More Dancing…!
continuing the theme of dance… I really wanted to share this video.
But first let me ask you a question. When was the last time you were moved by a tv advert? yeah it’s not to common right! but every now and then an ad really hits you as powerful. Well this is one such advert.
This is an ad for an English Cellular (mobile) phone company called Orange and the purpose of this Ad was to encourage existing customers to stay with Orange. Now I know we are all different, and some of us would need good reason to stay with a company. solid facts and figures, that’s why you should stay. But some of us need to be reached on a more emotional level, and for me this advert is just brilliant.
But as great as this advert might have been in fulfilling its goal, as an artistic piece of work I love it so much. I find myself drawn to it in moments of inner turmoil, and I am steadied by the gentle rhythm and the movement, the coloring and camera work also, everything fits perfectly.
You see it might look like turmoil, it might look like random pieces of life fluttering and spinning in uncontrollable directions, but actually if it could be seen through a camera it might look more like a dance, a wonderful modern dance that is not concerned with the legalities of ‘time’ but rather the grace of rhythm. could it be that I am in a dance? That’s where I need you to tell me. because from my perspective its turmoil, but from yours it might look like…
By Way Of An Explanation…
As some of you might know I have an irrational hatred of dancing, actually you could call it a phobia! When i was a kid I could not even stand being in the same room as any kind of live dancing was being undertaken. If anything came on the tv I HAD to change the channel. now I am older the phobia is somewhat lessened, but still in tact within certain situations. eg, ‘disco’ dancing, really it is anything that takes it self seriously. anyway this blessay by English commedian Stephen Fry is about as good as it can get in explaining this phobia as he himself is a dance phobic also. Enjoy this, this man is incredibly articulate. and although I am not quite to his extreme, I once was and feel that on this subject we are as kin.
