Spokane’s Justin Frick’s Universe of Music Videos

Early on, Justin Frick was aimless. Then he made a decision that changed his life. Frick, who grew up in Richland, decided to forego his application to community college after his high school graduation about a decade ago. Instead, he took the little money he had and bought a video camera. From then, he’s been growing, building a career filming some of the state’s best musicians — from rapper Macntaj to rocker Vanna Oh! — and creating signature, eye-popping music videos, some of which have garnered hundreds of thousands of views. Frick, who got his first taste of filming with the family handheld camera as a young kid, has done the near-impossible. He’s built a company from scratch that could afford him to live out his creative dreams.
