Client Challenge
The production team needed a concise, high-impact trailer to promote the performance to festivals and theaters. The challenge was to distill a longer, complex live performance into a clear and engaging 3-minute piece that communicates the essence and artistic identity of the work.
Solution Delivered
I structured the edit to highlight key visual and emotional moments, balancing narrative clarity with artistic rhythm. Working closely with the director and art director, I refined pacing and shot selection to ensure the trailer reflects the performance’s identity while remaining accessible and compelling for presenters.
