The House of Dance Trailer

Saturday, April 18, 2009


House of Dance has a slightly modified cover in store for its release next March as a paperback; thank you, Carla Weise and Jill Santopolo.

In this trailer (the last of the three that I've been creating these past few weeks), we go through the streets of Ardmore and up into the Dancesport Academy studio, where it has taken an entire planet's worth of gifted dancers—Scott Lazarov, Jean Paulovich, John Villardo, John Larson, Jim Bunting, Cristina Rodrighes—and one very fine manager (the lovely Tirsa) to teach me a few things about the box step. This is the studio that inspired this novel, which was named one of the best of the year by Kirkus in 2008.

Love the footage (no pun intended :) of the dancers through the glass.

Thank you, B&BM (am I the only one who calls you that) and Q and LN. A professional videocamera holder I am not. But I've had fun making these.

Q — SO glad you like the new cover!!

Oh, I love the new cover. Amazing what a change of color will do to make things pop and look more sophisticated.

You are having too much fun with the videocamera. Nice reflection of the dancers!

I like the new cover too. It's more dynamic and makes me want to read the book all over again!

A new cover, interesting. Is it the one on the side, red and black? Maybe you could do a post about why they changed the cover? I love to learn little insider things like that. :)

Beautiful. Simply and completely.

I'm enjoying these hand-made videos. From where does the music come?
