Brief.
Work on “A new safe path” started in a hot afternoon in early April with Eleonora’s phone call. She already had many ideas in mind: images of water, choreography, the feeling of being released from anxieties and oppressions. The video concept was developed from that very first phone call, with a dance originating and ending in water, where two female figures fight and dance together while playing with dark black veils, a metaphor of the battle against fears and insecurity.
The dominant colors are the blue and cyan of the first morning hours. We chose to apply slow motion very often, to accompany the track variations in rhythm and intensity. The scouting to find a proper location took several days and, finally, we opted for a rocky cove on Castel Gandolfo Lake.
