    We need a feature length documentary. I’m addicted to this video, multiple times a day for two months now. What have you done CDK?!?

      I watch it every day and try to watch one dancer throughout the routine and every time I think I've watched each one, I see someone new. It's a blast.

      Really changes the dynamics. The first time I saw this creation I thought about what it must have sounded like and it they should have added some of that in but just a matter opf opinion.

  • @davidorlich
    @davidorlich 2 місяці тому +20

    What makes the video so great for me, compared to earlier CDK productions, is the individuality of the dancers. You see their faces unobstructed, and their unique costumes. It makes them much more relatable compared to the machine like characters of earlier productions. Absolutely huge kudos to you!

    As someone that has had to choreograph dance scenes. I am in awe every time I see this video performance. From the bottom of my heart, I know & can appreciate the amount of work, time, effort each one of those dancers has had to rehearse, connect, timing & perform to pull that all off, and that's just the dance aspect, let alone the costume, lighting, props & on top of that filming . It is a work of art, every single person involved should be so proud of the end result.

  • @tinageiger6560

Most obvious the talent of the dancers but then you have the amazing choreography, the costumes (so love the choices of style and array of rich colors etc) to the lighting and direction of the filming and then the EDITING...my God the editing of this video is just spectacular. Appreciate seeing the how it was done video. SO much talent in this 4min. video.

    I replayed the other version without the ends cut off - so many times looking for anyone letting down the team. Couldn't find anything. But a couple of the dancers just seem to be more mesmerising and hard to take your eyes away from. EG the guy that begins it. Something about his style keeps drawing me in
