A promotional video for a dancer whom I am quite honestly a fan of. I approached her with this concept idea and she was willing to shoot with me and this was the final product. A fun little collaboration. short and sweet.
“Friday Night Party” , hosted by the Chip Chop community and Legacy Lounge in Azabu-Juban. This party is focused around good music, dance, and the community, but is open for anyone and everyone who wants to join. Beer and food is also available and a bunch of wonderful people to meet.
A highlight of one of the last sessions of the Chip Chop Community in 2023. These talented dancers are from all over the world and ,twice a month, flock to Yoyogi Park to dance, practice, talk, and form bonds with on another and the new-comers who are either traveling or moving to Tokyo.
The first Speakeasy of 2024 was an amazing time. This was the first time I did a recap or highlight video of an event and I really enjoyed it.
This was the day I realized and accepted that I truly enjoy shooting in black and white.
A solo of an exctremely talented dancer with a deep story. She is also the Co-Founder of “Chicken ‘n Rice” and “Chip Chop Sessions”. Her movement is so unique so capturing it in this setting was a huge highlight for me.
Chi is becoming a big name in the choreography scene in Tokyo. She always has such a strong vision with the pieces she creates. This was the first peice I was able to record for her with these other talented dancers. this was also the first time I recorded a piece of this size inside of a studio. It was definitely a challenge but we made it work.
Trace from Australia with Kano from Ishigaki Japan. A truly dangerous combination. This was filmed with the intention of showing how deep hip-hop dance really is. These two women are leading figures in their communities and having them both in one video, showcasing their knowledge and understnging of the style, and their styles within the style…beautiful.
