RHYAN ADAMS CEO + CREATIVE DIRECTOR
Since middle school, I’ve always been the friendly, stranger girl with the camera assuring folx, “No, no, no! You’re not in my way. Stay there + pretend I’m not here.” I simply wanted them to see how great they are...from my perspective.
My passion for seeing people win, and desire to help people grow led me to the creation of CINEMAN SHOTS. It is my responsibility to deliver an experience that fuels you to the next level.

HOW IT STARTED...
Born and raised in Columbia, SC, I am both a Southern Belle and a country girl. The oldest of three, I'm an artist, entrepreneur and community leader with international experience in performance and entertainment business. I've earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatre from the University of South Carolina and a Master of Science degree in Entertainment Business from Full Sail University.
You've probably seen me on television, in commercials, acting/singing on stages or goofing off on Instagram. I'm an adventurous traveler who loves dogs, savory food and dark comedy.
Just call me DIrhY, because I keep a personal project in the queue. I love to problem solve and my critical thinking skills are a force to be reckoned with.
Shortly after graduating from Full Sail, the sports industry went on strike. I was a newly hired Executive Recruiter for the entertainment sector of a head hunting firm. The halt in sports meant, a loss of work for me and others. So I met the demand for business plan development.
I took a chance on me by relying on what I knew best - entertainment business and CINEMAN SHOTS was born.
"The biggest risk is not taking any risk.
In a world that's changing quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks."

HOW IT WENT...
The life of an artist is based around gigs and securing contracts. The nature of the entertainment industry is fickle and work is often inconsistent. Although tedious and sometimes dreadful, writing business plans and conducting private tutoring sustained me until I secured a major role touring internationally.
After coming off the road, my go-to performance gigs in Orlando had been filled, and the season's shows had already been cast, but I still needed to eat, so focused on photography and graphic design. Networking expanded to still and video captures of my friends' shows, and I soon began creating media kits and editing performance reels for live entertainers.
I'd guide my friends on how to market themselves and encourage them along the way. Then one of them said, "You should really be charging for this. The knowledge and encouragement you've given is beyond what I knew to ask for. I mean, look at how my company has grown."
They were right.
HOW IT'S GOING...
I have worked with Rhyan and CINEMAN SHOTS for years! The company always does excellent work. It’s really professional, very reliable, and super creative. I highly recommend!
