DWEL ONE. ITD,BMC, 'CIRCLE T'
In 1984, during this developmental stage, the movie Style Wars was released, an hourlong documentary chronicling the breakdancing and graffiti scenes in New York City, the birthplace of the forms. A change of genre for director Shawn Levy (Cheaper By The Dozen, The Pink Panther remake) with a Steven Spielberg-produced story of robot boxing. Set mainly in a futuristic ‘Texas', the movie was made entirely in Michigan, around the Motor City, Detroit.Even the ‘San Leandro' fairground, where Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) pits his 'bot Ambush against a live bull, was built from.
When did you start painting?
i started writing in 1997. I messed around with graffiti prior to that at the skate parks
and in school on notebooks and desks just dicking around. But 97 was the year I started to actively paint.
Where are you from and how did you get involved with graffiti?
iam from the northeast . I first got into graffiti threw skateboarding, seeing it at the local parks and everywhere
we skated in the city, tags were within eye shot . There was one day I remember above the rest we used to skate
inside an abandoned toy store and one day we went around the back to get in and there was a 'spoke ' throw up
it Was mind blowing at the time to see a piece of real graffiti right in my face. That's my first memory of good graffiti.
Me and a few friends started painting soon after and are still at it all these years later.
What would you call your style? what other writers or artists have influenced and inspired your work?
i would say my style was adapted from painting on freights.
I wanted DWEL to be highly readable on a passing trains or parked off the highway.
I have a long list of inspirations my main partner from day one is DRIFT ,
Everyone in my crew and the crews I am in have all been a huge inspiration, we all build off each other .
Being from the Northeast and seeing a lot of really good straight letters, guided my style in that direction from day one.
What keeps you going?
What motivates me is an easy question, I thoroughly enjoy the act of painting.
Its good times with good friends. Its something I feel I need to do to stay sane.
I think it's a really strange obsession to have.
You gain nothing from doing it, never made a cent off graffiti, risk arrest and court fees and jail time.
It's all to have a good time, but that's what I like to do .
So be it. One of the few things in life I can depend to always be there.
Do you paint walls, freeways, other surfaces besides steel?
I paint fr8s mostly these days and recently been into seeking out spots no one else paints in the middle of no where.
I have done my fair share of subways, tracksides, highways,
I have and still hit the streets from time to time but was never huge street bomber .
Any yard fights or any chases?
one out of many chases comes to mind. We were way to comfortable at a yard up north.
We were in the yard 10 deep daytime 3 feet of snow on the ground.
We've been there for a few hours doing more cars then we should have and boom the bull comes flying towards us
on the access road. We all start to run at the same time , and all of us instantly fall over in the deep snow,
cans and bags flying all over the place .finally get off the tracks run threw a warehouse hit the street 10 deep with
huge bags and latters and the whole nine yards .
Somehow we all got away but made for one funny slow speed chase threw the deep snow.
How were you put down with the krews you rep today?
ITD crew was started by me and Drift back in 1999. I was put down with Circle T by Aves, we are all a really tight knit group ,
not to many outsiders , we keep spots crew spots .
Was also put down in BMC by Space just by all of us painting together a lot.
good crew great friends .
What type of paint set up do you usually use?
I use mostly rusto, ill outline with fancy paint time to time.
I have been using drilled out ny fats for pretty much everything as of lately thanks Laqur .
also I get caps from Trout Art Supply.com
How do you feel about the new era of graffiti and trains today?
I feel good about a lot of new writers. there are so many younger writers exploring with older styles and creating really good work .
Steel Is Reelgraffiti Movies & Documentaries 2017
As long as people keep painting this will go on forever . And respect others that came before you ,
and everything is golden . As far as people starting to do graffiti to become sponsored or to get rich off this

Steel is a 1997 American superhero film based on the DC Comics character of the same name. The film stars Shaquille O'Neal as John Henry Irons and his alter-ego Steel, Annabeth Gish as his wheelchair-using partner Susan Sparks, and Judd Nelson as their rival Nathaniel Burke. The plot centers on an accident caused by Burke which leaves Sparks paralyzed. The accident results in Irons quitting his job. Burke begins mass-producing weapons and selling them to criminals. In order to stop Burke, Irons and Sparks create a suit of armor that leads Irons to become the superhero Steel.
Written and directed by Kenneth Johnson,[2] the film separates itself from the comic book series (and John Henry Irons' status as a supporting character of Superman) by using original protagonists and antagonists. On its initial release, Steel was a box office bomb and was panned by critics, who complained about the film's 'cheesiness' and bad acting.[3]
Plot[edit]
John Henry Irons (Shaquille O'Neal) is a weapons designer who invents high-tech laser guns, protective armor, and sonic sound cannons for the United States military. One soldier, Nathaniel Burke (Judd Nelson), decides to show just what Irons' weapons can do and sets one of Irons' sonic cannons at the highest power setting, firing the device at an abandoned building. However, the weapon backfires and destroys the building the team is situated in. Irons' partner, Susan 'Sparky' Sparks (Annabeth Gish), is crushed by a large slab of concrete in the ensuing chaos. In court, Irons reveals Burke's role in the incident and Burke is dismissed from the military. Because his weapons resulted in Sparks becoming a paraplegic, Irons resigns in disgust. Meanwhile, Burke hatches a plot to sell Irons' weapons to criminal gangs, recruiting a video arcade manager to help him carry out this deed.
