If you've ever seen salsa dancing done right, you've been blown away by the skill of the dancers. I had the great pleasure of shooting a promotional video for the Calle Luna Dance Studio salsa dance team. Shot on RED One MX and supported by the crew: AC Jake Czepiel, Erik Lu, Burke Pushman, Marvin Burwell, Steve Laramie, and Davita Pray, we pulled an all night shoot with a load-in time of 8:30pm. All in all, it was a short shoot day (less than four hours of shooting) with load out at 3am but the specific hours themselves were taxing.
We kicked up about 9,000 watts of tungsten light so we were able to shoot at a very high shutter speed to capture how electric their movement was. The salsa team blasted out an action packed two-minute routine and we shot it with jib, dolly and sticks. For good measure, we got some slow motion at 2K (120 fps)
