Hey what's up, I'm JRock. I play the Dark Doctor. He's evil and he's just building
this uprising to go against the LXD. I was, I've always been like a club dancer,
street dancer, um I didn't find my specific style until about 2000, which was popping.
And popping is a very, has a wide range of styles, so you can do things illusional
stuff, like waving to what Madd Chadd does with roboting or to what Shonnie
and Aja and Terence are doing with boogaloo. I kind of like play with all these different
styles. So I'm only bringing one side of my dance to the Dark Doctor character as of right
now. It's just more like illusional, dark, glitchy stuff. The popping is more of a
funky, happy dance. You know we're doing this to funk music of G-funk or hip hop or electro
and usually it's a celebration, it feels very good. But it also, you know popping has
a very hard side to it too, so you can express yourself through this dance. Yeah,
when I first heard about LXD, I was just blown away. It's not just about dance anymore.
It's also storytelling and then it's adding a bit of drama to it. It's the next
step in the evolution of how dance is being shot and it's more about the dance and not
the hype. It's a totally different approach.
