Dance short film
2021
I was prompted to make a short, little film for the final part of my Dance on Camera class, but I ended up making a film that was a little more than required because I got so into all the aspects that come with creating one. I wanted to depict this person that has to escape to this isolated area in order to connect with their inner spirit. I used quick cuts in the beginning to depict the urgency of the person trying to escape/quickly get to a place where they can meet and connect with this spirit. As the person is getting closer you see the connection grow, and then you can hear the connection swelling until they’re on the same plane, communicating. But they can’t meet forever, they have to leave eventually, except things are lighter, brighter, and calmer than before. This can be seen through slow walk-aways, a steady bright glow transition, and then a calm rainy evening. A stroll home, with no umbrella, and no hurry to get out of the rain.
