This is a video for The Second Shift by Virginia Wing, it was directed by Oscar Foster-Kane.
The video seeks to represent the roles of both the surveyor and the surveyed that exist within female identities; An observance of others versus a continual self-scrutiny on behalf of the observer. It’s not possible to dance like nobody’s watching, because someone always is.
The reality of this female conundrum is reflected in Alice’s movements; at once tentative, expressive, inhibited and self-assured. They remind us that, even whilst under society’s gaze, you can still dance.
