In this powerful episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex sits down with Osiris Pollock—better known as Grizzly Films (@grizzly_films)—a Miami-based filmmaker and photographer who's worked with major artists like Rick Ross, Wale, and more. 🎥
But his journey didn’t start on a movie set. It began with a football dream that came to a sudden halt and a leap of faith after walking out of a hospital job. This episode is all about how Osiris went from uncertainty to building a thriving business doing what he loves—capturing powerful visuals and storytelling through his lens.
