Film series trailer, “Be realistic, demand the impossible!” Cinema, Surrealism, Marxism at BAM


“Throwing food, throwing bombs, throwing tantrums, throwing parties, throwing Molotov cocktails...”

This introductory line from series programmer Yasmina Price served as the jumping off point for one of my favorite projects of all time! I always love having the opportunity to take a complex concept and distill down to it’s written essence. We wanted to capture the chaotic, messy, radically impolite qualities of these anarchic fictions and experimental oddities.

Dance performance trailer, Corps extrêmes, BAM Next Wave Festival 2023

For Rachid Ouramdane’s high-flying Corps extrêmes, the creative team sought to evoke the sense of magnitude and scale at which these athlete-artists were working. In accordance with the dance company’s vision, we produced a short trailer that is spare, ascetic, and meditative.
