In the world of AI advancements and debate over whether or not it’s the right choice for companies to abandon their human workers in favor of artificial intelligence, Houston filmmaker and “Masquerade” producer Justin Williams sees the value in keeping the authenticity that humans provide.
In a wide-ranging roundtable sit-down on The Roselyn Omaka Show, Justin argued that audiences are presented with a choice of the content they want to support; authentic or artificial.
With no formal education in filmmaking and a background playing football in Texas, Utah, and California, dedication to the craft, sweat equity, and no shortcuts are the foundational pillars of which he has based his career on.
Using these pillars with the motivation of providing for his family, Justin produced his first movie “Deception” in 2022, which is available to stream on Tubi and received rave reviews from the independent film community.
