He signed a directing contract with Ridley Scott & Associates, where he helped develop Black Dog films, becoming the first director on contract. At RSA, Paul created music videos for renowned artists such as Lenny Kravitz, INXS, Seal, and Jamiroquai, among others.
Paul's impressive resume continued to grow as he moved on to a directing contract at Propaganda Films under the leadership of Steve Golin and Co.
