Description
1 videocassette (U-matic, NTSC) (28 min.) : sd., col.; 3/4 in.
Summary
The guests, who gained fame as performers of street dancing, define ivarious forms, such as popping, locking, and breaking, and describe some basic movements. They also discuss the special characteristics of street dancing: its element of competition and fierce pride in originality, its dependence on the dancers' own inventiveness, its emphasis on the individual's passion or spirit, and its role as a voice of the community. The dancers also comment upon their interaction with professional dancers such as ballet dancer Ann Marie de Angelo, who has incorporated street dancing into her works. Clemente is seen performing in an excerpt from de Angelo's Paradise; other dance excerpts show clips from films and music videos, and movement demonstrations by the three guests.
