[LBC-news] LBC video project: Ragtime Ricochet

[Andrew Findlay]

The London Barndance video project for March is a contra. Lynne Render
has written a new lockdown dance for us called Ragtime Ricochet: it
works for one or two people, and can be scaled up to a full Beckett set
when real dancing is allowed again.

With music from English Contra Dance Band this should be a really fun
project! Lynne and Peter have recorded a walkthrough and demo, and there
is also an MP3 file with the music and call. You will find links to all
of them on the event page:

Have a go, and please send us a video. Upload it to this Google album
(you need a Google account):

If you cannot use that, then send us the file by some other method (email
probably won't work as videos are too big).  We will make a composite
video with short clips from everyone and we will show it during the next
virtual dance on 13th March.

Please send your video as soon as possible as it takes quite a while to
do the editing. Be inventive! Will this be the first to include dancers
in Minecraft?

Keep an eye on the event page as it will be updated with more
information and links to tunes etc in due course.

Here's a link to our main video page, where you will find all the
earlier projects and many of the dances from the past year:

We look forward to seeing what you make of Ragtime Ricochet!
