If I could sum up those amazing 4 days and 3 nights of workshops and social dancing I've recently attended in Boracay Island, this would be it!
A month ago, at the onset of my physical and emotional recovery from an injury and the loss of my pet cat, I decided to push through with going to my first-ever dance festival for this year 2023. I needed some time out from the "down-spiraling" of my life. It would also be a shame to waste the airfare and event ticket which I'd already purchased back then. This time around I was with a few bunches of friends. The more, the merrier!
I promised myself not to dance because of the said injury although my doctor didn't stop me from doing, only to be just careful and not exert too much so I opted to work on shooting videos of the event but my itchy feet couldn't hold back. I danced during socials but exempted myself from the workshops except for a few that I wanted to learn so badly and that was Tarraxo and Zouk.
Will be writing more about this trip/event sometime in the future but this video already tells you so much about how epic this event was and how much fun I enjoyed dancing and shooting. There were several artists and dance enthusiasts who attended from other places here in the Phlippines and from other countries so it was a great opportunity to make new connections in the Afro-latin dance community.
Again, I'm no pro and I'm only using my Go Pro 9 for taking videos which already did a decent job. My only challenge was shooting in low light so I brought with me a portable LED light that I used. At first, I felt awkward carrying it but for the love of taking and editing dance videos. Then why not?
Anyways, I gathered way too many videos and didn't realize how tedious it is to go through each file one by one but I had to so I can produce this shortened version of what transpired during this fun event. I guess it took me about 5 days just to finish this so please enjoy watching till the end! Let me know your thoughts!
Love,
Clara
