Irish Dancer is "Out of this World"!
It started with a simple idea. I heard Judah and the Lion's song "Going to Mars" and loved the challenge it presented with choreography as well as the message: You can do anything.
The shoot gradually morphed from a simple dance video into a much larger production. The more I worked on choreography, the more symbolic elements I felt compelled to include. The wings featured throughout are representative of your gifts, talents, and dreams. The monsters symbolize fear, doubt, or any obstacle that may prevent you from pursuing those dreams. However, they can be defeated!
Of course, this video proved to be quite timely given the North American solar eclipse witnessed recently. Luckily, I have some amazingly talented friends, including photographer Ron Tencati. He grabbed some footage of the eclipse for me, making the introduction infinitely more epic! To check out more of his work, visit : http://www.rontencatiphotography.com/
Also, I found out NASA has a vast amount of public domain resources! Thanks for the outer space footage and animation, NASA!! You can view their images and video here: https://images.nasa.gov/#/
And of course... you HAVE to check out Judah & the Lion if you haven't already. https://www.judahandthelion.com/
Thank you so much for watching! Hope you enjoy this video and message.
Cheers! Hannah Redlich
