you’re the piece of me that I definitely
00:01
do not have I know I just listened so
00:03
many amazing things about you
00:06
what it is is your order and your
00:08
ability to think about these things is
00:10
something I desperately wish I could
00:11
pause as well as you hi my name is Franz
00:24
Avery and I’m a recording artist
00:25
songwriter and producer based here in
00:27
Los Angeles California
00:29
hi my name is Jesse I’m a photographer
00:30
director based in Los Angeles and so we
00:35
met actually back in 2016 we both went
00:38
to the University of Central Florida and
00:40
he was like two years older than me said
00:41
we were never like in the same classes
00:43
but we were in the same circle the first
00:45
time I like actually saw you in person I
00:47
was like oh like this guy’s like kind of
00:49
cute and then I like why don’t you
00:50
answer him in immediately message e
00:52
because I thought you looked cute so and
00:54
I didn’t know too much about you I
00:55
remember actually getting a first visual
00:58
from your Instagram and what I noticed
01:00
was you were ridiculously artful
01:01
everything had so much intention to it
01:04
which I thought was so hot and also your
01:06
smile
01:14
you
01:15
[Music]
01:29
so I noticed that he was around like
01:33
people that I thought were all so
01:34
creative and he was also a good dancer
01:36
and I’m like always actually people are
01:38
good dancers and people who aren’t
01:39
afraid to dance in the clubs because I
01:40
feel people are too afraid to do it
01:42
nowadays I am not afraid of you that I
01:45
am not afraid no matter if they’re never
01:47
fun
01:49
[Laughter]
01:51
[Music]
01:56
I got asked a question recently and it
02:00
was how do you separate your work and
02:02
personal life and I was like I am
02:04
wrapped into all of those at all time I
02:06
there’s really no separation for me it’s
02:08
learning how to dance with those things
02:10
and that’s actually what makes it fun
02:12
and that’s the life that we like got to
02:13
choose with the other and that’s a
02:15
blessing there’s like a saying that you
02:16
have to separate your personal and work
02:18
life to like have some type of mental
02:20
sanity and I don’t think that’s true a
02:21
good example of that recently is that
02:23
you’re spilling out video I had the
02:24
concept to do this filling out video
02:26
which is an all-boy slumber party so I
02:28
was like I want to shoot this like loaf
02:29
I really like affordable like in this
02:31
budget so I can also do another video so
02:34
then I have the idea to do it all like
02:35
on VHS we both me the idea was gonna be
02:37
fun and we it’s like strapping her booth
02:40
kind of and going at it with each other
02:42
and that’s a you had to perform every
02:44
performance exciting aspect of it and I
02:46
had to be that with the camera and
02:47
direct and keep the party going kinda we
02:50
were so able to respect each other’s job
02:54
[Music]
02:59
one of the best ways to keep things
03:01
alive in the bedroom is honestly before
03:03
the bedroom happens it’s like sending
03:05
new it’s like we don’t really like sex
03:07
in the terms of like this is what I’m
03:09
gonna do
03:09
keeping things alive in that bedroom is
03:11
keeping things feeling really good in
03:12
the relationship in general I feel like
03:14
you have way more sex somewhere like way
03:15
more missing even if we’re not in the
03:18
same room or in the same place well just
03:20
send the mostess sweetest little text
03:23
message to each other and I mean after
03:25
three years it’s it can be so easy to
03:27
still like go to bed or like watch a
03:29
movie and fall asleep
03:30
this is definitely our way to do it how
03:32
to surprise each other and get each
03:34
other back into it so jesse is always
03:44
like so much fun to be around
03:46
honestly hot too but also just so
03:49
creative and it’s like always like
03:50
really there for me and always like this
03:52
empathetic like when I need in here to
03:54
listen to you and Justin has never been
03:56
judgmental of me or literally anybody I
03:59
mean I love you
04:00
bronze is someone I will never be able
04:03
to find again he is the most
04:05
level-headed most respectful most
04:08
encouraging the definition of being a
04:11
good partner and a good friend and a
04:13
good family member and a good
04:14
relationship period you’re the piece of
04:17
me that I definitely do not have I know
04:19
I just listen so many amazing things
04:20
about you
04:22
what it is is your order and your
04:24
ability to think about these things is
04:26
something I desperately wish I could
04:28
pause as well as you
04:32
[Music]
04:49
you make me feel together you make me
04:53
feel inspired you make me feel like I’m
04:57
gonna plat for him to jump off the
04:59
highest cliff you make me feel safe you
05:02

05:05
very proud I love you
05:09
