From Stage to Screen
This piece, originally performed by our dancers in the October 2024 production of Shadows at the Harlow Playhouse, was adapted into a video format, blending the energy of live performance with the aesthetics of on-location filming. Seeing the students shift from stage to screen so seamlessly was inspiring.
Braving the Chill 🥶
With the temperature dipping to a chilly 4-5°C, the dancers faced the cold head-on. between takes, everyone stayed wrapped up and kept warm, but when it was time to perform, they delivered with energy and fire.
The Perfect Setting
The Harvey Centre car park turned out to be an ideal location for Badman. With its urban vibe and open rooftop views, it provided the perfect backdrop for the energy and rawness of the piece. Equipped with a battery pack, portable speakers, and lighting, we transformed the space into a dynamic filming set that amplified the power of the number.
Teamwork and Talent
Our dancers worked together effortlessly, embodying the spirit of teamwork. From nailing choreography to adapting quickly to the filming environment, they showed dedication and professionalism.
