Little 5 Year Old DJ – 2011
Just a dad having some fun with his son and a camera. Dionysus following in dad’s footsteps as he rocks out to dad’s track. The mixing skills are on point, but don’t sleep on the dancing moves though. Music: Lula vs. Wilson Santos “The DJ, the Music and Me” Eddie Cumana mix for Kult Records. Shot, directed, edited by Wilson Santos.
On The Dominican Road – 2009
A typical Dominican road trip from Santo Domingo to Bavaro and back. The image quality sucks since this was shot with a cheap 3meg digital camera, but you get the idea. I could’ve used some Bachata as background music, but this is done as a visual homage to Jack Kerouac’s “On the Road” and Kerouac didn’t listen to Bachata. Coltrane and Miles seemed more appropriate.
NYU Student Films (1994)
This collection of student films was originally shot on 16mm B&W stock in 1994, during a 6 week intensive film course at New York University, Tisch School of the Arts where Wilson Santos studied. After years of lugging a green rucksack full of these old film reels from apartment to apartment, Santos finally rescued them from oblivion, projected them on a screen and re-shot them using a Canon T2i. Although Santos hasn’t produced another film since then, choosing instead to write, produce music, design, study and educate, looking at these shorts and now working as a professor at Full Sail University has inspired Santos to grab a camera and start shooting again. Let’s see what 2013 brings.
*All films were written, directed, produced, and edited by Santos at NYU, 1994.

Who is an Artist? (2013)
you are, who sees beauty in a leper’s face
when no one else will even glance
you who in moments of shame, still smile
because “life ain’t that serious,” you say
who at night sits in silence to hear the moon’s whisper,
because inspiration is born in those words Read the rest of this entry
