swan

I sat down to seriously consider the swan in my film!! I filmed near Newburgh on Lindores loch and tho it was quite far away got some film of swans taking off. The best one I saw live was in Stirling, from behind over the loch, but in reality a swan takes some time to get airborn and I do not want it to be a big part of the film.
So I have another solution.

The swan will still look like this..(another drawing from my series) but the moment the dancer becomes a swan will be slightly different. There will be a flury of ice and feathers and the shot will pull back so that as the feathers fall you see the swan flying. I am working now on animated and filmed versions of feathers!!
