-
A CREATIVE AGENCY WHO SPECIALIZES IN STORYTELLING & COMMUNITY BUILDING.
-
-
In the spring of 2017, we went to Miami & saw some people selling coconuts at the beach.
-
Thought to ourselves "this must be nice. How do we make this happen?"
-
Bought a cart at Walmart, cut down some coconuts, & headed to the beach one weekend that summer.
-
Had a blast making some new friends and selling coconut water!
-
Fall started & so did the boring work schedule routine.
-
Stopped selling coconuts...
-
Started wanting MORE than just the get up, go to work, make an 'ok' income, come home, make dinner, watch Netflix, and sleep kind of lifestyle.
-
Dove into our passions for photography & videography A LOT more.
-
Invested in some good camera equipment.
-
Would come home from "work" at five and go to "work-work" from 6PM-1AM - spending countless hours absorbing youtube content and practicing new editing and composition tricks.
-
Started meeting some incredible people from local rappers, to club owners, to app-developing philanthropists.
-
Booked some jobs.
-
...and them some more jobs.
-
Decided to take this on full-time.
-
Quit our jobs.
-
Moved to Tampa in the summer of 2018.
-
And here we are!
-
Met some more cool peeps.
-
Started a podcast - The Dos Cocos Locos Podcast.
-
Found an incredible creative community here and wanted to meet them all so hosted a pop-up event and then another.
-
And the saga continues!




LONG STORY SHORT - WE STARTED BY SELLING COCONUTS AT THE BEACH & NOW WE OWN A CREATIVE AGENCY.
