————————————————-
Christina Aguilera’s song Dirrty for Pride’s 🏳️‍🌈important & special film )
NO CHARGE to dancers😍
“So…because we’re sticking to the Dirrty song we won’t need extra choreography…(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Rg3sAb8Id8)
HOWEVER, it’d be amazing to have you and your dancers in your wonderful colourful costumes dancing with us in the final number?
We would then also film some freestyle at the end and incorporate you in that section as well.
I love the joy you and your dancers bring and I’d really like that to be a part of the video!”
The final result would be similar to our previous pride videos (this was our Kylie one from 2019: https://youtu.be/fTnAgK8kXyg
Let me know your thoughts! :),
Andrea Walker x ( the choreographer)
Isn’t that AMAZING 👆 , dear MSDC?!!!
