Beyond the Lens: November Kendricks, The Cornerstone of Studio 7 and Neyiùs Media’s Vision

At Neyius Media, our strategic investments are designed to foster innovation, drive industry excellence, and create lasting impact. Few divisions embody this philosophy as profoundly as Studio 7, our state-of-the-art production hub in Vancouver and Nevada. And at the very heart of Studio 7’s operational brilliance and creative output is November Kendricks, our highly valued Studio Manager and Set Director.

For seven remarkable years, November has been an indispensable part of the Studio 7 family. (Yes, seven years at Studio 7 – a testament to dedication, alignment, and perhaps a touch of creative destiny.) His tenure predates Neyius Media’s acquisition of Studio 7 in 2023, showcasing an enduring commitment to the facility and its mission that seamlessly integrates with our corporate foresight.

November is the architectural mind behind the tangible magic at Studio 7. His expertise extends across the vast landscape of our offerings, from meticulously overseeing the construction and configuration of our diverse custom-built sound stages, ranging from 10,000 to 38,500 sq ft, each with silent HVAC, elevated grid heights, and robust power—to orchestrating the dynamic layouts of our flexible outdoor locations. Whether it’s bringing to life a detailed residential block, transforming a space into a vintage diner, or adapting our podcast set for a high-profile recording, November ensures every inch of Studio 7 is primed for creative success and operational efficiency. His dedication guarantees that safety and smooth execution are never compromised, aligning perfectly with Neyius Corporation’s commitment to strategic precision.

But November’s impact at Studio 7, and by extension, on Neyius Media’s overarching goals, transcends the traditional boundaries of a Studio Manager or Set Director. As pictured, his engagement with post-production elements speaks volumes about the integrated, collaborative environment fostered within Studio 7. He is often found lending his keen eye and extensive production knowledge to the post-production teams, ensuring continuity and elevating the final output. This hands-on, end-to-end involvement reflects the “family” ethos at Studio 7, a microcosm of Neyius Media’s broader strategy where every component works in unison to achieve unparalleled results.

November’s Strategic Impact within the Neyius Ecosystem:

  • Operational Excellence: His meticulous oversight of Studio 7’s facilities directly translates into maximized efficiency for all productions, ensuring that the substantial investments made in our sound stages and backlots yield optimal returns. This directly supports Neyius Media’s focus on performance under pressure.
  • Creative Fulfillment: By translating complex creative visions into tangible, functional sets, November directly facilitates the success of our clients. This not only builds Studio 7’s reputation as a trusted production hub but also reinforces Neyius Media’s standing as a leader in fostering creative innovation.
  • Seamless Integration with Scenester: While Scenester, our co-working space division for podcasters and influencers, offers the ideation grounds, Studio 7 provides the ultimate production environment. November’s deep understanding of operational flow ensures a smooth transition for creators moving from Scenester’s innovative spaces to Studio 7’s full-scale production capabilities.
  • Driving Philanthropic Impact: Every successful project at Studio 7 contributes directly to the Neyius corporate philosophy, with 38% of every dollar generated flowing directly to the Courtney Jordan Foundation. November’s critical role in ensuring project success therefore directly bolsters our philanthropic investments in the future of the industry.

Studio 7 is more than just a facility; it’s a purpose-driven production hub where strategic vision meets creative execution. It’s where your project thrives no matter the complexity. And with dedicated professionals like November Kendricks, who embodies the precision, planning, and execution core to Neyius Media, we offer more than just space, we offer the peace of mind that your project is in the hands of the very best.

Power, Pixels & Purpose: Neyius Media Celebrates Kellan Cruz’s Feature in Cliché Magazine

Some stories don’t fade after publication.
They amplify.

Back in March, Cliché Magazine dropped an exclusive that didn’t just highlight a leader — it spotlighted a movement. Titled “The Architect of Empowerment,” the feature profiled Kellan Cruz, CEO of our sister company Neyius Hotel Group, and it’s still generating waves across industries and inboxes.

And here at Neyius Media, we’re not just proud — we’re inspired.

Because telling stories that matter? That’s what we do.

Kellan’s journey — from single mom to hospitality powerhouse — embodies everything Neyius Media stands for: authenticity, boldness, and impact. Her leadership is more than operational excellence. It’s cinematic. It’s strategic. It’s human. And above all — it’s real.

“We don’t need seats at the table—we need to build new tables.”
– Kellan Cruz, in Cliché Magazine

That’s not just a quote. That’s a script rewrite for the business world. And as the creative engine behind the Neyius Group, we’re here to make sure that message doesn’t just live in print — it lives on screens, in sound, and through stories that scale.

Whether we’re producing brand films, launching digital series, or curating campaign narratives for companies across the Neyius portfolio, we always ask:
What’s the story worth telling?
This one? It’s worth telling again. And again.

Courtney Jordan, our founder, saw it early: that real influence happens when purpose meets media power. That’s why every Neyius brand — from hospitality to communications — is backed by a content strategy that doesn’t just inform. It inspires.

Preston Blake-Jordan and Courtney Jordan: A Sweet Music Discovery

Preston Blake-Jordan Learns the Beat Runs in the Family

At Neyius Media, we love a good music story—especially when it stars family. In a recent Source Magazine interview, rising artist Preston Blake-Jordan learned something incredible: his father, Courtney Jordan, owns publishing rights to songs that helped shape Preston’s own sound. It was a surprising and sweet music discovery between Preston and Courtney—one that unfolded in real time.

When you run a company like Neyius Media, you get used to being behind the scenes—shaping culture from the top without always stepping into the spotlight. But every now and then, a candid moment cuts through and reminds the world just how deep those roots run.

That’s exactly what happened in a recent Source Magazine feature on rising music artist Preston Blake-Jordan. The 16-year-old is already making waves with his fusion of hip-hop and EDM, building his own identity far from the shadows of fame. But during the interview, something unexpected came up—something he didn’t even know himself.

While prepping the story, it was the editor of The Source—one of hip-hop’s most iconic and trusted publications—who revealed a surprising fact: Courtney Jordan, Preston’s father and Executive Chairman of Neyius Media, owns part of the publishing rights to Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” through Neyius’s investment in Theory Entertainment.

When the interviewer brought it up, Preston’s reaction said it all:

“Wait, seriously?” he said, visibly shocked. “I had no idea how big the connection was.”

That moment wasn’t just cute—it was iconic. A real-time discovery that the sounds influencing his music are, quite literally, part of his family’s catalog. And the fact that even Preston didn’t know? That’s a subtle flex if we’ve ever seen one.
