Growing the sport through photographers, videographers, writers, and creators. 

It has long been my goal to create content that helps document and preserve the history of the game; without this history, the sports greatest moments may simply fade into obscurity. As I have worked towards this goal, I have unfortunately also documented some of paintballs best creators leaving the industry, whether it was groundbreaking videographers like David Quittmann, or major writing publications that are simply no longer are around. In my mind, the game needs as many creative minds as it can garner; somewhere, the next Quittski, Cassidy, or Spohrer is out there, they just may not have the resources to follow their creative vision and dreams. Enter, The Creators Fund.

The Creators Fund is simple; we want to help support and grow the next wave of the sports great creators. Whether that be through travel costs, equipment, mentorship, or access, our goal is to help empower creators to make the content they dream of creating. Iconic Paintball will be providing and funding all the infrastructure to make this project possible and grow the sport through storytelling. Utilizing strategic partnerships with some of the paintball industry's best creative minds, The Creators Fund will also provide unique mentorship and guidance to the sports emerging creative talents.

Have done video / photo content as a side hobby and for fun and would really like to take things to the next level. Being a graphic designer (especially one in the paintball industry) I would love to further my skills and bring them back to eastern Canada 🇨🇦
