The photos from last weekend’s 2014 American Star Ball are now uploading to the website! We have tried to quickly sort through all the images by the number worn by gentlemen during competitive heats. To see the photos, visit the direct link to the photos here:
For this post, I wanted to show some of the behind the scenes photos that I made over the weekend. Of course my main focus was on all the dancing on the floor. There were many more entries at the competition this year, so I did not have that much time to get extras, but here are a few!
The competition ran early all weekend. With the work of our deck captain, the dancers were organized and ready to dance for all their heats keeping things almost up to 20 minute ahead of schedule!
With all the extra time, there was also time to celebrate a couple of birthdays!
The emcees also worked all weekend announcing all the dances, the award winners, and sometimes, singing along with all the great music!
Dancesport competitions always have so much to take in. This is just a snippet of all the activity going on in and around the event. It is important to try to capture more than just the dancing to help tell the story of the weekend. There is so much that goes on before the dancers hit the floor. What you see out there is the final presentation, but I wanted to highlight some of the work that is being done throughout to make sure the dancers remain the focus and grab all the attention of those coming through the doors. The organizers were successful in doing just that!
