Project Oh! (Mini) – July 2017

July 9, 2017 by Project Oh!

A Note from Project Oh!

Hey, what’s up? Doing well? Ya, I know..I too have been sweating like an egg on Easter. So, anyway this mo– huh? Oh, I thought you were saying something else. So, this month we have some new projects wrapping up, some still in progress and others that are being started. But first, we want to recap some things from last month.

The Get Down Art Show #5

We had another great turnout of artists and supporters. It was a hot one, and we struggled with our A/C going down for a bit, but we were happy everyone stuck around to appreciate art with us. Our raffle was a success and will be an ongoing thing, and we were happy to see some artwork being sold. We have plans to offer some of the artwork for sell on our website as well, so keep an eye out for that.

Filmmaking Workshops

The filmmaking workshop was a really fun endeavor. It went a bit longer than expected, but we were able to give some dedicated time to our students to help them create their short films. Some of the films are already up on YouTube but we will make an official post on our page when they are all completed and ready to view. We look forward to doing it again.

Photography Workshops

Last month we also started our 6 session photography workshop which comes to a close this month. However, with only two sessions left, we feel there is still so much more to cover, so we will be offering another series of advanced workshops as well as a few more for beginners.

Chuck1

My name is Charles Garcia. I go by the names DJ Chuck 1 and C1. I’ve been an artist for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I used to draw Bboys, tanks, helicopters, totem poles, Transformers, Voltron, monsters from Scooby Doo, etc… I got into graffiti and graffiti art in the 90’s, and I’ve always been a fan of anime. My style is a fusion of my greatest influences, anime and hip hop. My passions are graffiti and anime. Working with spray paint and acrylic are my typical “go to” mediums. My favorite artists are Futura (formerly Futura 2000,) Sam Flores, She 1, Mr. Jago, Dave Kinsey, Phil Frost, Twist One/Barry Mcgee, Fafi, Ms. Van, Will Barras, and countless anime movies.
