Today's moment of video joy. The beauty pageant contest's talent is brilliant.
Too bad she wasn't trying to write a sketch for SNL.
The Anaheim Ballet get's it.
They produced a great series of videos specifically for YouTube and MySpace (link) promotions.
The clips are great, the production is really nice and simple. It's just short videos of their company in rehearsal spaces in rehearsal clothes just showing what makes dance so awesome -
bodies moving in space, defying gravity.
Then there's edutaining series of dancer profiles and interviews with members of the company answering your most pressing ballet questions like - What's up with men in tights?
I have always had a thing for ballet men! A number of my childhood crushes were on dancers in the Richmond Ballet company. Sigh!
Video: Show us some great dancing.
I love dancing so much that I post a lot of videos about dancing I am interested in dance as both public performance and personal expression
here is one I made of my friend Mary:
Mary is not a great bowler but she is an awesome DANCER! - Watch as Mary Dances at Lesure Time Bowling Alley
It's no secret how much I LOVE tap dancing so I am always thrilled to find it pop-up in unexpected places. Example, here is a kick-ass tap dance number from the Japanese samurai film Zatochi.
The L Word community in Second Life requested a pole.. that's right, a pole for dancing on.
Who are we not to give it to them?
And here we have a kind of embarrassing photo of my avatar doing a rather provocative dance on said pole.
I really didn't think I would actually have such feelings for my 'self-as-avatar'; but someone tipped me so, hey!
These are the kind of moments where I am proud of my current gig.
Here are a few more snapshots from a Saturday night at the SL L Word dance club. It's a pretty hoppin' place. Mari met me there, we were talking on the phone the entire time and cracking up! Very Interactive TV-type experience.
Swedish group Sweptaways does a'cappella Wuthering Heights in the style of American Apparel, but better.
Sexy, because glitter covered cleavage is generally considered so, and funny because this image was selected randomly when I uploaded the video. Vox is naughty!
Sexy, Funny, is also the working title for the documentary series which, I will finally get down to editing this weekend.
I cut this tease from interviews and performances of two tip-top burlesque performers, Miss Clams Casino and Little Brooklyn. The shoots were produced by myself and Ilise Carter. We'll have about a 3O min film once the individual episodes are all put together!
