Redefining Art. Preserving Creativity.
In 2017, Egalitarian Arts was co-created by filmmaker David-Timothy Legel and visual artist Andy Aguila. The organization was convinced as a multimedia production company aimed at developing mission-driven projects to highlight egalitarian values.
Our Journey Has Just Begun. Here's Where We Started.
At age 13, while living in the San Fernando Valley, David-Timothy began his journey in video production, creative writing, and new media publishing. By age 16, his ambitions would push him to write & direct his first half-hour TV pilot named "How We Got Here."
It was during this project that David would meet his first major collaborator, Andy Aguila, who quickly became a major driving force in evolving the organization into a more philosophical, liberal arts institution.
After refining the concept between high school and their early college years, the two would adopt an official name and mission statement by 2016. By 2017, the organization would be solidified by the release of the short film, I Can't Save You, and begin development on two new TV pilots.
From 2018 to 2020, the organization went on to produce, acquire, and publish multiple award-winning projects. During this period, the team had also expanded from 2 to 8 members, all with the shared interest of using art and media as a tool for supporting Egalitarian values in both society and politics.
However, after the onset of a worsening pandemic, the organization's final project before going on a hiatus would be a TV pilot for a series called Capitol Joe. Due to the state of the entertainment industry and shared financial challenges, all but two of the foundation's team had disbanded by early 2021.
With grim projections and limited resources, the foundation decided to place nearly all of its projects on hold. Between 2021 and the present day, the organization has been in a state of ongoing hibernation.
Though David and Andy's attention is now occupied by their full-time jobs in marketing, their dedication to Egalitarian Arts has by no means wavered. In due time, given the right resources, they plan on returning to build the foundation back up, stronger than ever.
