Rapier Dance Closeup

A fluid camera sequence combining wide view, and close-up, dynamic movement and dramatic stillness. The character performs a sword dance. The camera pans sideways to surround the character and follows the blade of the rapier, as she flourishes her rapier in complicated circular motion, her black long dress twirling, emphasizing elegance and power. At the end she suddenly strikes the sword tip forward in a 45-degree close-up, remaining a still stance.
