Choreography 365: Day 86 - Indoor Poi

A poi/dance mix took my fancy tonight.

Music = Chaplin by Infected Mushroom.

Choreography 365: Day 53 - Poi

I spent yesterday traveling from Bristol to my Nan's in Harlow so no access to internet.

I am currently sitting in Koln/Bonn airport in Germany waiting for our connecting flight to Dresden.

This is a video I put together yesterday of a play with my poi in the park on Sunday.

I thought it would be interesting to reverse the footage to see if my forward and reverse weave are different.  Can you tell?

Choreography 365: Day 16 - Bike Lights 2

So I found myself today going back to the bike light poi from yesterday.  I decided to use my head torch which is a dual light along with another front light.  Once I had done the usual import and trim to the clip I started playing around with the effects.  I'm afraid I couldn't help myself when it came to the negative setting!

I have added normal video below so you can see where it came from, that and I like both :)

Music is Prenzlauerberg by Beirut http://www.beirutband.com/   See you tomorrow!

Choreography 365: Day 15 - Bike Lights

I realized today that this project is really starting to improve my creativity.  After running through a couple of ideas and really not feeling any of them I suddenly had a spark of inspiration after having a discussion about bike lights with my housemates.

I have been meaning to do some work with bike lights as hand held poi for some time.  This is an idea that came about while working with a fire troupe in Devon about three years ago and spending a lot of time working with poi and palm torches.

The music today is Elevation by Infected Mushroom.
