Travis Nesbitt Is s photographer, videographer and producer based in Edmonton, Alberta. He Began To develop his eye for branding, storytelling and creation through his work with the rock band Social Code (Interscope/Universal). As the front man of this band, Travis built the visuals that helped them achieve Top 10 Rock Songs, Tours With Bands Like The Used And Good Charlotte, And Significant Presence On Much Music. He also fronted the LA band Siiines (Live Nation). After his performing days, Travis began to sink more and more into his camera. It began with design and photography, but after realizing the work he had done with his own acts could compete on a global level Travis began to accept work from other artists who were eager to have Travis’ unequalled creativity.
His very first video (Lexi Strate – Antidote) was immediately added to Much Music and from there something clicked and he became one of the busiest and highly regarded indie directors in Canada. His Clients Now Include Dan Davidson (2 Top 20S On Cmt), Clayton Bellamy Of The Road Hammers (Anthem Entertainment), Jess Moskaluke (Mdm Recordings), Black Mountain Whisky Rebellion (Mdm Recordings), Bobby Wills (Mdm Recordings), Brett Kissel (Warner Music), Iamhill (Juno Nominated), Our Lady Peace, The Washboard Union and many others. Travis has also been approached to do work for Naked And Famous Denim, Triumph Motorcycles and Levis.
While DBK Films is completely adaptable to project style needs, Travis’ personal cinematography style is worth noting.
