Hello, my name is Jaren, I am video streaming developer.
I was a approached by a Hollywood Producer that calls himself Craig Nobles.
This man claimed that if I produced and promoted his 9 events (Swagg Media Concerts and Red Carpets Events). I am originally from Connellsville Pennsylvania, moved to Los Angeles in late 2011.
I know a just few people in the LA area and was asking around for work. My ex employer had helped spread my name around LA to get my career launched. I develop special audio and video streaming software that I developed out of FLASH from scratch.

This man Craig Nobles called me out of the blue after he apparently saw a job posting on craigslist.com
I had posted. He talked to my EX Employer as well he said when called and sounded very convincing.
I met with him in December and he took me to a nightclub in downtown Los Angeles and bought me dinner and introduced to people he claimed worked for some big name movie stars and music groups.

I was very impressed with the presentation and frankly I had got very wasted on the champagne!
Everything he seemed to say sounded so convincing and seemed to check out with his Glamorous websites. These websites had 0 video content on them at the time.  He told me if my software would track all visitors and follow their internet browsing habits online that he would make my software go PUBLIC and I would be a very RICH man as long as I allowed swaggmedia.com (Craig Nobles) to have 50% ownership and exclusive special features as described before. I fell for the glamorous lifestyle like a new kid on the block just getting off bus trying to make it as an actor.

I'll get right the point,  I provided the software and implemented it.  The day after the project was completed. Craig stopped taking my calls, eventually I received an email from his secretary saying my services were no longer needed and never to call again.
This man stole 125,000 dollars worth of work from me and my crew that I hired to complete the project. I am now in the hole and have bill collectors calling me daily. Beware of Craig Nobles or anyone associated with Swagg Media (DO YOUR RESEARCH) .

Thanks for listening.
Jaren

Satisfaction...

AUTHOR: El Monte Filmworks - (USA)

POSTED: Tuesday, January 15, 2013

Craig Nobles called me today and offered to pay out the money he has owed me for several years, specific to the concert I addressed above.... I declined the payment option, not wanting any additional contact with him or his company.  That being said, I will state that he did offer payment for monies owed to me, and did attempt to make good his debt to me. I hold no ill will towards Craig and hope that he has returned to the ranks of legitimate producers.

Craig Nobles Also Ripped Me Off

AUTHOR: El Monte Filmworks - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, October 22, 2012

I also worked for Craig Nobles and Swagg Media a couple of years ago, operating my camera crane for a number of his events... Craig decided to stop paying his crews at some point... I am still owed a large sum of money from my last event with him (Soulja Boy Birthday Concert in Hollywood)... at least two members of our crew took him to court and won judgements against him... I eventually just wrote him off as a deadbeat producer... definately avoid Craig Nobles and Swagg Media at all costs...
