The Founder and creative visionary behind the Nova Initia concept is Andrew Smith, who serves under the job title of Creative Director. Mr. Smith’s interest in the visual arts traces all the way back to his early childhood - with his mother constantly pushing him towards his dream of gracing the silver screen. He would initially set out on a path towards being an actor, attending the renowned John Robert Powers acting school as a teenager. Mr. Smith then made the transition to behind the camera - where he would discover his true passion for filmmaking and film theory. This would culminate in him earning a B.A. in Visual & Performing Arts from Johnson C. Smith University in 2015, with a concentration in film. Mr. Smith would eventually round out his skill set by developing proficiency in post-production editing. He now possesses an impressive versatility within the filmmaking field; and, having worked in the industry since 2011, is the ideal person to lead our team. His responsibilities with Nova Initia include steering day-to-day operations, editing, financial management, and creative leadership. He loves writing short stories, poetry, music, and more in his free time, and enjoys giving back to his native Maryland community in any way he can.

Hello, my name is Paul Garber and I am an award-winning journalist with 20 years of experience and a lover of films going back even longer than that. I was able join my two passions starting in 2008, when I was named the Winston-Salem Journal's first full-time multimedia reporter. Since then I have created short films for the Web based on a variety of topics, including breaking news videos as well as short explanatory films. I usually worked on next-day deadlines and was both the videographer and editor for stories that often accompanied print coverage, so I know what it is like to do quality work on deadline. I filmed appearances by Barack Obama three times, and have been on the riser for many other political appearances including such figures as Joe Biden, John McCain and Sarah Palin. Also have 2 years public radio experience.
