California — April 2026: Presence News founder Kasdyn Click is extending an invitation to rising artist C Blanch, proposing a creative collaboration centered around a high-energy music video shoot at one of Southern California’s most iconic off-road venues.
Click says the vision is simple — raw, authentic, and rooted in the kind of storytelling Presence News has become known for documenting. Kasdyn says “I have been taking notes from Maiara Walsh productions for this music video – now I know how to do like a gore blood scene in it too, I went to her movie screening for the movie she directed, produced & acted in…”
At the center of the pitch is a return to Glen Helen Raceway, a well-known destination for motocross events and freestyle riding, where Presence News has previously filmed.
A Return to Glen Helen — With a Story to Tell
Click shared that he hasn’t been back on the dirt bike since the last Presence News shoot at Glen Helen — a moment that still stands out in the outlet’s growing archive of event and lifestyle coverage. Kasdyn says, “The Husqvarna 150 two stroke is a lot easier to ride than the yz125, you can ride it in the music video. I don’t even like the bike that much – it is way too quiet. I rode it once in the last like three months to be honest – I started it up and rode it down the street to check on that old brown Silverado I still have – once that sells I can buy a nice old like 2008 Mercedes G Wagon Black to match my old black Porsche Cayenne that the Barney family from Harwinton totaled. I’m not mad at her either – I put two new doors on it and had the frame pulled…. It is still on the road today. The only reasons why I keep these old cars on the road is because the kids in the neighborhood were saying I had a different car like every three months. It was hard for me to explain to them how hard it was out there in the real world – I was having vehicles I owned totaled like every three months… I wanted to put up a persona like hey look anything that happens you are more powerful than that – you can overcome it. I grew up in a very slow moving environment and the people who grew up in the Northeast that is something they were never able to experience”
“I haven’t rode the dirt bike since the last time Presence News filmed at Glen Helen,” Click said. “We were planning to make it out for the 2-stroke world championship — just didn’t happen Hollywood has been having Presence News come out more.”
The proposed video would feature a Husqvarna dirt bike on the track, blending music performance with real riding footage — a format that aligns with current trends in independent music visuals.
From Connecticut to Hollywood — A DIY Production Story
Click emphasized the grassroots nature of the production — something he believes resonates more with audiences than overproduced content.
“I’ll take the old Silverado that made it to Hollywood from Connecticut,” he said. “Presence News will bring the Canon C300 Mark II — it’s 11 years old, but it gets the job done.”
The Canon C300 Mark II, once used on the set of MTV’s Teen Mom, represents the kind of practical, story-first gear that Click continues to rely on in the field. It was just used to film Karesa business video.
Rather than chasing high-budget aesthetics, the goal is to capture something real — a blend of music, motion, and environment.
A Direct Message to C Blanch
At its core, the article doubles as an open call.
“Come on C Blanch — let’s make it happen,” Click said. “I know you have some roots in LA, let’s do the music video and walk the red carpet at Jeff’s event in town here”
The collaboration would mark another step in Presence News’ expanding coverage of music, culture, and independent creators, as the outlet continues to bridge local storytelling with broader digital audiences.
Building Creative Momentum
As Presence News grows its video catalog and on-the-ground reporting, projects like this reflect a larger shift toward multimedia storytelling — where articles, interviews, and video content work together to amplify emerging voices.
Whether the collaboration comes together or not, the message is clear: the opportunity is there, the concept is ready, and the production is already in motion.
