Andy McCone wants YOU!
Subject: Call to Seattle Filmmakers
Calling All Filmmakers!
Our production team is seeking filmmakers to document our May Day extravaganza, and we would love to have you join us!
Please join us in celebrating whimsy, dance, and cake in the streets of downtown Seattle on May 1, 2008.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The two-hour performance is unabashedly celebratory, evocative of the embarkation of a grand ocean liner of the early 20th century. Ooo La La is a free interactive public performance spectacular! Perfumed by the decorative exoticism of art deco coupled with the surrealist tendencies of the Jazz Age, this May Day confection celebrates sweets, romantic love, and the act of wishing.
LOCATIONS
Occidental Square: the dancers dance and throw a party dressed as bakers. The atmosphere is fun and festive. The bakers give away whole cakes to audience members.
Pioneer Square to Harbor Steps: Led by marching bands of bakers, along with groups of giggling dancing cakes, dancers parade through the city along three different routes from Pioneer Square to the Harbor Steps. At stop lights, dances erupt on sidewalks, inviting pedestrians and cars into the merriment.
Harbor Steps: As described in project description.
