Earthen Musicals Come to Gor
I confess. I enjoy filming the art of dance, but take so long to edit the pictures that you never see them.
Today I was pleased to attend a dance exhibition at Vigo - entitled "Earthen Musicals Come to Gor". I was intrigued the format, and having watched the many hours my own dancer spent shopping, scoring, and writing, I knew we would all be in for an amazing event. Many of the finest dancers tried their hand at this format.
So after buying a new hard drive and taking 685 pictures I decided I would not do what I usually do- edit the footage for a 'week' that turns into a month. I can spend 2 hours photoshopping one sketch with my worn charcoals. Since the Tax Ubar is calling I decided to offer one unedited picture of each dancer, and do more edits as time allows over the next week or "two".
To honor the staff, venue, and sponsors, I of course show a picture of two of them. Here is how it was at Vigo, as Earth musicals found their way to Gor.
Hosting Venue: City of Vigo
Admin: Brody
MC: Kyser Mynx
DJ: Dominique Rayna
Builder / Coordinator: Regent Caleb Stoanes’ slave: Wild
Sponsors: Fairey Angel Creations, and of course Sir Mike McDonnell.
The choreography for this number is by Kyser's Taema.
Rosa was called away by the Priest Kings before I could make as many sketches of her as I wished. Perhaps I will find her for a makeup session.
~ Mine ~ I am sure you can see why.
The world of 'Gor' is based on the Fiction of John Norman.
