BLAT! Pack Live (Digital, 35 min., 2016)

BLAT! Pack Live is a short music and concert documentary featuring an emerging hip-hop music collective with roots in Lansing and Detroit, Michigan. This film highlights the impulse of African-rooted hip-hop and spoken word as a creative weapon. Using a four-camera set up and dynamic audio, this film captures the energy and exuberance of BLAT! Pack's young and talented performers, Yellokake, Joshua Smith and Phourthelove. The film comprises footage of the live Commonground Festival performance, interviews, rehearsals, pre-show, and post show to emphasize the creative musical process and share an understanding of the uniquely American art form of hip hop.
