Ryan Lewis (born March 25, 1988) is an American music producer, musician, music video director, photographer, graphic designer, rapper and DJ currently based in Seattle. He is best known for his collaboration with American rapper Macklemore (Ben Haggerty) producing Macklemore & Ryan Lewis — The VS. EP (2009), The Heist (2012) and a handful of other singles. Since the beginning of their collaboration in late 2008, Ryan has produced, recorded, engineered and mixed all of the music, directed music videos ("Same Love", "Thrift Shop", "And We Danced", "Otherside (Remix)"), designed visuals (album art, web design, posters) and DJed the live show.
In a recent mini-documentary, Lewis recalled meeting Macklemore for the first time. "When I met him, it was a really different time. It was less than a year after [2005's] Language of My World had come out. So he had buzz. For me being a young kid, it was very exciting to link with him. The bulk of our original relationship was photo shoots. I became kind of his photographer."[1]

Plot
Four people, two couples, one problem. Intelligently woven together, Decaf is a comic and clever look at the pitfalls and pratfalls of life and love. Blaine has finally found the love of his life in Kate, but the personality mismatch that creates sparks also creates friction.

Although these two couples go through their lives completely unaware that the other pair exists, they walk similar paths along the line between love and loss.
A short film about love, loss and regret... and other funny things
Plot
Large pizza with pepperoni, sausage, green pepper, onions and DEATH! Terror is served up piping hot as the main entrée from Thick'N'Long's Pizza in this teen horror comedy digital video. Other side dishes of humiliation, nudity, hypnotism, sex, teens with bad boundaries, fast cars, sarcastic students, murder, pizza cutters, more sex, group sex and an cameo appearance by Bobby Trendy are delivered in this tale of retribution. The story revolves around Zaffo, a part-time janitor, part-time pizza delivery man who has a history of being abused at work by his employer, Mr Boutiques and by co-worker Aspen and by several customers. A group of teens force Zaffo to engage in homoerotic degradation at the schoolyard, the last straw in Zaffo's level of tolerance. After consulting a psychic (the Amazing Robaire) and getting advice from an outrageously effeminate and gay pizza customer (in a cameo by Bobby Trendy), Zaffo "delivers" payback to his therapist who he forces to cast on spell on the teens. The therapist makes the boys pay for their words and actions. Zaffo then abuses the sarcastic teens one at a time, utilizing hypnosis, trigger words, pizza cutters, and a pas de deux of death to deliver the final reprisal. Zaffo makes an "extra large pie" to satiate his appetite for the ultimate settling of scores. No one escapes the wrath of the disgruntled employee or the terror he serves one slice at a time. Whether it be from the dumpster, on the playground, with a naked therapist in his office or in an old, dilapidated shack, Zaffo will show everyone what it feels like to be HUMILIATED. Bon apetit!

Plot
The Johnna Man is a story of love, loss, grief, friendship and unnecessary cruelty to goldfish, as told by Chris Riseborough - a late twenty-something comedy writer who spends his days adrift in a sea of self involvement and whiskey. On the day that Chris' estranged wife, Tilly, informs him of her intention to file for a divorce, Chris doesn't think that the day could get any worse. That is until he learns that his closest childhood friend, John Naylor (AKA The Johnna Man) has become very estranged indeed. Terminally So. When Chris returns to his hometown of Brighton in order to pay his last respects he is once again brought face to face with the friends that he left behind. Amongst them are Pete and Ian, a drink & drug orientated Laurel & Hardy, Nessa, a dizzy but loveable psuedo hippy, Steph, the late Johnna's oft-overlooked girlfriend, and Ryan, a misanthropic, New York dwelling architect who "makes Edmund Blackadder look like Mary Poppins". Also present in this group of old friends is the other object of Chris' misery - Tilly. Over the next three days, there will be laughter, tears, and lavatory-dwelling goldfish as the gang come to celebrate the passing of one of their closest friends... The Johnna Man.
A story of grief, friendship, love and unnecessary cruelty to goldfish...
Was that last drink a trigger of a gun
Fall asleep cold
Well I guess life is never any fun
With no one to hold.
Will you be there in the morning?
Will you be there in the morning?
Did you think alcohol would patch you up
Ease all the pain
Well I guess we'll never know, we'll never know
What could have been today.
Will you be there in the morning?
We told you it's worth the fight
Will you be there in the morning?
Will you be there in the morning?
We told you it's worth the fight
We told you it's worth the fight
Catch your breath, you're only 21
You won't be there in the morning
Catch your breath, you're not the only one.
Catch your breath, you're only 21
You won't be there in the morning
You're not the only one.
Will you be there in the morning?

I told you it's worth the fight.
