CEDAR LAKE DANCE INSTALLATION Spring 2011 I created a site-specific aerial hammock structure for this installation and worked with the house rigger to order proper materials and aerial rigging for the company.  Before and throughout the performance I coached the dancers in proper safety for entering and exiting the structure to ensure their confidence in the air, as well as basic moves and transitions in the aerial structure that the choreographer could then take and build choreography upon.

REMAH RED, “WINDOW”  With only 2 and a half weeks and a shoestring budget, I produced this song for Japanese recording artist Remah Red.  She came to me with a concept – the window –  and I was able to find her a track producer, recording studio, choreographer, rehearsal studio, videographer, location, costume and editor.  This was my first experience producing a song and music video, and it was a bit crazy, but a really fun learning experience.  Tracks made by Dave LeBleu, Choreography by Abdur-Rahim Jackson.

VPL MOTILITY F/W 2015  This video was shot in Ugo Rondinone’s studio at the end of January, right after the huge “blizzard of 2015”  I cast the talent and directed acrobat movement for the complicated moving shots.  Directed by Britt Kubat and Charles Veley
