Ballet 422 Page #5

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.

- Okay.

- Sterli... Ster.

Oh, she needs to do more

with her back leg.

Ster, we want to have you

one more time in the grand jet.

Okay.

In the grand jet,

the toss thing.

I feel like you're

a little late, just, like...

- I feel like you're behind her.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

I feel like she's already past you,

and you can't get any...

Okay.

- That's better.

- Oh, hey.

- That was better.

- Yeah.

- I just need to travel with you.

- She needs to be...

If you think about her being

almost slightly behind you

- so you can really, like...

- Can I try one more time?

- Yeah!

- That's great.

- That's it.

- Good.

Iris 619 at half, please.

670.

No. Oops. 651 at 50.

Come back to N1 once it's clear.

No, you're fine.

Just give me 370. Right.

And update cue 12.

Cue only.

And stand by, bridge,

to pick up the couple

down right...

or down left with cue ten.

You'll come up to half minus.

And then stand by, stage right,

to switch our dancers here...

or to switch our light walkers.

If, by chance,

sorry, before you start,

that I don't have their marks...

- Hold please, Katie.

- Yup.

If I don't have their marks slightly

right, can that be adjusted?

Like, I'm worried that they're

gonna end up a little...

- Oh, absolutely.

- Okay.

- Yeah.

- That's not hard to fix.

- Easy fix.

- All right.

Cool. All right.

Bridge, stand by

to pick up the couple

with cue ten, half minus,

and stand by, Penny, to switch

the light walkers, please.

All right, so applause,

applause, applause.

Light cue ten, go.

So add some beginning applause.

Bridge, slowly

picking up the couple.

So 16, go.

And they're now moving.

And the whole stage gets

a little brighter

and fuller at that point.

Light cue 14, go.

Another thing I was wondering...

I don't know if this

would be a bother,

but because

it's so high-waisted...

Can, in the pattern of...

Is this just a half circle?

They're side seams.

Okay, so this is...

This is three pieces?

It's one, two, and three?

- Yes.

- Okay.

Can the sides be, like,

shaped a little bit

to give less fullness in the...

- At the top?

- At the top?

And more flare?

Absolutely. Of course.

Yeah, because that way,

we'll lose...

When she twirls,

it won't get so far away

from her body here,

but it will here.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

Yeah,

so it will just be slightly

more angled and slightly shaped.

Right, not just

a straight line from the... right.

Okay.

- And she'll have...

- Does it feel comfortable?

- It feels great.

- Good.

She'll have...

I mean, this really does

feel secure.

Little trunks to match?

- Okay.

- Yeah.

What happened

with the rolling down?

Yeah, with the straight here,
