December 2020 - On our last trip to the UFC's Fight Island, one of the short projects we help produce was seemed to be a one off project for the UFC called "The Din Diaries", which followed former UFC welterweight and now MMA coach, Din Thomas on his journey to Fight Island in Abu Dhabi. The project was produced by the First Row Films team.
I had opportunity to not only DP that episode, but edit it as well and it was released back in September. The response was good enough for the UFC to ask for another episode which the FRF crew delivered.
The second episode of the UFC's The Din Diaries, followed coach Din and his fighter, Gillian Robertson has they road tripped from Florida to South Carolina to train with Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson, one the the UFC's elite strikers at the welterweight division.
Pandemic be damned, the FRF crew went out and captured some great material in a short amount of time. There is even a surprise appearance by Shaquille O'neil!
