Special Update From Anne

Update #3 · Feb 10, 2011 · 17 comments

To all our backers, recent and otherwise --

We remain thrilled by your support and are busily planning our production. Our lead dancer, Anne Marsen, is in India for the next month and a half traveling and studying dance. I recently had the chance to speak with her on the phone, and she was astonished by how much love you've all shown to our project.

Because of our success, we're going to support a month-long dance intensive Anne's begun attending in Mumbai. She's just made a video 'hello' to you all from the back of a moped (sound is rough!) and at 2:20, you can see her dancing at the new studio. Enjoy!

      Anne, you're a great dancer, and what you did in the "Let It Out" video was much more than just "dance"; it was art, great art. The way you used your surroundings, all the little things you did. NYC itself was your dance partner (and what a partner). It was thrilling, pure joy. Keep up the good work.

      Great idea! I love Girl Talk, and I love the concept. "She’s playing with her body movement the way a rapper might play with words.”

      First off,

      I gotta say the beginning of Let it Out and That's Right are my favorite parts of All Day. Fucking brilliant, man. Great fucking video. Traveling the globe, I love it. Let me know if you wanna see New Orleans.

      Anne.............yowza ++ big hearts! I'm a kickstarter fan who stumbled across your project based on the featured "Dancing in the Streets" title === i got a personal ferocious adoration for moving like our kid-selves in public and the way you Bring It made my day ----> for real. upon viewing the trailer, i ditched my 'research' pre-business meeting and just danced, danced, danced with you -- and thus the meeting was awesome. If you want to come bailar en las calles in STL in May, the People's Joy Parade beckons,,, collaboration and adoration await. Keep moving like you do! So much beautiful freedom in your being.

      C'mon now, Anne. You are an amazing dancer. You think people gave money to the project because of Jacob's voiceover skills? Keep it up. I believe what one day you will be a dance encyclopedia on legs, with a little knowledge of every type of dance on Earth. Keep it up!
