While looking over my recent work and how to properly implement it into my company website, I realized… I need a new layout. The original one was great, but it wasn’t apparent to the visitors what my company is and what we offer. So without further ado, here is a screenshot:

If you click the image above, it will take you straight to the website. It’s makeover is complete for now, pending some small changes here and there. Please feel free to leave a comment and let me know what you think of the new layout!

Elamintal Multimedia has just released the newest martial arts promo video for Marrese Crump featuring Oscar Lugo and WWE Superstar Dave Batista (Bautista is his real name). The trio go through various sequences of Filipino Martial Arts (kali, arnis, escrima).

Many thanks to all who were involved, as well as Tampa Muay Thai, where it was filmed… and pronobozo for the permission to use such great quality music. It was a long day of shooting and an exhausting editing session until 4AM, but it was a lot of fun and look forward to doing it again real soon. To sum it all up in the joking words of Marrese while editing at about 3AM…

“Dude!…. it looks like I actually know what I’m doing!”

Enjoy!

Thank you to everyone who was involved in making TRACEUR! It couldn’t have been pulled off without every single one of you and we look forward to you, your family and your friends coming out to support our collective work!

Here is a music video I wanted to share with everyone that I was finally able to dig up and upload. It was produced by Galileo Studios by a great up-and-coming band, The Beauvilles.

I choreographed the fight scene in the bathroom. The scene is a bit choppy and cuts real fast (I didn’t sit in on the editing), but I hope you get the idea. It was a lot of fun to work on and I met some great people like Nevada Caldwell who I look forward to working with again in the future, hopefully on my own projects.

Enjoy!  [Update: The following video only has the fight scene.]
