Possible Dancing

Been working on a new dance film. I’ve built a white stage in the studio, with a white cyclorama. On which a dancer, painted white and wearing a white tutu and top, will dance. This really plays havoc with the white balance on the camera.

The white dancer dances on a [white] plinth, while all manner of exciting things go on round about her.

We spent most of Friday working out the moves, moves of both camera and dancer.

The camera is a Sony Z1 mounted, for the most part, on a Manfrotto FigRig, as devised by Mike Figgis for his film Hotel, which was all shot on the Z1.
