    paper Call Out Jam 2025 – Helsinki

    I had the opportunity on the 6th June to capture the energy and artistry of Call Out Jam 2025, a premier breakdance event in Helsinki. The festival brought together dancers from across Finland and beyond, showcasing dynamic battles, performances, and community moments. My role involved filming key highlights, emphasizing both the skill of the performers and the vibrant atmosphere of the event. The resulting visuals convey the movement, emotion, and spirit of the breakdance community in action.
