The soul of kashif
Kashif, which means to uncover or reveal in Arabic, was the name of our friend and brother in storytelling, Bobby Kashif Cox. A gentle lion who created stories with characters who explored fear, courage, vulnerability, and integrity.
Bobby Kashif made us laugh, cry, rage, and most of all love. We are building on the quiet persistence of a young man who imagined with his whole heart and lived in the revolution of words. May we always meet you in the magic.
“The function of the artist is to do more than tell it like it is — it’s to imagine what is possible.”

The heart of kashif
Love. Integrity. Faith. Equanimity.
These are our guiding principles.
Our work is LOVE-centered. You are a part of We.
We begin in love, fueled by intuition, self-reflection, healing, universal respect, creative vision, and a determination of spirit. We practice daily conscious contact with love to influence our behavior, our vision, our purpose.
INTEGRITY is the conscientious force guiding our conduct. Rooted in love, our integrity demands from us self-awareness, honesty, and consistency. Our actions mirror our words and thoughtful intent will result in appropriate impact. We honor our values and our community with accountability, transparency and respect.
FAITH is the fundamental principle we rely upon to trust our intuition and guide our purpose. We honor the universality of faith within all its definitions, and do not define it specifically for anyone. We believe faith grounded in wisdom powers the heart and spirit of who we are and what we do.
EQUANIMITY: We cannot heal a broken system if we are unwell. Our work is no more important than our mental health and our ability to find balance. We look for solutions with blamelessness, composure, and compassion. We approach our work and our community with a mindful, healing focus.
We are storytellers who imagine with our whole hearts. We are Kashif. And you are a part of we.

A REVOLUTION OF WORDS
Words are powerful tools of creation. Building on the lexicon established by BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and disabled communities (intersectionality, ableism, GOAT, my bad, shade), Kashif is creating alternate terminology that relieves us from the violent and oppressive film and workplace language pervasive today. Since language is continually evolving, shaping a new vocabulary that is equitable, non-threatening, and intentional involves us all -- we invite you to try the following cultural shifts.
