My first project in Audiovisual Design at the Willem de Kooning Academy.
It was a great first insight into working with a subject, and improvising with what I had.
I only used a Gopro and asked a fellow dancer for help and I am to this day very proud of what i was able to accomplish with my limited knowledge of video at the time.
Teaser trailer for IFFR Shorts Film Festival. A project we had the privilege to be a part of .
