@songbird377 It looks the person dancing the revealed Odette is stood on some sort of platform above Von Rothbart's head if you look really closely. The other thing is Odile just vanishes, she's stood behind Von Rothbart one minute then he turns round and she's gone.
Wow...words have escaped me. This is really the first time I have seen 'Swan Lake" and liked it! Thank you for the post and for making it worth seeing again!
@bjnboy its called spotting. they focus on one object and then snap their head back around as they spin.....its easier to show someone than to explain with words lol....its not that hard though once you learn how to do it.

i know that Odette is his true love, but other (than the Swan Quatre) the part with the black swan is my fav, and the one i enjoy watching the most :)
So amazing! Just breathless, Thanks for uploading.

so while odette is there... whos playing odile? how is that done?

@singinforfun47 Gillian Murphy plays both then another dancer plays Odette being shown to Seigfried.
A more interesting question is: where the hell does Gillian Murphy go after Odette is revealed?

@ParanoidAndroidDA My guess is when that part when Odette is revealed, they play some kind of video or hologram of her, filmed before.

Yeah, I think that was a hologram of Gillian Murphy dancing as Odette. That was cool! ...

Odile: Nah uh!

There is a time lag between the image and music.
This might be a problem in the edit.

How do ballet dancers deal with the dizziness when they do so many fouettes and pirouettes?
I think most people would ahve fallen over or vomited after doing so many turns.
