Echo Chamber - 323 - Part Two (The Stix)
You can hear ‘Part One’ of this week’s episode, HERE!!!
YO, I have been eagerly waiting to drop this one, people, trust me! In 'Part TWO' of this week's @EchoChamberFP, we're coming with crazy insight!!!
It's all thanks to Kelli McNeil-Yellen, who came with this gripping crime story, and hooked up a sit-down with the writer / director, who's basically an architect. He's laid the foundation for a sprawling universe, so, being able to break that down, find out the impetus for it all, and get into the implementation. At its core is community, and building an infrastructure, but you should hear it for yourselves!!!
'The Stix' is written & directed by Jaron Lockridge. Narcotics investigators (Everett Anderson, Nichole Tate-Jackson, John Dylan Atkins & Jeff Haltom) with a sheriff's office in rural West Tennessee pursue a local kingpin (Darnail Lanton) who's dealing with mutiny within his organization.

Writer, Director, Producer, Editor, Cinematographer, Actor
Growing up in Bolivar, Tennessee, a small town 45 minutes east of Memphis, Jaron became interested in filmmaking as a high school sophomore in 2002. Believing a career in Hollywood was nothing more than a far-fetched dream, Jaron graduated the police academy in 2010 and became a commissioned peace officer in the State of Tennessee in 2010. As an outlet from the stressors of the job, Jaron began writing again and in 2016, he started his production company, Misguided Perceptions Media Group. With no formal training or film schooling, he began to teach himself how to produce independent films, primarily self-financing his films, saving his paychecks from his job as a police officer. He has since produced 11 feature films such as Betray, The Reaper Man, & Down Bad: Life In The Hood. He believes his niche is telling human stories from an authentic perspective using his experiences of working the streets in uniform as a police officer. His latest film, The Stix, is a promise fulfilled to a close friend and former cast member, whom the film is dedicated to.
