The project:

Mia: dancer/choreographer
Me: cinematographer/video editor
Kendall: Isadora techie

We have one song that we're using. It's an instrumental by Rjd2.
Mia has choreographed to it.
I plan to record her dancing in different places. I would particularly like to record her on the DNA spiral bridge at Archer and 13th.
We need a still background for her dancing in which there will be no movement, because we plan to record different takes of her movement and overlapping them on Isadora to create the image of multiple Mias dancing and communicating with each other.
I want to work with a lot of different angles and effects in the recording itself, so that we have a strong base to add effects to on Isadora.
The music provides a really curious vibe to the piece, so I'm really excited.
I don't want to give away the rest though.
We haven't had much of a chance to film yet, because all three of us have been out of town and/or busy with mid term studying. However, we plan to film this week.
