Anaheim Ballet Launches Video Podcast Series

Thanks to Gray at Fame or Famine for pointing to new video series posted by the Anaheim Ballet.

The Anaheim Ballet has embraced social networking, video sharing sites and iTunes. I think that this is a great development and I'm delighted to see it. I also like their sense of humor - they don't take themselves too seriously and their having fun. In the second video below, you'll notice about half way through that the camera switches to a dancer's view of a pirouette.

Mocking the notion that ballet is just for the elite, the Anaheim Ballet recently launched a series of short entertaining video podcasts that will have wide appeal.

Watch "Anaheim Ballet Dancer Profile: Samantha Bell"

Watch "Ballet: Spin Cycle"

You can access all of the Anaheim Ballet videos on YouTube. You can also visit the Anaheim Ballet MySpace.

Plus, you can visit their podcast page on iTunes to subscribe to their channel and download the clips to your iPod. (iTunes software required.)
