Owwwwwww. First off: new website, who dis? To anyone who has ever asked, “Where are your films?”, you are now taken care of. Months of digital construction resulted in our spacious home at xynn.co. Michael Chacon on sicko mode.

Second, I did it again. I just blew my own mind. Mi hermano Oro Padron and I captured a pathetic amount of timelapses, hyperlapses, and drone goodies at Miami Beach, four days straight. Weather patterns literally could not have been better.

What ensues is a storyboard for our future Miami movie. Y’know, a lookbook on composition, color direction, and narrative. So as you eat Story 79, imagine it in motion. What you are witnessing is not fire, it is lava. See what I did there?

Dimelo. Have you ever seen Miami like this? En serio, that detail.

Beauty so murderous, it must be fake. Birdie, strike a pose for me.

That zoom/rotate blur and warm film grain got me mind trippin’.

Tilt-shift, I would like to introduce you to marvelous Miami Beach.

How you like those palm tree shadows? Droning, it has whip appeal.

7K ProRes 422 stills. Aerial perspectives, it changes my perspective.

Finding A Way

To Stay Out of My Way

Building our new website over these months took me back to the beginning. When I was this naive teenager with a camera on the streets of downtown Miami. Just trying to find my way, navigating life’s currents. Naturally present, oblivious to worry.

That teenager did not foresee growing this company to where it is now. Consistency has its setbacks at times. To overcome them and remain standing is an alluring feeling. I am so grateful for my team and support system. Together, we are making history.

For the launch of our new xt. website, it is only right that I showcase my respect for the city that raised me up. Although New York is now my primary residence, I will always be in love with Miami, thankful for the wisdom it has given me. LFG.
