2012 GrandSlam Tokyo

Tokyo GS STD R4: FERRUGGIA - KOEHLER, GER 13/03/2012

Benedetto FERRUGGIA - Claudia KOEHLER, GER © Abe The WDSF Communications team is far from done producing coverage on the two memorable competitions in last Sunday's Tokyo GrandSlam. Five hours of footage still need to be converted from NTSC to PAL standard before the FINAL REEL can be tackled by our editor.

Meanwhile, we present 20 semi-final highlights. Ten today and ten tomorrow!

What's Left? 11/03/2012

2012 WDSF GrandSlam Tokyo | STD © Abe Nothing more for today! We are aware that the audio of the live stream recordings is once again of a poor (even very poor) quality. During the live webcast we didn't have any audio glitches whatsoever. Strange - we'll have to ask Mr YouTube!

We are taking dubs of the organisers' master tapes and our own footage home with us. That way we can produce HD final reels on semi-final and final of both GrandSlam competitions. Given the quality of today's dancing, this should certainly be something to look forward to.

The WDSF Communications team cannot yet commit to a specific date for these FINAL REELS to be ready, as the source material needs to be converted from NTSC to PAL. And that needs to happen before post-production can start. We'll keep you advised!

For next weekend we should have another gem in store for DanceSport enthusiasts everywhere: the WDSF Communications team flies to Moscow on Friday 16 March, when another blog will go up on the 2012 European Youth Ten Dance (17 March) and the WDSF PD World Standard (18 March).

Signing off! The flight is in seven hours ...
