Motor Dance — a swaying street routine.
Motor Dance makes a photo sway through a street dance with forward arm moves and hip shifts. The sample has no motorbike in any frame. It opens on a young woman with wavy blonde hair in a red-and-blue bodysuit with a black web pattern and a spider emblem, red gloves and red boots, standing on a sunny pavement.
The sample
What happens in the Motor Dance sample.
First she stands with her arms loose at her sides. She pushes both arms forward, fists together, and bends her knees. Next she turns slightly and draws one arm across her body. Midway she steps to the side and reaches out with one arm while her hips swing the other way. In the last frames she shifts her weight from hip to hip, arms bent, and ends facing the camera with one hand low.
The bodysuit, gloves, boots and blonde hair stay the same the whole way, and so does the blurred street with buildings and trees behind her. The camera holds a fixed, full-length view. The dance happens on foot, with no vehicle in view. Since the sample begins with the dancer standing and facing forward, a full-body photo taken that way is where to start.
