VANESSA WALTERS / FIGHT OR FLIGHT

The first in a series of artist portraits features New York City based dancer / choreographer Vanessa Walters.

Taken outside the context of the studio or the stage, dancing takes a breath of fresh air in this new environment.

These people are not in it for the red carpet and fancy schmantzy parties. They probably don’t know Graydon Carter, or even what he looks like. They just love film more than life itself. And it shows. We created an integrated campaign that communicated the idea that film was literally flowing in their veins. They don’t just love film, they are film. Sold out shows. The biggest attendance to date. Here’s to film.
