Ballet 422 Page #3

Synopsis: Ballet 422 is a record of the creative process of a young choreographer Justin Peck, just 26 years old, hired to create a new ballet for the winter season of the New York City Ballet in 2013. The New York City Ballet is considered one of the best companies in the world. Since 1990 he is led by Peter Martins, his Ballet Master in Chief. The documentary describes the intense backstage work that takes place during the process of creating and learning this new ballet: "Paz de la Jolla". It shows Peck working with his fellow dancers (Justin Peck is also a soloist at NYCB!), with musicians, lighting technicians, and costume designers in the composition of a new work, his third creation for the NYCB. It is the first time the New York City Ballet is exposed during the creation of a new a ballet.

Cashmere!

I mean, we're used

to wearing really hot,

uncomfortable costumes,

and this will be nothing

compared to some...

Like, we wear Firebird

monster costumes.

- I love them.

- Yeah.

Yeah, and they're great,

but they're not fun to wear.

- But we still wear them, so...

- Okay.

So if you really like that,

then stick with it.

Five, six. Two, two, three,

four, five, six.

Three, two, three,

four, five, six.

Four, two, three,

four, five, six.

Five, two, three,

four, five, six.

Six, two, three,

four, five, six.

One, two, three, one...

See?

There is a one-two-three.

Well, the one-two-three

was a silent,

but if you want it on that,

it can be on that.

I thought the one...

the silent one-two-three,

we're going to this.

His six that

he's counting is our sixth six.

- Let's just do our sixth six.

- It's four, five, six.

- One, two, three, I think.

- Two or three. Yeah.

- Okay.

- Okay. Cool.

So we'll count the six and go

on the silent one-two-three and go.

Okay. Last six.

Okay.

Good.

And can you each

just support his back?

If we both did

maybe, like, a fourth.

We can just try that.

And go!

- Oh, God.

- I know. I'm heavy.

No, it's just because

he ends up going sideways

- and we're trying to do it...

- Oh, do you want me to go to you?

- Yeah, you need to...

- Go to Sterling.

- That's fine. I didn't know.

- Okay.

You can come a little more to me.

- I'm scared now.

- Just don't be flat.

- Can you split the difference?

- Split the difference. Okay.

- Perfect.

- Got you.

- That's great.

- Wow, ladies!

Let's try that.

Okay, let's do...

I think we should

run the finale step,

since that's brand-new.

What do we think?

Let's go over it.

Let's hear it once.

Let's hear it once.

And...

One, two, three, four, five, six.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four,

five, six. One, two.

Stop.

Yes! Yes!

Sterling... She did it.

She's got it.

Sorry.

It needs to be...

It's not, like, crispy enough.

- Crispier?

- Crispier, okay? Same thing.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight.

One, two, three, four, five...

Okay.

Three and...

That's it!

Good.

Good!

Good!

That was very, very, very good.

That was very good.

That's what I'm looking for.

That's what I'm looking for.

It's like the balance

of these is off.

Mm-hmm.

It's not just a matter

of pulling that part, is it?

No.

Yeah.

I know what you mean, though.

Because this

is all just falling forward.

And we want it to sit, like...

- Like that.

- More like that.

That's better.

So if you take the waistband off

and remove some length here,

would that, like,

put a deeper curve?
