Some of us dream of making the team. Sports choreographer Hernando Planells creates the team, big-screen style.
You’ve seen his sports scenes in films such as Coach Carter, The Longest Yard and Spider-Man 3. But they’re just a part of his story.
Planells’ coaching career began at age 19; at 20, he became the nation’s youngest varsity basketball coach, at Immaculate Heart High in Arizona. Since then, he’s led high school, college and professional teams and conducted coaching clinics across the U.S. and abroad, most recently as head coach for the Ryukyu Golden Kings in Okinawa, Japan.
The "Rising Stars" Acting camp hosted by veteran acting coach Hernando Planells is a unique experience that is devoted on providing students an experience in being in front of the camera, acting on a commercial or hosting a show on Nickelodeon. The camp offers a hands on approach which gives students the opportunity to develop their creative skills.
Be sure to pick up the February 23rd issue of ESPN the Magazine! (Dwight Howard is on the cover). Coach Hernando was part of a panel of people who were asked about what they look for in a slam dunk. You can find his remarks on the Page 2 Section of the magazine.
