I had the tremendous good fortune to be in fourth grade elementary with Brandon Briggs, aka the Grand Incredible DJ BrandNew; and I have the tremendous honor of being entrusted with sharing his grand incredible story with the world.

 

The journey of making this film and enjoying spending time in the presence of a music industry icon and childhood friend was extremely bittersweet as Brandon lost his lengthy battle with sarcoma cancer during the making of this film.

 

The camera I was holding was suddenly weighed down by grief in the heaviest way, and it has been humbling and heartbreaking, to complete this journey without him.

 

My greatest hope is that as his friend and as a filmmaker I have done his grand incredible story the justice it so deserves, and that his beautiful family will be able to share this with the world forever.