Irons witnesses a bank robbery organized by gang members wielding Burke's modified guns; they escape before he can interrogate them on where they obtained the weapons. The gang does not tell Irons anything when confronted directly in their hideout. Irons visits Sparks in a veteran's hospital and takes her to his own assembled laboratory, where he hopes he and Sparks can create weapons needed to combat the criminals. With the help of Uncle Joe (Richard Roundtree), they forge a suit of armor and the weaponry necessary for Irons to carry out his war on crime and become the vigilante 'Steel'. However, during his crusade against crime, Irons is pursued by the cops and is forced to return to his lair. The next night, the robbers arrange to rob another bank. Irons, as Steel, tries to stop them, but is hindered by the robbers' weapons. When Irons returns to his grandmother's (Irma P. Hall) house, he is arrested.
Meanwhile, Burke prepares to auction off all his modified weapons to every criminal organization in the world over the Internet. When Irons is released from jail, Sparky is captured by Burke's thugs. Irons, as Steel, attempts to infiltrate Burke's headquarters, but is captured himself in the process. When Burke continues with the auction, he is tricked by Steel, which allows him and Sparks to rebel and destroy Burke's lair. Burke himself is killed when a laser he fires towards Steel reflects back towards him due to Steel's suit. After this, Steel, Sparky, Joe, and Martin (Ray J) escape Burke's lair.
The following day, Col. David (Charles Napier) talks to actor Arnold Schwarzenegger (actually Irons via voice changer) about Steel and the events on what happened the day before and offers him to help before realising it is actually Irons who he is talking to and after that, Irons declines David's offer.
In the grand opening of her restaurant, Irons' grandmother tells him about Steel and then tells Joe that everyone would be proud of his heroism. After Sparky shows the new modifications of her wheelchair that allows her to walk, Irons smiles and hugs her.

Production[edit]
Production of the film Steel started with music producer Quincy Jones and his partner David Salzman.[4] Both Jones and Salzman were fans of the Steel character, especially Jones, who found personal reasons to support the project.[4] Jones stated that he found children's 'perspective on the future has changed for the worse, and I hate seeing young people who don't believe in the future. Steel—and I don't want to use that word 'superhero,' because he doesn't fly or anything like that—represents a role model. Let's just call him a 'super human being.'[4]
Writing[edit]
Kenneth Johnson was the screenwriter and director of Steel. Johnson was originally uninterested in doing a superhero film, having previously turned down offers to film adaptations of The Bionic Woman, Alien Nation, and The Incredible Hulk.[4] Film producer Joel Simon described Steel as being different, stating that he was 'a knight in shining armor in a contemporary setting'.[4] Johnson removed Steel's cape from his costume to reflect this.[4]
Johnson described Steel's persona as a 'blue-collar Batman' and removed Steel from his comic book storyline and replaced it with protagonists and antagonists of his own invention.[4] To aid with the urban aspects of the dialog Johnson took a copy of the script to South Central Los Angeles and spent a day with a group of kids to ensure that the language of some of the characters was more believable.[4] Throughout the film and script, Johnson created several allusions to his previous television seriesAlien Nation.[5]
Filming[edit]
The filming schedule consisted of fifty-one days with thirty-two full nights of shooting in downtown Los Angeles.[6] The shooting schedule presented difficulties for the director due to the schedule of the star Shaquille O'Neal. O'Neal was already committed for playing in the 1996 Summer Olympics, and training at the Los Angeles Lakers' camp in Hawaii.[4] This left Johnson with five weeks to complete filming all scenes with O'Neal.[4] O'Neal had one read-through of the script before the Olympics and then worked with acting coach Ben Martin in between games to work on his character. When O'Neal returned to act with the rest of the cast, he had all his lines memorized.[4]
Music[edit]
As well as acting in the film, Shaquille O'Neal contributed to the soundtrack for the film. The single 'Men of Steel' has him featured alongside rappers KRS-One, Ice Cube, B-Real, and Peter Gunz. The soundtrack was released on Quincy Jones' record label Qwest Records and included songs featured in the film and songs inspired by it.[6] The album charted in the United States on the Billboard 200 at number 185 and on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums at number 26.[7]
Release[edit]
Box office[edit]
Steel was released in the United States on August 15, 1997.[1]Steel was considered a large box office bomb on its release with an estimated budget of $16 million, the film grossed just over $1.7 million at the box office.[1]
Reception[edit]
Real Life Documentaries Youtube Videos
Steel was critically panned upon its original release. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a rating of 12%, based on 26 reviews, with an average rating of 3.04/10. The site's consensus reads, 'Steel is a badly-acted movie that indulges not only in superhero clichés, but also the sappy TV-movie-of-the-week ones.'[3] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of 'B' on an A+ to F scale.[8]
Leonard Kladly of Variety wrote that the film is 'too broad and episodic to attract anything other than the most undemanding crowd.'[9] Peter Stack of the San Francisco Chronicle described it as a 'tolerable stinker of a film' that 'plays like a Saturday morning cartoon.'[10] Lawrence Van Gelder of The New York Times stated that the film is 'slow to gather momentum and generates little excitement or tension.'[11] Shaquille O'Neal earned a Razzie Award nomination as Worst Actor for his performance in the film, but lost against Kevin Costner for The Postman.[12][13]
