SKUNK Adds Director Keenan Wetzel

SKUNK announces the signing of director Keenan Wetzel. Growing up in the Detroit area, Keenan had two passions: Basketball and Film. From a young age,Keenan would accompany his mother to the public access television station where she volunteered, and take notes from the station veterans about the magic of VHS recording.

As he grew older, he continued his love for filmmaking by creating music videos starring his somewhat willing younger brother. A unique combination of art kid and athlete growing up, his two passions met at Michigan State University wheren Keenan studied film and played varsity basketball for four years, including a Final Four trip his senior year. After graduating, Keenan started his directing career working in the local Detroit market, where he’s done work for, Toyota, Ford and Firestone. On his most recent shoot for Cadillac a friend of SKUNK was shooting stills and was impressed with Keenan's ingenuity.

He introduced Keenan to the SKUNK family and the rest is history.

Matt Factor of SKUNK says, " we are moved by Keenan's body of work for such ayoung filmmaker. His experience as a division one athlete reverberates through his films which explorethe human experience; overcoming hardship, joy, collaboration, motivation, pride and self-exploration."Keenan is currently in post-production on his first feature-length documentary.Keenan Wetzels’s reel can be viewed here.
