Christian Carranza: Content Creation Specialist.
Christian Carranza is a year old full-time Cinematographer and Photographer. He went to college for several years, bouncing around from major to major. During his time at Community College, he never truly felt like he was on the right path. While in college, he began working in a store and used Youtube to record his journey. He quickly became obsessed with learning everything he could about cameras, editing, and creating. He found a sense of purpose and enjoyment, making weekly videos. It was not long before Christian knew his passion was behind the lens. Fast forward a few more years, and you will find Christian working behind the lens or editing for various professionals across many fields, including some of the biggest names in the fitness space.
