otteroflore replied to your video: Widow’s Ballet Emote
on one hand im in love bc i went to a ballet literally sunday but on the other im disappointed shes not, you know, en pointe properly? ;3; shes dancing tiptoe but not in a ballet stance.
I’m also.... kind of going to nitpick, but....
As an ex-ballet dancer, she’s not hitting her lines properly. Her third position (which should probably be fifth, really), isn’t tight enough. Her hands and arms don’t... extend properly? Like there should be more extension, more weight in her fingers and more flow as she does that arabesque. Dancer lines need to really flow and she’s a little wooden.
You could argue this is just because she lacks a lot of emotion and passion in her moves (except for the sorrow when her eyes are closed at the end), but it’s one thing that bothers me when they get actors to pretend to be ballet dancers in movies. Their hands are never dynamic enough. Ballet dancer arms and legs and body should move as if in a wave, effortlessly, beautifully, flowingly? Here’s a youtube video of a dancer doing BEAUTIFUL flow and lines.
Widow’s moves lack flow here. It bothers me :|
.....having said that, I’m purchasing it immediately when i get home and using it constantly anyway, and I’m glad it exists XD
