Click to Watch Alan Wheeler in New Video
Alan Wheeler was recently selected to be featured as one of the actors in the above video. This video was a project of a team of DJ’s that create electronic music. Sometimes they use already published music, such as found in this video. Other times they will use original material.
A casting was held and Alan was awarded one of the three roles for the video.
The video was recorded in early January this year and they worked on it over a period of two to three days.
All the work was done in the LA area with some scenes shot in the Hollywood area others on a location in Alta Dena.
This was a fun opportunity for Alan because he learned to "glove"…... If you watch the video you will see that in several of the scenes he has gloves on that have lights in the fingers. He had to learn to move his arms, hands and fingers in a way that complimented the music.
Also noteworthy is the fact that Alan has loved skateboarding for many years, although there were not many places to ride a skateboard in Monterrey, Mexico as the traffic there is not conducive to skateboarding. Now that he lives in LA, he has been able to ride more and he uses this talent in the video.
Some of the scenes also were done in Torrance. The set in Alta Dena was very interesting for all, it is a more remote area and the people that operate the place have many pet animals including Llamas. Alan and his sister LOVED that! In fact during the filming Alan's sister (Chris) and his mother were extras!
The recording days were long and everyone involved really worked hard - but as you can see from the video, it was well worth it!
Alan’s dad was quoted as saying;
“The video production crew, the composers, and the rest of the gang all proved to be very professional and created a first-rate production. They created a really catchy tune that sticks in your head - but in this particular case it feels GOOD!
Watch Alan's latest live performance.
Singing Umbrella and demonstrating his gloving techniques!
