‘el•sol’ taylor nawrocki.

“it was filmed all in valencia, spain in 54 days. from january 17 to march 12. i filmed this part to stay busy for the winter, new york winters are harsh and it’s hard to stay productive, so i decided to skip the winter and make something. el•sol means “sun” in spanish, which is why i went to valencia in particular, it’s warm in the winter which is what brought me there. maybe it will give spain a different look. people think spain and automatically think barcelona or madrid, which puts other cities under the radar. the filmer, alex marco is from valencia, the producer of the song, quique “keith dramn,” is from valencia as well so it’s for their scene as well.”

cuba skate.

one of cuba’s most creative skaters and surfers, yojani pérez rivera reflects on how he and his amigos are #livingoffthewall to make the most of the little they have. mamerto, as he’s known around the island, is among the most active local skaters advancing cuba skate's mission.

cuba skate, an ngo created by american skater miles jackson, is in the process of creating a documentary feature following the lives of mamerto and his scrappy crew, 23yg, to rally the international skate community around its goals:

1. provide much needed skate materials to the cuban youth

2. renovate the only, dilapidated skatepark in havana

3. establish the first skate shop in cuba and foster a bilateral educational exchange between cuban and american skaters

winning vans’ #livingoffthewall contest would help us make the cuba skate documentary a reality and share mamerto and 23yg’s story with the world. 

thanks for your consideration!
