In this episode, we sit down with Romaine Rhoden — a seasoned Jamaican filmmaker, cinematographer, and visual storyteller — to explore his creative journey from the vibrant streets of Jamaica to the diverse landscape of Canada’s film industry.
With over a decade of experience behind the camera, Romaine shares how he rebuilt his network from the ground up after immigrating, the challenges of finding clients in a new country, and how his Jamaican heritage continues to shape his authentic storytelling style. From commercial shoots to documentaries, Romaine opens up about blending artistic vision with technical skill, and how staying grounded in culture, community, and resilience has been key to his success.
Whether you're a fellow creative, an immigrant navigating new territory, or just love a good story told with purpose — this episode offers real insight, inspiration, and a look behind the lens of a life built through storytelling.
"You don’t need to know everyone, or have the largest wealth, or the most knowledge. You just need one thing, to see an opportunity."
