ABOUT ME

From writing short stories in grade school to penning screenplays at work during his lunch breaks, Markell's knack for storytelling has always been apparent. As a youngster he walked around with a Hi-8mm camcorder attached to his hand, staging and filming family and friends acting out scenes from various films. As he grew older his pastime transformed into passion. In 2007 he started taking jobs as a production assistant and by 2011 was working as a full-fledged camera operator, learning his way around the set. Some notable projects include: ESPN specials "Road to Redemption," a documentary on the NBA's Dallas Mavericks and "30/30: Without Bias"; and BET's "American Gangsters" special on Cornell Jones. As a director, Spivey thrives to be authentic, to tell honest stories with resonant themes which will connect with his audience. Markell Spivey studied mass communications at Prince George's Community College in Maryland and received his Certificate of Cinematography from the New York University School of Continuing and professional Studies.
