Behind the Scenes: DVD Shoot
Saturday, January 27, 2007
Watch the bloopers that ended up on the cutting room floor!  
 
About the DVD:
Bay Area belly dancers have created a new business paradigm for performance DVD's. Each dancer has donated a skill (such as video editing, PR, graphic design, etc) to the collective, making this project a collaborative effort that is driven by a love of the dance rather than making a profit. Each performer will have equal and unlimited rights to reproduce and sell this labor of love. With the help of TV producer Steve Fyffe (Michelle’s husband), "By Dancers for Dancers" will be released in the Spring of 2007. Dancers include: Sandra, Mira, Nanna, Zari,  Zaheea, Luna and Michelle.
 
Michelle and Sandra in Bangalore, India
Wednesday, November 29, 2006
This podcast is about Sandra and Michelle’s performance at the Palace Grounds in Bangalore, India, December 31, 2005.  It was a whirlwind trip to the other side of the world for a single New Year’s Eve show.  We both lost our luggage and weren’t reunited with our costumes until just hours before the performance.  We literally flew back home right after the show.
