I had the pleasure of working with Nikki Takemori on several kpop dance covers this summer.

The process of creating these videos was a fun challenge for me as I wanted to embody an upbeat kpop edit-style/visual, which was something out of my comfort zone, while maintaining the integrity of the dance.

**Film Tip:
There's the wide shot (whole body with lots of headroom and legroom) and the closeup shot (half body) then there's the MEDIUM shot (have whole body framed up w little/no headroom and legroom). That medium shot is KEY in editing when you're transitioning from a wide to closeup. It just makes the transition less sudden and flow better from a wide to closeup
