ONCE MORE - American Ballet Theatre
American Ballet Theatre’s principal ballerina, Stella Abrera, said farewell to the company in 2020 during the global pandemic, and as such was unable to dance her farewell before a live audience as is usually the tradition. Choreographer, and collaborator, Gemma Bond approached me about directing a short film capturing this emotional moment for ABT’s digital finalé. Restricted to an ultra minimum crew due to Covid safety, we created a creamy dreamy short that put reflection, remembrance, and romance on display for all to see.
