Waterson released their first web series, That's My DJ, in 2014. Waterson directed every episode of the series and co-wrote several. They also wrote and produced some of the music. Waterson based some of the series on their own experiences as a queer person in the music industry. In an interview, Waterson discussed their intentions with the series, saying:Being a DJ myself I found myself looking around the clubs and bars thinking there are so many interesting characters set against this colorful background, why isn’t anyone telling this story?! It was that moment that inspired me to write and create That’s My DJ.Waterson collaborated with other creatives in the Toronto arts scene to create the series and initially relied on self-financing to produce the project. The first season of the series originally premiered online in 2014, after a successful crowdfunding campaign via Indiegogo.
