Corruption alert: This article contains spoilers about “Chuck’s life“Now he plays in theaters across neon.
Dancing designer Mandy Moore is one of the most expert in Hollywood dance, as they develop Oscar Oscars, and Emiz, “so you think you can dance”, a tour of Taylor Swift’s ages and countless other prominent projects. However, some of its happiest moments are to teach actors and other people whose basic experience does not convey how to dance. This is the case in the movie “Life of Chuck”, movie on Dancing led Tom Hedelston.
“I really like to teach people where dance is not their first thing,” said Moore. “I love this idea of teaching them to love dance first. I have started doing this on” La La Land “, where there is a copy of this as a dance designer. You can only go and teach steps and say,” These are the steps. This is how you go. 5, 6, 7, no, no, yes, yes, yes, yes. “But I found in this process, which is the way I used to work as a younger dance designer, you do not leave any space for magic.
Moore first heard about the project when director Mike Flangan and producer Trevor Messi continued with her about the design of Stephen King’s adaptation based on his novel “The Life of Chuck”.
“Once I heard it’s the story of Stephen King, you were like,” wait, what is this? “Mike Flangan, I love his work, but where does the dance live in any of this?” She says. “Once I read the text program, I had taken before all of this: the characters, the story and I love the stories that involve dancing in an indiscriminate way, necessarily, or not everyone is limited to spreading and dancing because it is a large part of that somewhere. It was fun.”
In the film, Chuck – who appears in the various ages Tom Heidston, Jacob Trumpy, Benjamin Bajak and Cody Flaangan – is attracted to the world of dance by watching classic musical plays as a boy, and ends up as a basic creative outlet for him. The main scene in the movie is an epic dance between Hiddlesson and Annalize Basso, which is supposed to be a moment of pure joy and the release of Chuck. Moore was eager to develop this dance – despite a big obstacle that most dance designers did not face.
“The operation is if it is a fi and is accused at the same time,” she says. “At first, I knew that Tom would never be with me. He was in London, and I knew a large part of this is to make sure he had a support system there. I know he is a person who loves preparatory. I know he is a great engine, but he needed to be able to partner with Annalize through this very complex dance. This is not something he can prepare alone.”
Stephanie Powell, Moore’s colleague in London, will work with Heidston, while Moore is developing different elements of dance to put them together.
“I would like to start making phrases for movement,” she says. “This can be the phrase cha-cha. This may be a synchic phrase. This can be a swing phrase. This can be MGM-Jin Kelly phrase. This can be the phrase “I just issue freedom.” I would like to create all these different sections of things, register them and send them to Tom and Steve. Steve was learning them, Tom learned and trained them, then they made the video and sent it again. The same was happening with Analiz in Los Angeles. “
It was a secret weapon to completely dance was the invitation of the drama player Taylor Gordon, who plays a full role in the movie that creates the rhythm of this imaginary scene, to develop soundtrack.
“In the end, this explosion is of different patterns, movements and rhythms,” said Moore. “But a large part was brought to Taylor to the rehearsal room very quickly. Their brain.

One of the identical fonts Moore was also the echo of Chuck dance movements for adults across small pigs.
“We were able to photograph the scene of Tom and Analis first, so I knew where to go,” she says. “I knew what this thing should be, so I can watch it and dissect it to complete school dance.”
Ultimately, the film’s love for dance reflects Moore’s passion.
“Everyone can dance – I feel it,” she says. “It may be only because I love dancing a lot and love the idea of sharing it with people who thought they could not dance. My favorite thing in the world is when people say,” I cannot dance, you will never get me to dance, “but I say,” Well, yes, you He can Dancing. You walk, wake up, you are doing it. This dances. We are all danced through life. “
