The film featured an all-star cast and won Halle Berry the Academy Award for Best Actress, making her the only Black woman and the first woman of color to receive the award in the Academy's history.
Ray's role as a producer saw him create multiple joint ventures for his clients and the company, with successes such as The Black Knight and Big Momma's House, both of which were penned by client Darryl Quarles for Martin Lawrence[13][1]. This put Martin in the highest earners category making $20 million per film.

He also produced several updated versions of classic films, including Fritz Lang's legal thriller Beyond A Reasonable Doubt[28] starring Michael Douglas, and I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell, based on the bestselling novel by Tucker Max[29]. Ray's influence in the entertainment industry continues to be evident in his numerous accomplishments and the success of his clients and partners[19].

Ray brokered a deal for John Singleton and director Franc Reyes to finance Latino films[30] and Executive Produced the Harvey Keitel and John Leguizamo thriller The Ministers[31].
Salient Media, Collective Digital Studio & Collective Sounds
As opportunities for distribution became available, Aaron and his partners, alongside producer/director Gary Binkow, created various studios, starting with Salient Media. This division was designed to cater to clients with specific customer bases and produced a range of comedy titles that were distributed through Vivendi Universal. Their most successful project was Katt Williams' Pimpin Pimpin, a special that set new records on HBO and sold several million copies. Salient Media's portfolio also included works from Kevin Nealon, Mike Epps, Don Rickles, Mo'Nique, and Eddie Izzard.
Additional films were made in the horror genre bolstered by the acquisition of Bloody-Disgusting in 2007. Under the Bloody-Disgusting label, genre horror films such as V/H/S, V/H/S2, V/H/S: Viral enjoyed success. This success was an extension of Ray's rights deals and development work on the RKO Val Lewton Horror Titles[32], which included I Walked With A Zombie, The Body Snatcher, Isle of the Dead, and Cat People.
Collective Sounds

Collective Digital Studio (CDS)
Ray played a pivotal role in the creation of the Collective Digital Studio (CDS) in 2011, leading the formation of an internal DevOps team[33]. The team's primary focus was on emerging social media companies[34], including MySpace, Twitter, and Facebook, with a specific focus on YouTube[35]. This strategic focus led to the creation of one of the first Multi Channel Networks (MCN)[36].
Ray's leadership also resulted in the re-integration of CDS into the newly formed entity after the acquisition of Metacafe[37][38]. This transition shifted the company from a transactional service-based entity to one of the world's largest asset-based digital businesses[39]. An initial investment of $83 million from ProSieben led to a valuation of over $450 million, with over 230 employees[40] The new entity was renamed Studio71 and stands as one of the only successful digital studio platforms ever launched from the a top tier management company. The MCN model was initially reliant on YouTube before CDS hired a sales team to arbitrage ads against their client's social channels[41]. A major deal was made with the Electric Daisy Festivals' parent company Insomniac [42]. This model is consistent with Ray's entire career and the result is one of the largest digital studios in the world.
Technology & Free Speech Advocacy
Ray is a fervent advocate for free speech and civil rights. He's recognized as a thought leader and futurist, often giving talks and participating in industry panels.

His ideas and opinions have been well-documented in various outlets, including a Forbes article from 2020 titled "The Event Horizon of Truth"[52].
