A dream come true!

The Kennedy Center asked me to direct and edit a 15-camera shoot of Alonzo King LINES Ballet’s Deep River, an elegant and soulful work in collaboration with Grammy-winning vocalist, Lisa Fischer, and Kennedy Center Artistic Director for Jazz, Jason Moran.

Livestream Productions by NSP

We have been producing livestreams for years. For Merce Cunningham Trust’s centennial event, “Night of 100 Solos,” we live-streamed three in-person performances from three cities in one day (London, Los Angeles and New York). In 2020-21, our team produced Jacob’s Pillow’s first-ever Virtual Festival, Vail Dance’s Digital Festival and live-streamed virtual benefits for many dance companies. Not all performance or virtual event broadcasts remain online after they air, but we’ve shared some examples of broadcasts and our experiences filming them on our blog.

“I personally truly appreciated not having to worry about anything since for the smaller projects, I am usually the person who has to figure everything out. Nel brought in a professional staff to handle all aspects of the project which made for smooth sailing the whole way.”
