Hi everyone! Hope you're all doing well.
The month of October brings new things for the NE Celtic Gypsies. We are now entering the realm of movie-making, with an upcoming appearance on the silver screen.
Nichole and myself have been cast to dance in a full-feature production by Indy filmmaker John Hartman, our scenes to be shot throughout the month of October.
We are very excited about this project, and not only does it combine our love for dance with film, but as a period piece, we'll be satisfying our historical thirst as well. All my favorite things. ;0)
I have been recruited as choreographer as well as performer, in charge of the dance aspect of the film. I'm also thrilled about being hired on the costuming department as well, with my knowledge of historical (12th century) costuming...my other love besides dance and filmmaking!
Needless to say, we will be very busy from now through the next few weeks. We may hold off on the workshops until November, because filming schedules are nuts, and we have to be available.
I'll keep you all posted (what I can) on the film's release dates, etc. when it gets closer to that time.
Speaking of busy-ness... Nikki and myself are also involved in various other arts projects outside of the troupe, including co-producing a comedy show with the local arts community here, and the like. As well as our own dance careers on the side. (I also will be working with Wolf Shadow Theatrical Productions as main choreographer, on an upcoming period Renaissance theatrical, that I'm excited about). Lots of fun stuff!
While our faire performance schedules have been slow for us in New England, our careers have taken us into many new rewarding venues, and we're thrilled about it all.
Just thought I'd share (we're very excited about all this, can't ya tell? ;0) and I don't want people thinking we just dropped off the edge of the earth!
