Levi Avelino Brito born in Aparecida de Goiânia, Goiás May 29, 2006, better known as Levi Avelino, is a Brazilian beatmaker, musician, producer and composer. He became known in 2017 for making singing and dancing videos for YouTube and Facebook platforms. It all started very early, at the age of 10, when he decided to create his first YouTube channel, one of the most viral videos on his channel was of him singing and dancing to Ana Vilela's song "Trem Bala". Another of the videos that went viral that same year was of him playing the game "Virando a garrafa" (Turning the Bottle), where Levi succeeded in all five attempts to leave the bottle standing upright. In the same year, Levi created a profile on the Facebook social network to post his videos, which went viral and many users shared them, and a while later he became a professional video editor. He soon began producing and composing his music using only a computer and a cell phone. At the age of 15, and as an independent artist he has released more than 4 music albums, Levi has been featured in several newspapers and news sites, and is already a big hit on the social networks, being also a content creator he reaches not only the juvenile public but the adults as well.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
