He was invited to pitch the feature film project based on the short film at Frontières Market and Forum in Montreal.
He began his career directing music videos in the Chicago hip-hop scene for artists like Saba, Towkio, and Chance the Rapper. Campbell made his feature film directorial debut with the independent feature DimLand (2021) which was distributed by Gravitas Ventures and is available to stream on Amazon Prime and Paramount+.
