Sneakerbox

As I'm trolling through the footage I keep landing on these moments that I wish I'd been able to capture with a still camera too... but captured stills will have to suffice. Here's one of my latest favorites from the Sneakerbox Jam that went down in July...


5 Crew Dynasty Huddle

Kings of New York

Here are some shots from Kings of New York went down the night after Halloween at St. Marks Church in the East Village. I wasn't in love with the fact with the fact the crowd had to be so far away from the battles -- but still managed to get some shots that I'm happy with. Congrats to Dynamic & 5 Crew who took home the breaking title!

Portraits of the crew by Kris Graves

As part of the final episode of the crew, I filmed a photo session of the crew with friend & talented photographer Kris Graves (krisgravesprojects.com) at his studio in Dumbo. Here are some of the final photos...

Video Stills of the Crew Members

I've been cutting Episode 1 & the intro to the crew & serendipitously paused on a couple of stills that I've since fallen in love with...


Kid Glyde


Invertebrate

Bboy Masters

This is the jam that went down this weekend in Bushwick... Gravity ended up taking home 1K from his battle with Trix & DVS won $200 & the chance to battle Gravity in the next round. Things got a little dicey when the music & lights got shut down in the final battle...! Check out the last picture for lighting conditions in the last round...

Sneaktip Commercial with Kid Glyde

Here's the commercial that I shot & directed with Kid Glyde for Sneaktip.... (stills are below in an earlier post). We used a Jordan commercial as the inspirational springboard & went from there. Kid Glyde was super patient through all the shooting especially considering he got an unexpected second workout!

Practice in McCarren Park

Shout out to Mike for inviting me to shoot at the practice spot in McCarren Park -- there were a bunch of crews there for the first chilly evening of the fall!
