Coming off a big ol’ social media hiatus to bring you this very fun music video from the mind of @itsalanmichael! He continues to impress me with what he comes up with. He also always manages to give very detailed direction while still allowing me a ton of creative freedom. It’s a wonderful combination. Had a blast creating this with a bunch of very talented folks, so we hope you enjoy “VANGUARD”.

The Harkness Dance Center season opened at The 92nd Street Y, New York with The Essence of Us, a celebration of Cuban dance, culture and the connections that bring artists together across borders. At the heart of the evening was Nel Shelby’s film collaboration with choreographer Pedro Ruiz and Malpaso Dance Company, alongside a live performance by Ballet Hispánico New York. Here, Nel, Pedro and 92NY Harkness Dance Center Artistic Director Alison Manning reflect on the meaning behind The Essence of Us, as we share a glimpse of the artistry, energy and joy that made Opening Night so special.

Last weekend, “The Essence of Us” had its world premiere at 92NY. Seeing the film finally meet an audience was incredibly special. 🥰 This project began because @malpasodance could not travel to New York for the planned premiere of @pedroruizjr23’s new work. So we went to them. What came out of that experience is a film about artists, collaboration, resilience, and the ways dance can connect us even when borders make that connection difficult.  That was always the heart of the film for us. I’m so grateful to @92ndstreety for believing in this project and finding a way forward when the original plan became impossible. To Pedro and the dancers of Malpaso for welcoming us into their process. To @ashlibickford, @cdugganphoto, our Cuban collaborators, and everyone who helped bring this film to life. And to everyone who came to the premiere, joined our Q&A, watched during the 72-hour streaming window, shared the film, or supported us along the way: thank you. It was an honor to tell this story!!! ❤️

There’s so much of documentary filmmaking that you never see. The conversations before the camera rolls. The questions you ask after an interview. The translating. The problem-solving. The decisions you make when something doesn’t go according to plan. And sometimes, the hardest part is simply finding a way forward. We made “The Essence of Us” in an incredibly short amount of time, in another country, in another language. @ashlibickford, our Director of Photography and Editor, and I were making a Spanish-language film as English-only speakers, which meant a lot of listening, translating, asking questions, and most importantly, trusting the people around us. There’s so that went into this film that will never make it onto the screen. Tomorrow, a sold out theater finally get to see the parts that did. 💻 STREAM: “The Essence of Us: A Cuban Story” featuring @pedroruizjr23 and @malpasodance at @92ndstreety for $20 starting September 20.

Some projects arrive at exactly the right moment. 🙏⁠ ⁠ For years, I’ve hoped to be part of work that goes beyond documenting the final performance — projects that allow me to witness the creative process, the collaboration, and the artists BEHIND the art.⁠ ⁠ "The Essence of Us: A Cuban Story" was one of those projects.⁠ ⁠ Thanks to @92ndstreety for making this possible, @nelshelbyfilms for bringing the vision to life, and @malpasodance and @pedroruizjr23 for welcoming us into their creative process in Havana.⁠ ⁠ I’m incredibly grateful to have been part of this story... traveling to Cuba, photographing the making of the film, and witnessing these incredible artists create together.⁠ ⁠ It feels like a reminder that the work you’re drawn to has a way of finding you. I’ve spent my career photographing dance and the people who bring it to life, and this felt like a beautiful next step. ⁠ ⁠ I hope it’s the beginning of more projects that celebrate artists, creativity, and connection in this way.⁠ ⁠ Watch "The Essence of Us" at 92NY on Saturday, September 19 at 7pm or stream digitally on September 20 starting at 12pm ET. ⁠ ⁠ Learn more at the link in bio. 🔗⁠ ⁠ #MalpasoDance #CubanDance #DanceFilm #DanceDocumentary #WorldPremiere
