Conversations with Antonio Bolds

Today we’d like to introduce you to Antonio Bolds.

Hi Antonio, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
My Name Is Antonio Bolds, Mostly Known As Yayo. I Started Doing Videography/Photography About 5-6 Years Ago, Well Atleast Taking It Seriously. I First Picked A Camera Just Going Around With My Brother Jermaine Faison Better Known As DJ Offest As He DJ’d His Events. It Start As Just Something To Do. Years Later I Decided To Try Out Recording Music Videos, Thats What Changed My Love Of It All. The More And More I Began To Record The More Fun It Became. After 3-4 Years Of Doing Only Music Videos, I Took A Chance At Sports. Sports Are Now One Of My Most Favorite To Record. The Love And Amazing Energy That The Players Show You For Just Coming Out And Giving Them More Of A Chance To Be Seen Is Second To None. Long County Blue Tide Is Ludowici, Ga Has Made My Love For Recording Sports Unbelievable. Coach Ricardo Welcomed Me With Open Arms And The Players Are Amazing. I’ve Gotten Into Recording Content For Social Media, My Friend Mike Murk Also Know As Bird Man Jenkins On Social Media, Has Pushed Me To Become Better At What I Do. He Is One Of The Reasons I Keep Going. In 2025 I Decided To Enter College For Digital Cinematography At Full Sail University. It’s Been An Amazing Journey Up To This Point. In Less Than 3 Months I Will Be A Graduate Of Full Sail University. Getting Through College Has Not Been A Breeze, But My Kids Braylen (16) And Zamaria (5) Are The Reason I Continue Pushing Through. I’ve Recently Gotten Into Drone Flying And I’ve Been Teaching It To My 5 Year Hoping Maybe One Day She Will Join Me Throughout The Rest Of My Journey. I Cant Wait To See What The Future Holds For Me And My Company.

Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I’ve Had Very Fee Struggles Honestly, My Main Struggle Is Still Dealing With My Fathers Death After Almost 10 Years. Thats What Really Changed My Outlook On Life. It’s Made Me Cherish Everything And Every Second Of Life.

Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
I Specialize In Sports Content, Social Media Content, Drone Flying, Weddings, And Music Videos. Over The Years I’ve Come To Not Like Music Videos As Much And Sports Have Become My Main Focus. Just Being Able To Build Up A Platform To Help These Kids Get To College Gives Me A Real Sense Of Purpose. I’ve Done Concerts For A Few Artist Over The Years Such As, YK Neice, Boston Richey, GoldenBoy CountUp, HardNard, DiamondTheBody, Etc. My Love And Passion For Videography, Photography, And Cinematography Is Most Definitely Second To None. I’m Always Ready To Pick Up One Of My Cameras Or Drones And Hit Record.

What’s next?
My Maine Goal Is To Build My Social Media And Real World Connections Up To The Point That I Can Get Several Kids Seen By College Coaches To Help Get Them To The Next Level. Giving Them Opportunities To Continue Chasing Their Dreams At The Next Level.
