Charles has also begun filming an episodic series highlighting the dancers representing the various streets styles in Singapore. Each episode is shot, directed, produced with all production editing done by Charles. This was an initiative that Charles pioneered in Singapore so as to promote the integral role “Freestyling” takes in Street dance as compared to other classical styles (Ballet, Jazz, Contemporary) which are based solely on choreography. It has also allowed him to widen his experience in video editing, story boarding, sound mixing, fx creations and the necessary planning for the logistics that is involved with any filming.
