Global seismic displacement caused by armed conflict, poverty, and increasing natural disasters is constantly putting children at risk worldwide. Currently it is estimated that there are more than 50 Million children impacted by this humanitarian crisis.
@suite24k has created a public-private partnership (a P3 Model) that brings producer Jeff Oppenheim, composer MIchael Orland (American Idol) and engineer Miklos Malek together to produce an anthem, a music video and a documentary on the issue of global displacement and its impact on children.
We have partnered with the University of Texas — Rio Grande Valley, the Rotary Club of Mission Texas, and Arigatou International NY to produce this sustainable humanitarian campaign.
You can support by making a donation to our nonprofit partner who will be assigning much needed funds to grassroots organizations working on the ground with global refugee children.

It felt like a #flashback Friday when we visited the renowned Copacabana in NYC for one of their hustle dance competitions.
Produced the 2015 Lincoln Center Out of Door's Festival and in doing so, I discovered one of my new favorite bands. The Live Feed coverage was captured with eight cameras and this band put those angles to work! I dare you sit still!

It was a long, hard tour from Angola to Stockholm to Amsterdam to Paris and eventually to NYC and DC, but as you can see in this video, as captured here by our amazing cinematographers & camera people, Deidre Schoo and Mike Nichols, the results were well worth it.
We brought a little of Angola, Africa to Paris and Amsterdam and got the Kuduro party started with the Os Kuduristas Quintal. This 5-day pop-up was an experiential journey through authentic Angolan Kuduro music, dance, fashion, food and much more!
Os Kuduristas took to NYC by storm and its been said they were seen on the City's subway. Though if anyone asks, including the MTA, I will deny it! ;-)
