Praheme was born and raised in Richmond, where he discovered his love for directing. His first feature, Troop 491: The Adventures of the Muddy Lions, was shot here using mostly local talent and ran at Movieland for 5 weeks. Since then, he’s moved to LA, where he’s planning for his next film. We talk about:
– Where his name came from
– How he got inspired to make movies
– The success of Muddy Lions
– The work he’s done since then
– Managing a cannabis business in LA
– His next feature project
