Artist bio

I am an up and coming international music producer and film maker who's primary goal in life is to express humanities deepest emotions through visual and musical art. There is no better feeling in life than creating a piece of art that truly connects with its audience and leaves a long lasting memory or way of feeling. Ella Vernali: a young and talented Nashville native who's biggest passion in life is the art of dance and choreography. Sam Zacovic: another young bright mind from Nashville, TN who's interests range from health & fitness to photography & film making. Javier Rosada: aka Jay Andre - this is my artist name/brand.

Artist Statement

I am beyond grateful and excited to share this collaboration with the rest of the world! Engage Art inspired us to join forces across the globe in such a way that we brought out the best of each other through this production. We had to overcame several challenges as we put it all together especially with the distance and current restrictions due to the pandemic. But we are really pleased with the final product and we cannot wait to share it with y'all!

How it fits into contest

With everything going on in the world today, we decided to join forces with a couple old friends from the great music city of Nashville, and create this artistic expression through dance, film and music. We thought long and hard about our intention for this piece and how we would convey such strong yet contradicting emotions - strictly through artistic movements of the human body. The concept stems from the internal and external struggles we all face, and continue to face as we evolve and overcome the various challenges and tests life presents us. As she steps into the scene, and gets into her element, she is faced with her most inner fears and worries. Throughout song and dance she builds up her confidence and feels God's protection looking after her. As she releases all emotions and manages to express herself in the language she knows best (dance) she overcomes those forces around her continuously trying to get a hold of her mind and attempting to lead her astray. Through God's unconditional love and protection, she is reminded that she is safe, eternal and blessed to be alive and is able to remain positive through it all.

Transcript / Lyrics

Hey it's Jay'
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
Leave all worries behind
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
Who cares if we collide
Leave all worries behind
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
It's alright
Take a piece of my mind
It's alright
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
Who care if we collide
Leave all worries behind
Take a piece of my mind
Leave all worries behind
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
Who cares if we collide
As long as the feeling is right
Take a piece of my mind
Take a piece of my mind
It's alright
Take a piece of my mind
It's alright
Take a piece of my mind
It's alright
Staying up until we are satisfied
Who cares if we collide
As long as the feeling is right
