We shot this video in the National Park Zuid-Kennemerland near Het Vogelmeer
For this video we had to ask Megan (the dancer), to dress with dance clothes in the middle of a very cold Dutch winter in January and the worse was to ask her to get in the water. She made it look like it was summertime. She was incredible. Because it’s a national park we could only get to the location with bicycles, which meant we didn’t have any comforting warm clothes for Megan after we finished each shoot.
This 60 seconds video is a shorter version from the original, which was created for Dutch National Ballet’s program ‘Present/s’ in February 2012.
For this program together with Mathieu, we created about 9 short films, each video had to fit in in some ways with each of the 9 new ballet that were created for the company in February. This video was created to be played before Alexei Ratmansky’s new creation.
