Nelson Carvajal height - How tall is Nelson Carvajal?

Carvajal's trailer mashup "Apehood" was nominated for a 2015 Webby Award. The video was a twist on Boyhood (2014) and provided a vision of the film told through the experiences of Caesar the ape from Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011) and Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014).

In 2014 Nelson was voted as one of Chicago's Top 50 Figures in Film by Newcity Magazine.

On the evening of Tuesday February 19, 2013, Nelson uploaded his Best Picture Oscar Supercut video to Vimeo. The video immediately went viral and was featured in Entertainment Weekly, Esquire, Mashable, The Hollywood Reporter and several other news outlets. It reached nearly half a million views in less than a week.

His video installation art show "Film Is Dead: Edges of the Digital Frame" premiered in Chicago, Illinois on February 2, 2012.

Nelson Carvajal, the oldest son of Maria Hernandez and Nelson G. Carvajal, was born in the city of Chicago, Illinois and grew up in the Logan Square neighborhood. From the time he was eight years old, Nelson immersed himself in movies; whether it was reading Roger Ebert in the weekly Chicago Sun-Times or staying up late watching old VHS tapes of "Goodfellas" and "Dog Day Afternoon," it was apparent that this young individual was in love with the cinema. While attending Chicago's Lane Tech College Prep High School, Nelson's concentration was in Theater Tech Studies, an area that coincided with movies and gave Nelson the opportunity to direct one-act plays. In 2002 Nelson, only a junior in high school, achieved early admission into the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. By high school graduation, however, Nelson wasn't realistically equipped to survive financially in New York (he was the first in his immediate family to go to college). As a result, Nelson enrolled at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point. There on campus, Nelson became a film critic in the Arts & Entertainment section of the university's newspaper "The Pointer.

The lab where Nelson had his chemistry class during his sophomore year of high school in 2000 is the same lab where John Cusack filmed his high school flashback scene for High Fidelity (2000). Nelson's chemistry teacher also played the teacher (in an uncredited role) in the much admired Stephen Frears film.

Some of his favorite films include Dog Day Afternoon (1975), Stroszek (1977), and Magnolia (1999).
