A 5 camera, 90 minute live performance dance/film with the Merce Cunningham Dance Company.
Ocean was staged in the bottom of a rock quarry in St. Cloud Minnesota, and performed in the round,
with the addition of a 150 member orchestra using quadrophonic sound.
I had the amazing opportunity to be hired as Director of Photography for this film- which celebrated 10 years
of filmmaking with Charles Atlas. We had 5 cameras and a dolly to cover this ambitious performance
which took place in the round, with a live audience. It was a lot of hard work, but we had a great crew.
After watching this film projected there is no doubt the reel stars are the editors.. Bravo.
