Music Video: Vienna Teng puts on dancing shoes in "Level Up"

Inspiring, surprising video features dancer Tommy Guns Ly



Love this marvelous music video for "Level Up" by singer/songwriter Vienna Teng, from her fifth studio album Aims. Crowdfunded by fans, and directed by Lawrence Chen, whose work I've been a fan of for years, it features Vienna dancing, and much more. It's a surprising, inspiring and uplifting video that goes to unexpected places. Take a look:




That spinning phenom who steals the show is Tommy Guns Ly, a 24-year-old dancer and founder of the ILL-Abilities crew, who lost his right leg to osteosarcoma as a teenager. His lack of a leg certainly hasn't stopped him from kicking more ass than most of us do with all limbs intact. Awesome video, all around.
