Teen Groov Title Card

I was getting ready to upload Teen Groov's recent performance from Eclectic Music Festival when I realized that they didn't have a Title Card for any of their videos yet. There was a recent tutorial I saw on video copilot and figured that I would use this opportunity to not only learn something new, but create something for them as well. Enjoy!

Notepad Sketches

Whenever I get an idea, most of the time I stop whatever I'm doing and I just go with it before I lose the momentum. These were sketched during work, I didn't have my sketch book anywhere near by so I just a nearby notepad. These are possible shirt designs for a couple of the teams I direct: Name Taggz and Teen Groov.  The sketch on the left was actually done a year ago and I just happened to find it recently. I actually still like how it looks and I might go ahead and finish it up with Illustrator. I actually still have a lot of these notepad sketches I wanna post up. Hope you guys enjoy!

FamBiz on Alhambra Source!

An article was just written about Family Bizness on the Alhambra Source! One of the directors, Stephanie Hagberg was recently interviewed by an editor who happens to take pilates regularly at Jayvee Dance Center.

Personally, this is pretty exciting because ever since I helped start this team, it's great to see our efforts don't go unnoticed. Huge shout out to everyone who's supported us since we started.

Check out the article right here!

Arie Dixon Is My Name

Here's a piece that I taught to FamBiz for our previous set. Most of the song is choreographed to Bebe Boohgz - Arie Dixon Is My Name, but for the intro, I decided to remix it by adding the dubstep break down from Britney Spears - Hold It Against Me. I think it turned out pretty dope! I kinda mess up for the solo video so my bad! Enjoy the video though!

World of Dance-LA 2011

This past weekend was World of Dance-Los Angeles! It was probably the hugest event I've ever performed at, over 12,000+ in attendance! Check out the footage of the from FamBiz and Teen Groov.

Art In Progress....

So I've currently been on the process of uploading new artwork in. I recently scanned some life art I did when I went with my girlfriend to the park. And I have some new T-Shirt designs on the way. I recently tried to get some of the animation work I did off my hard drive when I faced a dilemma. My computer isn't reading my hard drive. It says it is, but for some reason it keeps saying that I have to reformat it. I can't do that without deleting all my work on it. If you guys know any tips or links as to how I can get this thing fixed let me know. In the mean time I'll try to fix it myself before taking it in. Looking forward to sharing the new works with you guys soon!

Teen Groov Shirt Design

Here's a simple graphic of a shirt I had designed for one of the dance teams I direct, Teen Groov. It was my first year as director at the time and I wanted to try to make sure I capture the feeling and energy these kids were giving me. So I aimed for a bit of a bubbly-ish feel, i added the frame with the white gradient because I felt like the text wasn't popping out enough and I didn't want just bubbles all over the shirt. The shirt came out pretty dope! It's always nice to see people wear something you made yourself. =] The picture on the right is my girlfriend by the way. <33

Fam Biz Audition Flier

The flier I designed when FamBiz was having auditions. Unlike the (500) Nights of FamBiz flier, this one is much closer to the poster of the movie with some slight adjustments here and there. The flier turned out a lot better than I thought. Hope you guys enjoy! Critiques and comments are welcome!

Culture Shock Los Angeles Soul Survivors Intro

CULTURE SHOCK!!!! Hah, this is the video intro I did for Culture Shock Los Angeles'

Benefet Show: Soul Survivors. It was a fairly simple piece to put together. It took me only about two to three days total to put together not including all the reviews and notes that were made to fix it. I had originally put a background for more of a design purpose but was removed because it was too difficult to read due to the fact it was projected on lightly tinted brown walls and not a regular screen. Hope you guys enjoy!
