Meet Leatrice Hunt III | Audio Engineer , Videographer , Boxer/Coach

We had the good fortune of connecting with Leatrice Hunt III and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Leatrice, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
To have a chance of the sky being the limit. When you work for corporations or other businesses there is a yearly salary or set pay for task. 250k for a years salary is appealing to anyone. The trick is it will be just that, 250k a year with maybe a pay raise if they deem you valuable when they provide an evaluation of your time with the company. With owning your own business you can shoot for the stars and choose if you want to make that 250k in a year or make 250k everyday of the week. I have no limits on what can be produced from something I own. I can make choices that elevate me and the people I care about which is the ultimate goal.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Graduating from college for Audio Engineering & Audio Visual had gave me tons of insight on everything around the field especially the film world. After graduating I had began working with a big local film company on projects and fell in love with being on set and being a sound guy i’m always near the camera guy or just really close whats going on in the scenes. I would always study and started implementing what I was seeing in my own short films or music videos. On one of the sets I actually met my boxing Todd we spoke about, he was playing a extra in the film as a boxer of course. We connected that day on plans of doing music before he knew I was also into shooting my own work. Year or two down the line he has a big fight coming up and invites me to his gym in Houston ” Main Street Boxing and MuayThai ” a highly decorated gym filled with champions and great fighters. My first day at the gym i asked could I hit the mitts and do a workout before i began filming. He wore me out , but I fell even more in love with the sport and wanting to become a big figure in boxing media due to its lack of proper coverage.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
So we would start by grabbing food. Being born and raised in Port Arthur Texas we going to swing by Trill Burgers get some good burgers and exclusive Exotic Pops to drink on. They also sell dope merch at the Trill Burgers spot. Also cant miss the raceway out in Houston, love fast cars and car meets cant go wrong with tire smoke in the air. After we check out the dope art around the city and get some photos in maybe we hit the Rodeo! Whatever they want after that its there vacation not mine i’m down for it all

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
First I would like to thank my team Red House 409. Those guys are second to none in anything, just all around great guys who motivate me to keep the train going. They are the coal in the flames that keeps it all going. Also want to thank my boxing coach Todd Manuel. So one who has revamped my mind and body to another level when it comes to health, fitness, training, and making everyday count. He’s is constantly using his time to motivate or help anyone he can and its contagious. What he has taught me in such a short time is remarkable. It has led me to teaching kids to box and protect them selves from bullying. Im instilling the same confidence my coach has giving me into the youth.
