Level's first commercial is here! Employing similiar styles and techniques as classic 60's and 70's Hollywood film trailers , I wanted this commercial to have a grungy 60's film feel to contrast with the youthfulness and modernity of the dancers themselves. Intended for either television or the web, I kept the commercial at 23 seconds in order to give it the versatility it needs to be useful in either medium. Enjoy!
Titled "La Venganza Del Exorcista" in Spanish and "Becoming Vengeance" in English, the series tells the story of a how a young boy named Rey becomes possessed by a demon of vengeance when his mother is brutally beaten to death before him. Alone and rapidly losing himself to the spirit within, Rey is adopted by a priest named Felipe who takes him under his wing and introduces him to a secret society of exorcists named The Seven Watchmen. Believing Rey to have a resistance to demonic powers and a natural inclination towards being an exorcist, the Seven Watchmen attempt to subdue the demon but fail, unknowingly leaving behind a small portion of its essence within the boy. Years pass and Rey becomes a powerful exorcist, banishing hundreds of demons back to their respective houses of hell. However, the demon within lives on, and for every soul Rey takes, the spirit within grows more and more powerful, threatening to consume both Rey and the world in the fires of its hate.
This short film tells the story of a failed romance and the journey that a young man takes in order to overcome the bitterness and sorrow which we as humans must all at some point face. A story that reminds us to always keep moving forward, I'm proud to present to you my first official music video release. Please take a look.

After about six months of work, I have finally finished my senior thesis project and my first feature-length script. The first part of a trilogy, "The Sons of the Inheritane" follows the lives and interactions of three young men from opposing crime families, who, when forced to come into contact with one another, unite to challenge the realities of the world around them.
On October 1, 2010, three of New York City's biggest breakers judged a Bboy battle at Carleton College. This is a short video reel showing some of the highlights from that night. Starring Kid Glyde, Whorah, and Gravity.
After having spent three weeks at my internship at UCV Television, centered in the two cities of Vina Del Mar and Santiago, Chile, I can now start presenting the work I have done at the station.
On the third day after my arrival, I was assigned the job of directing the introduction to a cultural television program titled "País Culutral," a show that documents and reports on significant cultural and artistic happenings throughout the country. On the day of the shoot, the crew and I were given an hour and a half in which to shoot all the footage, which introduced me to the time pressures of real-time television production. Here's the final result.

At long last, I have completed my first script. A short twenty-minute stage-play that follows four random people sitting together in a train car, the play shows how a completely normal subway ride is anything but ordinary when we are allowed a window into the minds of the people involved.
The first of a group of dance videos that I will be uploading to this website, I intend to demonstrate my development as a dancer and choreographer through the progressive posting of videos throughout my college career. The first of many, this video was taken as I began to practice my hip-hop and freestyling moves during the summer of 2009.
