KEEPING THE ZING...

What an exciting 2 weeks / weekend. I shall take a vow to only drink water and teas for this week, no wine, no champagne , nothing proof!

Well to start off, i took some of the soloists in the Atlantic Ballet Theatre of Canada into our 2nd studio, which is used for filming and rehearsals with the set before we head to the theatre. We put up some lights, brought some clothes to choose from, blasted the music, used Kyles camera and shot ourselves a wee music video to an up-coming single i am releasing world-wide on iTunes. THe track is called 'I Felt Space Or So I Thought' and i have to say it is one of my favorite ones to date.

So i really wanted to add a third dimension. The Idea behind it was a dark, dimly lit, club vibe, very sensual and very sexy, which the song isn't necessarily , i feel it has a more uplifting quality... but this is just the vision i had for my first official music video. It was a lot of fun to shoot. I filmed and edited it, so i wasnt expecting some great master piece from myself, but i look on it as an achievement and also at the fun we had making it. It does of course help to have insanely talented friends to star in it.

Take a look!!

We Also , this last weekend had a party... The Models : High Fashion Couture Party Extravaganza. The idea was to create a couture or zany stylish look. We had an absolute blast! We all had to catwalk our looks as well as have a photoshoot when we entered the party. What really helped the party along was the open bar of complimentary Cosmos ! I do know how to through a party!

We also opened on Friday for our 8 week run of World of Shadows : The Phantom - Phantom of the Opera the Ballet. I have a really fantastic role, Raoul, Christine's Lover who has to fight the Phantom. Its exciting, lots of dancing and LOTS of acting. So i am going to enjoy such a long run where we can really develop the character and our artistry a lot.

Heres a sneak preview of The Phantom: World Of Shadows - the story of the phantom of the opera.

Keeping extremely busy really does add some zing into my step. I do enjoy being busy and productive and urge everyone to not let a moment slip by.

NEW BLOG, NEW START!

Well ! its been over a year since i blogged. i guess i didn't realize how popular my blog was until i saw that visitor stats, and thought maybe it was time i got back on this old thingy!

Well , a lot has happened since i last wrote. I am now, as i am sure most of you are aware, in Canada! Its so beautiful here! And , rather ironically, its officially 'CANADA DAY'

So my friends and I are heading down to the river to watch the fireworks and enjoy the Canadian festivities! Who knows! Maybe we might actually get the flag painted on our faces... thats what they do right?

Work is hard. We are working on Phantom of the Opera the Ballet, which we have already toured in a sell out tour in Germany and then around the Atlantic of Canada. Its an 8 week run, which is quite long for us. Then a we start 'GHOSTS OF VIOLENCE' again. We already had the premier in Ottawa in February , but now we do a huge Nationwide tour all over Canada, which is so freaking exciting! Dates ect of when and where the shows will be are on the company website (www.atlanticballet.ca) They also made it into a film! and we have some preview excerpts available to preview. Its a very important issue that we tackle with the ballet... Domestic Violence. So i really enjoy doing the lead role in this ballet. Its important that this ballet is strong enough to firstly raise awareness but also to entice a dialogue and give the victims so kind of voice.
