Training Directors -- the serious version
Danielle DeVor replied to Alexandra's topic in Ballet News & Issues
I think a good start would be a course dealing with dance psychology. Namely being aware of body dysmorphic disorders, the stress and strain of performing, and how to tell a dancer what they need to work on amicably. -
I just wanted to make a comment about this particluar DVD. It has been discussed in the past that the camera does not show dancers well because is records things in a 2 dimentional space instead of the 3 dimentional view of the human eye. I think the cinematographer did a great job in this case. For the first time, I saw a dvd that actually makes the illusion that you are watching a 3 dimentional performance. I have seen many plays and dance performances, and I honestly could not see a difference except for the editing of the scenes, between watching a performance up close and personal and

Also, a new author on the scene is a writer named Kat Corbett- she has written 2 books so far and both of them are really great. She is easily found on amazon or barnes and nobel

Though another thought is that the advent of digitally produced images. A high quality digital video camera, usually used in the making of independant film, comes equipped with a special lens that enables the tape to have a more three dimentional quality. That is also what they use when producing major effects masterpieces. You would just have to make sure to get a high quality camera with a 3 crystal lens and make sure that you can edit it on a computer. That will preserve the integrity of the three dimentionality of the recording. Then what has been recorded can be transferred to video

Why not combine Giselle with a production of the silent film Nosferatu. Albrecht could be Harker, or even Renfield. The willies could be the vampire brides. And Hilarion could be Nosferatu himself. Complete with a sndtk by the vampire band Type O Negative. Though using specially created songs for the production unlike the dub job they did when they matched the silent film to Type O Negative music that was never intended for the purpose.

Well Kevin I wrote Jacqeuline and she hasn't seen any, but she said if she found one she would let me know. At least that is more people looking for it. -
