Meet Lamont Jackson

From the South Side to the Studio – The Journey of a Visionary

Lamont Jackson is a professional cinematographer, creative director, and YouTube content creator based in El Paso, Texas. Born and raised on the South Side of Chicago, Lamont is a second-generation barber who built his name through grit, hustle, and a relentless passion for storytelling.

After serving nearly 13 years in the U.S. Army and completing several overseas deployments, Lamont transitioned into entrepreneurship and content creation. He went on to earn his Bachelor of Science in Digital Cinematography from Full Sail University, turning his hands-on experience into high-level visuals for real people, real brands, and real impact.

Today, he operates Legacy Studio — a multi-purpose creative space where brands, barbers, and storytellers come to elevate their message through film, audio, and content strategy.

Experience

Creative Director | Cinematographer | Podcast Producer

​

I specialize in bringing ideas to life through visual content, podcast production, and branded storytelling. As the founder of Legacy Studio, I lead projects across film, commercial campaigns, and performance-based shows. I create content that looks premium, feels intentional, and connects with real audiences.

What I Do

 

  • Creative Direction — Developing concepts, planning shoots, and leading visual execution across multi-platform projects

  • Cinematography — Directing and shooting short films, interviews, commercials, and social content with a cinematic approach

  • Podcast Production — Executive producer and host of The Libations Podcast and visual producer of Off Top, both shot in-studio with professional multi-camera setups

  • Content Packages — Offering monthly video plans for creators, businesses, and public figures who need ongoing branded content

  • Studio Services — Running Legacy Studio as a production-ready space for podcasts, interviews, and client visuals

Clients and collaborators come to me for high-quality visuals, clean execution, and creative leadership. Whether you’re a brand, artist, or business, I help shape content that reflects your message and moves with intention.

​

I also work with a trusted team of editors, photographers, and videographers. Legacy Studio operates as a scalable, full-service production company, equipped to handle everything from short-form reels to full commercial campaigns.
