because it seemed peaceful, he’s well respected and he also helps out the community. He even has a testimony. His business failed but he didn’t give up. So, After my performance I looked into investing into a camera(Mirrorless Sony Alpha 6600). I than bought other items for it such as green screen, different color backgrounds, two studio lights and a gymbal by a old friend. I was really happy, Thankful for his aid. Truly grateful. The name King Paul production was given to me by others when I was trying to help the community. I said this ain’t nobody but GOD and that’s how the production company came to be.
Herberson , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
Hello, I’m Herberson Paul. A 27 year old male that was born in Orlando, Fl. Both of my parents came from Haiti. I’m the first generation haitian/American out of four(well, technically more than seven)from my father side and one on my mothers side. I got into this business after noticing how EVERYONE needs a photographer/videographer. I love to capture the moment and it also allows me to network with the businesses that truly interest me. Such as real estate, construction sites, weddings and sometimes events. Having an I9 contract with a company depending on the timeframe will allow me to get consistent income. The bigger the company gets, the bigger my employment for others will expand. I can stand on what I was planning for years which is spreading the word of GOD to others while being a positive influence to others especially children
How about pivoting – can you share the story of a time you’ve had to pivot?
I grew up an athlete. First, I started playing in the street with friends than a mentor of mine put me in boxing. I started as a child, I grew into it but wasn’t disciplined. I was influenced by my environment which made me ignorant and arrogant. I stopped for a while than went back into it at 18 years old. I kept being inconsistent cause of things that was going on around me and lost my passion for it. I still have love for the sport and still practiced it and sparred a couple pros and started training others for a little while after completely putting up my gloves. I than went on to pursue a different career.
Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?
Yes, my mission is to become truly wealthy and do everything that I said I was going to do.
