Meet The Founder

Afterlife Films was founded by filmmaker and media strategist Khalif Bradley. Khalif started as a campaign assistant for Crowds on Demand, the top advocacy and public relations firm in the country. He worked his way up from a frontline advocate to a lead campaign coordinator. He’s spent years mastering how to capture public attention.

His debut documentary on gentrification in America's most affluent Black neighborhood racked up over 300,000 views. He launched Afterlife Films to blend hard hitting investigative journalism with aggressive media strategy, giving clients a powerful voice to push their causes into the spotlight.

The agency was born out of a personal fight for accountability. When a corporate construction crew’s gross negligence allowed a dangerous, unleashed animal to breach Khalif's private property resulting in the tragic loss of his pet the owners refused to admit fault. Khalif refused to back down. Instead, he weaponized his background in filmmaking and strategic PR to launch an independent investigative studio. Today, Afterlife Films scales that exact, uncompromising blueprint to protect your truth and command the narrative. When he isn’t directing investigative projects here, Khalif backs early-stage startups as an investor and continues to run tactical public relations campaigns nationwide.
