This video is designed to explain Tonal Vision’s approach to shooting dance performances for videographers who will be working with us.
Dance editing is very different than other types of projects. Dance performance videos are designed show the choreography and highlight the performances of skilled dancers.
Typically all performers in these numbers do the same moves, and the dancers are often strung across the stage in a line.
For this category of dancers, editing can make a huge difference in the apparent quality of the performance.
These dances typically present fluid movement, attractive body line, and posed patterns on the stage, but they may also include grand leaps and other dramatic moves.
These dance forms focus more on energy of the dance than the beauty of line, although line is still a factor. Jazz and hip hop use movements in isolated parts of the body to dramatize. Tap is mostly about the feet.
