VIDEO: “Big Lake” with choreographer Scott Heron

“Big Lake” – a film by Tomas Little with dance by Scott Heron and music by Corey Dargel. Filmed in New Orleans before Hurricane Katrina. Scored in New York City after Hurricane Katrina.  Corey’s ticket to New Orleans was cancelled. “Nothing good will come out of flying to New Orleans today,” the airline said.

The song lyrics are “useful phrases” taken from various tourist guides, for foreigners visiting the United States as well as English-speaking Americans visiting foreign countries. It seems to fit, however abstrusely, with the film’s unintentional post-Katrina context.
