About the event
Welcome to Aerial Visions, an aerial short-film gala where 17 aerialists have carefully curated their own aerial visions and have brought them to life through dance, film & nature.
Each aerialist was asked to create and envision a routine and a short-film of whatever they wanted with no peramiters, no limits, no creative boundaries. They were prompted to pick their own moves, their own songs, their own expression and a landscape to film in.
We have films everywhere from the LA skyline to the peaceful beaches of Carlsbad to the quaint woods in Crestline and many in between!
This event is a formal gala where these films will be shown and their respective creators and artists will be honored.
Within the evening full of screening 17 films, there will also be a bit of live entertainment, dinner, raffle and more!
