Thaw (Final Cut Pro)
Also an original piece, a collaboration through the Ping Chong performance class combining live dance and digital rear-screen projection. I conceived the piece around the soul in winter struggling between darkness and light. It consisted the following movements:
- Sacred candle light (w/ clarinet),
- The individual's reaction to the elements of nature (video projections of bluescreened performers and snow footage),
- Darkness and despair (digital mix of poem text -cabin fever),
- and a resolution (spring).
I coordinated the piece, provided text/theme, and creating visual media including shooting video footage of dancers shot in front a blue screen and outdoor scenes and editing layers together with Final Cut Pro.
