2011 Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival Trailer

The sponsor trailer for the 2011 Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival. Unlike previous years, the music was created before the motion graphics. Composer, George Shaw, and I had a brainstorming session which helped drive the direction of the animation.

To Live & Ride In L.A.

Currently touring the film festival circuit, I had the opportunity to work on the motion graphic design for this ass kicking documentary about fixed-gear riders in Los Angeles.

TRAFIK presents The Official Trailer for To Live & Ride In L.A. http://www.toliveandrideinla.com

Over a year in the making, To Live & Ride In L.A. is the first feature-length film about L.A.’s underground fixed-gear culture. Directed by David Rowe (Fast Friday), the documentary explores a side of Los Angeles few outsiders have ever seen.

To Live & Ride In L.A. features talented local riders tearing up the streets with first-time visitor Keo Curry (Fast Friday, Macaframa), one of the living legends of the sport. From races through rush-hour traffic to midnight loft parties, To Live & Ride In L.A. is a fast-paced trip through the busy streets and back-alleys of one of the world’s largest cities.

The second feature film from David Rowe, To Live & Ride In L.A. will challenge viewers’ perceptions of a city better known for its paparazzi, fake breasts, and traffic jams.
