Meet our founder and CEO | Carl D. Jones
It all started November 2013, in Ohio at Cleveland Institute of Art. It was my Junior year of college and I was so tired of working for people and trying to get an internship at a graphic design firm or a photography studio, it was very difficult. No one wanted to hire me. So I decided to create my own business and be my own boss. Best feeling ever and I dove nose-first straight in not looking back. I have learned first-hand that art must not only be a passion, but a way of life! From a very young age, I’ve always dreamt of the day that I’d be able to share my talent with the world. That dream became possible.
I made the decision to become my own boss and work hard towards helping others in need of quality graphics, stylish professional photos and videos for their brand. Out of this, I was able to found my own company: HYPESTUDIO.
The goal is to be one of the TOP multi-media firms providing the best photography team, video production team, editing team and so much more. I hope someday I will be able to hand HYPESTUDIO to my children and their children.

Meet Sila Martinez |
Makeup Artist & Hairstylist
My love for the beauty industry has stemmed since I was a child. My mom and her sisters heavily inspired me growing up, I remember sitting watching her and her sisters do their own makeup. I was always in awe of the transformational aspect of hair/ makeup and how their confidence just radiated right after they would get ready.
The moment I was able to wear makeup which was around high school my mom taught me everything she knew, I think she immediately regretted that because that's when I started to experiment with my looks. Ever since then I just knew that the beauty industry was where I was meant to be. After I graduated High school I went to Salon Success Academy to be a licensed cosmetologist. I've now been in the beauty industry for 12 years now and my love for the industry has only grown as well with my experience. I pride myself in my techniques and my artistry!
I've worked with many influencers, models, and even on reality tv shows. I know that this is where I'm truly meant to be. This is not just my job but my passion and my passion for makeup/ hair runs so deep! I hope that anyone who sees my work can see my love for it.
Meet Julian Acayan | CMO
I graduated from CSU Long Beach in 2022 with a BS in marketing. My passion for marketing developed at a young age, as I witnessed my parent’s successful careers in digital advertising and marketing communications. Following in their footsteps, I strive to become a leader in the marketing industry. My goal is to start my own advertising agency in the future.
In 2020, I have collaborated with influencers and created content for the startup company, MealMe. In 2021, I played a critical role in the social media marketing of the Non-profit organization, Youth Employment Services (YES). Here, I created weekly content and implemented new strategies to engage and acquire followers.
As the chief marketing officer, my goal is to promote our multi-media firm to the world through various marketing channels, until HYPESTUDIO is a household name.
