Atlanta and Austin-based Fokus Firm is a boundary-defying, creative content media company founded in

2012 to bridge the gap between the creative and business worlds by bringing in young, talented people

and engaging them in meaningful community and business building through music and lifestyle. Less

than a decade later, Fokus Firm has become an international specialty media solution powerhouse that

provides a full range of Branding, Video Production, Consulting, and Storytelling services to a diverse

range of international clientele and specialized for multicultural and untapped markets.

Fokus Firm is driven by the rare synergy of founders Brian Westbrook and James Hastings, whose

combined experience and acumen in multimedia production, business, and the unique challenges faced

by aspiring young artists. Their earliest investment was a 16-year-old, aspiring rapper whom Westbrook

and Hastings talked out of the street life and into focusing on his music instead. After a year of

development and recording, the young man was shot six times during an attempted robbery of a jewelry

store. Haunted by the funeral and their young protégé’s desperation to get noticed and make a living,

Westbrook and Hastings made it their personal mission to help creatives and artists access financially

viable means of showcasing their talents.

With multiple award-winning projects and work showcased at major industry events, Fokus Firm is

cultivating the talents and success of individuals, organizations, and businesses by creating unique,

powerful messaging to reach far-ranging audiences for commercial and artistic initiatives. The company

has partnerships with highly influential writers, directors, and other creative industry leaders dedicated

to innovative multimedia media products for single individuals all the way to aspiring Fortune 500

companies.
