PATTI SMITH: DREAM OF LIFE – TRAILER
I worked as an Online Assistant Editor on this film. Being that I was an essential part of the process of finishing this documentary; and being that I am a fan of Patti Smith, I thought it would be great to make a trailer for this film which honors one of the most artistic and influential voices in American music and poetry. This trailer is my own individual work, and is not the official studio trailer.
Patti Smith: Dream of Life was a winner of the 2008 Sundance Film Festival Excellence in Cinematography Award: Documentary

“E.B.T. – N.Y.C.” MOZIM ON HIP HOP LYRICS
Nasan Fitz Henley (Mozim Messiah) explores and shares deeper meanings and spiritual themes in the lyrics to his original song “E.B.T – N.Y.C.” (Entry By Troops – New York City).
Topics explored: Progression and striving for better in our lives. Living for the fame? Creating music for inner and social nobility. Why living for fame leaves us weak and exposed to the whims of others. Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome. Dr. Joy DeGruy’s theories of why African American’s act and think they way they do, their residual behaviors from trans-Atlantic slave trade passed down over generations, and why this needs to be remedied. Music is a remedy. Why Mozim’s music is inspired by the message of Baha’u'llah, which is a healing message for humanity.

Mozim and Infinity – Are You Out There? (LIVE)
Mozim Messiah and Infinity perform their original song “Are You Out There” during a live performance at the NEBY Fest 2007 side stage, with special guests Akka and Badi. This hip hop love song is really sweet and about meeting that special once in a lifetime true love. I think you will enjoy it.
MultiCamera shoot directed, edited and color corrected on Avid by Charlie Kirby.

SYMPHONIC ERUPTION – REMIX
I took two dissonant elements, then cut them together to see what the result would be. It’s pretty darn hilarious if you ask me.
Remix ingredients: 1 part “Eruption” by Eddie Van Halen. 1 part symphony orchestra. Stuff with heaping amount of Time Remapping. Blend thoroughly in Final Cut Pro. Serve blazing hot!
