Four takes with Mariah Bell. Which one is your favorite?
Backstory: In early May 2019, I joined Dani Montalbano, Mick Brezina and Mariah at Lakewood ICE to document their 2018-2019 programs while wearing Plus Five Apparel. It was my first time ever filming with Mariah, and in celebration of her amazing performance at U.S. Nationals last weekend, I’ve decided to share all four clips we took of her 2019 Long Program. The fourth video is the one I ended up posting, but it’s fun to go back and see the ‘warm-up’ process it took to get there.
I think my favorite part about the way I filmed this is that I didn’t ask Mariah to walk me through her steps before she started skating it. I just start filming and eventually gain an understanding of who a skater is through a lens. Videos 1, 3 and 4 really are the first time I’d watched her skate those sections. I think I capture emotion best that way, because it allows me to react to the skaters’ movements in real-time (like a live audience) and not bring in my own assumptions based on something I saw recorded on different day in entirely different circumstances. Good skating looks best from all angles anyways, so it’s more about the way I take an audience, especially a first-time skating audience, through that experience.
Thank you as always for your support! After Dancing On Ice ends I’ll be back to traveling and filming skaters worldwide, and your financial support will be invaluable in helping me afford to continue producing skating videos exactly the way I’d like to!
