Hey, I'm Tristan Camejo.

I'm a 19 year old dropout.

All I've ever done is create.

Music. Video. Software. Business.

Entrepreneurship

I create things and build businesses around them.

Vex Collective

vex.net.au

It started with DJing and producing tech house through school. I was on the decks for Vex's first show myself.

What began as throwing one event grew into a full events business: we produce our own live shows and manage an artist roster, run a booking agency for DJs and talent, operate a label, and put together complete event packages for other clients end to end: venue, ticketing, DJ, catering, security, photo booth, the lot.

I rarely DJ these days. I ended up focused on the business side of it instead, but the technical mixing and production knowledge from those years is still there, and people who've heard me play tell me I should do it more.

Live shows & an artist roster · A booking agency for DJs and talent · A record label · End-to-end event production

The ads, the posters, the reels, the multicam, the video edits, this kind of website: I never outsourced any of it.

What's next

I'm starting a production company, a creative studio built to streamline the services above (photography, videography, editing, mixing and mastering) and bring other creatives on board.

Before Vex

  • Software startup: Dropped out in Year 11 to go all in on it.
  • Marketing agency: Scaled it up, then wound it back once the first Vex event proved there was something bigger here.

The story

From zero to sold out.

Documented as it happened, on whatever camera was closest.

Putting up posters for the first Vex event
Sep 2024

Two kids and a stack of posters

Designing the lineup for the first ever event, then out with Kuman putting posters up around the city ourselves.

Oct 2024

First event, first flop

The first Vex event: an under-18s Halloween party that barely sold a ticket. The promo video was rough, but we ran it anyway.

Nov 2024

First paying client

Our first DJ hire client. Testing the setup in my frontyard before the gig, then loading it all into the car for real.

Real decks

First time on proper decks, at Bodega Studios in Sydney. Around the same time a mate drew the first Vex logo in Snapchat and I traced it in Illustrator.

Sold the early birds, lost the show

The Christmas party sold out its early bird release, then the event fell apart and got cancelled anyway. Second event, second lesson.

Dec 2024

An actual office

The original Vex office. Not much, but it made the whole thing feel real.

Press shots, finally

First time getting proper press shots taken. A small thing that felt like a big deal at the time.

Melbourne, and knowing

First flight I'd ever taken, first time in Melbourne. Standing in that Airbnb, I knew this was what I wanted to do with my life.

May 2025

Whiteout goes viral

The video that used the line that ended up everywhere: hosting the biggest under-18 event in the city. It went viral across Instagram and TikTok.

Jun 2025

Melbourne starts asking

The Sydney videos travelled further than we did. People begged for a Melbourne show, so we flew down, shot content, and the first Melbourne video went viral too.

500 out of 500

Show night

Whiteout Sydney, the night itself. 500 people in the room.

Then Melbourne, nine days later

Ran it back in Melbourne the following week. From an empty Halloween party to this in nine months.

Skills

What I actually do.

01

Music

Mixing · Mastering · Production · DJing

Years engineering rap records and producing tech house as a DJ, technical enough that people who've heard me play tell me I should do it more often. Rap vocal or club record, it's the same process: taking a track from rough recording to a release-ready master.

Hip-hop tracks, produced, mixed, and mastered by me.

02

Video

Photography · Videography · Editing · Multicam

Event, portrait, and press photography, multicam live show coverage, and the edit that turns raw footage into something people actually watch.

Proficient editor across every format, from short-form to full YouTube videos. In the meantime, check out @vex.collective on Instagram: I edited every reel there and shot most of it too.

03

Software

Web & app development · Internal tooling

This site is built with Next.js, Prisma, and Stripe. I dropped out of school the first time to chase a software startup, long before Vex existed, and I still build every internal tool Vex runs on.

Business

Paid ads · Content strategy · Promoter systems · Event production

Running Vex is as much a business as a creative practice. Paid ad campaigns tied directly to ticket sales, a tiered promoter and street team incentive structure, and the event production machinery behind every show.

  • Meta ads, tied directly to ticket sales
  • Content strategy: bulk multicam cut into trial reels
  • Tiered promoter and street team systems
  • Event production: venue compliance, licensing, police submissions
  • Budgeting, contracts, supplier management
  • Crisis comms: cancelled dates, mass ticket transfers
