Billy Preston: That's The Way God Planned It
Executive Producer
With his signature gospel sound on the Hammond B3, Billy Preston doublehandedly elevated the greatest artists of his time – from the Beatles to the Rolling Stones, from Aretha Franklin to Eric Clapton, from Ray Charles to Barbra Streisand to Sly and the Family Stone. In our film, we explore Billy's career and influence on generations of musicians, as he scored several number one hits of his own and became one of the most sought-after musicians in the world. He did all of this as a soul divided -- by his deep roots in the church, in constant conflict with his identity as a gay Black man, searching for a family of his own that would accept him for who he was.

The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart
Executive Producer
Documental que narra los triunfos y obstáculos de los hermanos Barry, Maurice y Robin Gibb, también conocidos mundialmente como The Bee Gees. El icónico trío, que alcanzó la fama temprana en la década de 1960, pasó a escribir más de 1.000 canciones, incluidos veinte éxitos número uno a lo largo de su histórica carrera. Esta película sigue el ascenso meteórico de The Bee Gee mientras cabalgaban por las cimas de la fama y la fortuna, negociaban los caprichos del negocio de la música en constante cambio y navegaban por las complejidades de trabajar tan íntimamente junto a la familia. La historia nos lleva desde su infancia en la Australia de los años 50 hasta el crisol artístico del Londres de los 60 y la costa bañada por el sol de Miami, Florida. La banda creó un sonido distinto con su armonización de tres partes, formando sus voces melódicas un nuevo tipo de instrumento.
