I liked that collection of video ads with dancers that Maria put together.

Here’s YouTube video of trailer of “Cost of Living.”

There are so many commercials that are videodances out there today: Hummer, Gap, Target, and others to name a few. Maria from A Time to Dance recently posted about this trend here: <a href="http://atimetodance.wordpress.com/2007/10/04/dance-in-advertising/" rel="nofollow">http://atimetodance.wordpress.com/2007/10/04/dance-in-advertising/</a> I think that what you are asking though is can videodance for it's own sake be commercial? I believe so, and it's starting to happen, however it hasn't emerged yet as a commercial success. DV8 has been very successful with "The Cost of Living", which has been distributed fairly widely and achieved something of a cult status. Guy Madden did a Dracula film with the Royal Winnipeg Ballet that wasn't hugely successful, but it was widely distributed. My point is this form is already evident in a lot of commercial work, but it hasn't been recognized widely as it's own form. Instead it is used to promote other products or genres (like music videos, musical films, tv commercials, etc.). With education, marketing and advocacy it could become more widely recognized in the commercial realm as it's own unique form. YES, absolutely, and they already are.

Perhaps someone is already doing this--selling their videodances and/or clips? Have a question for you Anna:

Now if I can just learn Wiki!....it's not at all easy. And it is not as if I am not somewhat computer saavy. My Wiki username is Dancepiration, in case there's a way for all the videodance users to be in a group? Like I said, I still need to learn Wiki. Love the hoe down videodance! Thanks, shoshnana BRAVO Anna!
