Myself and professional ballerina Zoe Ashe-Browne are in our last week of crowdfunding for a short film we are making. The film combines narrative ballet, an original soundtrack composed by Cloud Castle Lake and the City of Dublin. Our visual love letter to Dublin city, has only TWO days left to reach it’s fundit target.
We’ve gotten so far, with so much support, now we need to get it over the line. I thought maybe some if your readers would have enough interest in the project to help us out.
Save Poolbeg.

The Washington Post goes behind the scenes at the Washington Ballet where six professional dancers demonstrate the most difficult moves in their repertoire.
Animation graduate Gene Kim maintains he started work on this animated arms war between two rival ballerinas a year before Black Swan was released.

Sadly, herself won’t be wearing anything like this for some time.

I have been training in classical ballet since I was three years old and have been a member of the Irish National Youth Ballet Company since I was 12. I am now 17 and have been accepted after a difficult audition process to the Northern Ballet School in Manchester. However, the fees are STG£11,310 and I have to raise this money before the beginning of term (September 2012) or I will not be able to take up my place. If anyone is interested there will be a fund-raising “Evening of Classical Music” at 7pm on Friday [August 31] in Kimmage Manor, Whitehall Road, Dublin 12. Thank you.
Thanks Joe Casey
