‘DANCE YOUR STYLE’ World Finals 2022 and 2023

Thank you Team Red Bull for inviting me to conceptualize and direct all Show-visuals for the World Finals of DANCE YOUR STYLE 2023 in Frankfurt after the fabulous fun we had together in Johannesburg in 2022. It was a pleasure and honour to have been directing these visuals and craft the experience of the show together with an amazing South African team of illustrators and animators for both 2022 & 2023.

I love giant screens and the energy in a room and when this gets taken to the next level beyond by the AWE-inspiring dancers that make it to these finals… just WOW. I am immensly grateful to be able to be involved, to conceptualize the flow for the mood that is created together with light and visuals, to bring the screens to life and hold the performances and make the dance stand out and bring the show to life. Thank you team Red Bull SA and the amazing poetry and dance intro in Jozi, thank you team Flying Steps for the great dance intro in Frankfurt and thank you endlessly to the South African artists teaming up with me to bring the ideas to life.
