My latest project was part-passion, part-branding, part-personal: a short film on my dad's business, Will Steed Homes. When Dad left the Army in 1999, he moved to Granbury, TX, with his wife Meri and their son, yours truly, and began working in residential construction. 🧱

Today, Will Steed Homes Homes only builds custom homes for homeowners with unique ideas and dreams. 🪐

It was an honor, and a great deal of fun, to produce this short film (with short-form deliverables to come!). Fun fact: my first job, ever, was for his electrician; it was insanely hard work, and I learned so much about work and Life running wires and installing fixtures that one summer in 2014!⚡️

I shot this short documentary/cinematic news package of sorts on the Denton Spider-Man ( )a few weeks ago as a part of an assignment for Film Styles at UNT, a companion piece with “Jezzie” that I published here. It was great talking with him, soaking up the positivity and the sun, all of us, sweating our collective butts off. Book Spider-Man for your event today at webspartyservices.com!

Narrative film is a whole different beast; sometimes I feel like I’m picking up a camera for the first time. I’m constantly learning more about this craft every time I go out to shoot, and am filled with gratitude for the entire crew and cast who couldn’t have done a better job (considering how short our turnaround time is).

So here’re some framegrabs from “Normal Houses in Normal Neighborhoods” (working title). Just wrapped today, super stressful but also a super super fun shoot. Stay tuned 📺

Isaiah 55:10-11 — ‘As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.’

Yesterday I shadowed .photography during her engagement shoot with this wonderful couple for whom I’m making a wedding film in August. The actual engagement film is still to come, but this was a fun time hanging out with them at the beautiful Adriatica Village in McKinney, where Jared and Kristen shared their first date. Enjoy this little film in the meantime!

Same-Day Edit BTS

Hype Trailer for @maryamishtiaq ‘s interview with Forbes — we were challenged to shoot and edit this video in one day and the result turned out great 🔥 This project involved: 🎥 Shooting a short interview in the kitchen, with questions based off the creative brief provided by Forbes 📲 Gathering the best-performing content pieces and remixing them as B-roll in the horizontal format by stacking clips side-by-side, showing multiple angles at once ⏱️ Doing all of this in an 8-hour timeframe; this project came on short notice, so much of the work was done beforehand; when it came time to edit, despite how little time we had, we both had a solid idea of the finished result, so there was no need to figure things out on the fly The final result was this short Hype Trailer that played before Maryam’s interview. The goal was to give the interviewers an immediate impression of Who/What/Why, so they could ask interesting questions that let Maryam shine in her own unique way ☀️

PSA for fellow filmmakers Because macOS Sequoia isn’t technically a “supported OS” according to BMD, you can run into issues, which I did. Here’s my workaround BMD says this issue was fixed in the 19.0.1 update but I was still running into the issue. The solution is to turn “Private WiFi Address” to “Fixed.” By default it’s set to “Rotating” which, while it’s a useful extra layer of security, can mess with software that actually references your WiFi address to verify that the software is installed on the same machine. When that address is constantly scrambled, DaVinci Resolve essentially sees a different computer each time A hard lesson was learned — wait 3 months before an OS update!

My Story

Hi! I'm Jacob Steed, the owner and founder of Steed Films. I'm currently studying at Dallas Baptist University, majoring in business, with the hopes of launching my own company one day (well, I've already kinda done that). I love my family of two siblings, two parents, an amazing grandmother and two dogs who I love with all my heart.

I'm a film nerd, music lover, skier, coffee addict, and lover of all kinds of nature. When I'm not out shooting or studying, you can usually catch me hanging out at some of my favorite coffee places talking about all of those things (I promise I'm not a hipster).

On December 9, 1998, I was born to Will and Meri Steed in Fort Lewis, Washington while my Dad was serving in the United States Army. My dad's term was over six months after I was born, and our small family moved to Texas where my Dad started his own business as a homebuilder. Later on, two new members of our family were introduced: AnnaBelle and Luke.

Since Instagram and Facebook hadn't exactly come onto the scene to document our family experiences, we found a different way to tell stories, and that was through filmmaking. As I grew up, my Dad would carry his camera with him and make home movies whenever a birthday or family vacation was on the radar. I was fascinated with this concept: if I pressed record on a video camera, I could later re-live these memories by telling the stories of our life. I was always the one who wanted to watch him edit and make DVDs, and I think I watched them more than anyone else.
