DVD Reviews of Ballet Class Intermediate Level with Dmitri Roudnev
DVD Review: Good class routine, but just really poor video-recording quality...
Summary: 2 Stars
I reviewed this dvd (and two of Dmitri Roudnev's other ballet class dvds produced by him), and it indeed was a good demonstration of an actual intermediate to advanced ballet class routine, with barre and centre work. However, the recording quality was so poor and amateurish (it seriously looked as if someone was using their out-dated home camcorder complete with awful sound quality to film the class) that I couldn't even enjoy watching it very much, and wasn't motivated to actually do the class (the barre work at least, since I don't have enough space in my living room to do the centre work). For the price (this dvd is more expensive than better-produced workout and dance-conditioning dvds on the market), I expected something slightly higher in production quality. Then again, I was given fair warning from the previously written (and more favorable) Amazon reviews that the recording quality was quite poor and that one should take from the dvd what it means to give, that is, a "real" ballet class experience. I myself like the aesthetic of a slightly more professionally done and arranged recording, and so have deferred to using other dance conditioning dvds for my exercises (even though they are not quite "authentic" dance classes). I ended up returning this dvd, and two of the other Dmitri Roudnev dvds I ordered from Amazon. I just couldn't appreciate or get myself to use it for the content alone, and felt somewhat "cheated" by how cheaply produced it was for the rather expensive price.
