Zak Abitz, 35, is a cinematographer based in Phoenix, Arizona. He earned a bachelor’s degree from FSU majoring in film and has been working in the film industry since 2010. While starting his film career in Oklahoma, he worked on many commercial shoots as well as a viral Pacman short film. After moving to Phoenix in 2015, Zak has continued to master the cinematographer role, serving on over a dozen music videos, multiple short films, and many short form documentaries. Zak has been married for 9 years, and now father to a 3 year old son. Because of this connection to his son and Jacob’s story, he is grateful to be involved in this project. He hopes to bring more awareness to the mental health struggle of each generation as well as helping people understand that creatives can be more than just their work.
