Finishing uo the last two videos in the Romeo and Juliet series.
One episode is on the gala for tragiclovenyc.com and the other is a different kind of mix with music by Au Revoir Simone for a great art and design site called coolhunting.com

Earlier this week I had the pleasure of interviewing Sterling and Robbie (also known as Romeo + Juliet) for an upcoming Tragic Love episode.
They were so much fun to talk to and had such great things to say… made it kind of hard to chop up into 4 minutes! One of the best things is that they both said this production is the most fun they’ve had dancing.
I’ll be “dancing” in R+J, but not until the second night of the performance, which means I’ll get to enjoy Sterling and Robbie’s performance from the audience at the gala. Can’t wait!

For the past three months or so I’ve been working hard, gathering footage and piecing it together…
I’ve been given the opportunity to show, through video over the internet, the behind-the-scenes of the making of New York City Ballet’s new full-length production of Romeo + Juliet. The ballet will have its premier at the company’s Spring Gala on May 1st, but the new mini-site (tragiclovenyc.com designed by ink&co and built by IMA) where the video diary episodes will continue to be posted went live on Thursday.
At least one new episode will be posted each week, from now until the show premiers… so this is pretty much what my computer screen will look like for the next month and a half.
It’s been a lot of fun getting to interview the people involved in the production, and to see and shoot some of the things that I usually do not see. I’m so glad that NYCB is embracing the power of the internet (sounds cheesy but true) and making this happen. I’m excited to get to share the experience with everyone and I hope you enjoy it!
