Combo to Jessie J "Technology" Choreography by Mark Travis Rivera

Created a short combo to Jessie J's Technology and called it "Crackberry".
The dancer, Jennifer learned this is 35 minutes, we didn't clean it. It was mostly for fun, plus I loved the message behind the song, which inspired the piece.

I created this before she became a huge star- over the summer.

Choreography: Mark Travis Rivera
Dancer: Jennifer Florentino

Mark is the Artistic Director/Founder of marked dance project, a disabled/non-disabled dance company started in March of 2009. Based in Wayne, NJ.

that was awesome.

@Helium128 thank you.

Great,nice kind of contemporary work :) if I can suggest..I wouldn't point the feet all the time, sometimes it feels better, when they're flexed :)

[writedance]

@TheTrumpetkiller good point-- if Jennifer feels up to it, I'd like to finish this piece just for the hell of it...and I'd add the detail of flex feet-- because of my disability, my feet aren't able to point the way other dancers can-- so I do a lot of flex feet in my choreography. :) Thanks for the feedback.

dont u ppl know what is dancing? ur hating on a professional ballet dancer.. so ridiculous.. when she even goes u can see that this women is working/dancing her whole life..

[writedance]

@freshymeshyy thanks for this comment. I think people didn't read the description-- we did this in under an hour, not cleaned and it was just for fun. Oh by the way, the dancer above, Jennifer is a sophomore at Point Park University studying dance-- one of the most prestigious dance departments in the country-- just saying to all of those who fail to realize she's a good mover. :) Thanks again :)

@guttt002 I am always open to feedback, whether it is negative or positive. But simply writing "Shit" isn't being constructive...if you'd like to elaborate, please do.

@thelifegoesonx I don't know who you are, and I would normally remove such a ignorant comment but I want people to see my reply -- It takes 4 letters and little effort to write what you wrote, what she does up above in the video is art- whether you like it or not, but either way that takes a lot more skill and effort than your mindless, pointless and ignorant comment.

Grow up!

i think she indeed is good at dancing but there are just some songs you shouldn't be dancing to ;)

[thavador]

youtube does not approve of professional dancing performances by hot girls!

[MultiSpacki]

Thats wonderfull modern dance :) and if you look closer on her feet then you'll recognize that they're stretched all the time like her whole body. So stop calling her an unprofessional dancer ... this talent is in her body and tries to come out everytimer there's music!

Dammit!!! Top comments are all long! Fuck this!

@writedance :) I checked your channel, very impressive. I sometimes dance with disabled dancers or cooperate with deaf and hard hearing ones. These are always the best pieces we do.
