| Description: | Available in HD and 4x3 Digi Beta. CHINESE NEW YEAR, DRAGON DANCE, KOWLOON, HONGKONG. Note: This seems to be some sort of demonstration (NOT in a parade setting). Two white, fluffy dragon heads (with people puppeteering them) seem to pose for pictures, a few people behind them; these look sort of cuddly like Muppets. A couple of shots, one low angle, of the dragon heads in motion, puppeteers visible. MS dragon costume lying uninhabited on the floor. Another shot of both dragon heads on ground. Soft focus shot of someone's hand painting the dragon's eye. Various shots of the two dragons dancing about, lots of movement, two people operating each one. One dragon puppeteer stands/ leans atop a pole; another small pole holds up the tail of the dragon while the man operates the front portion; buildings are in the background. Still on this pole, dragon spews confetti and a banner out of its mouth. Various other shots of white & gold (with colorful trimming) dragon being operated by very athletic, acrobatic people; buildings and/or photographers in background. In one shot the dragon shakes its tail (shake your booty). CU dragon sitting calmly, looking and "talking" to cam. Motionless dragon propped up outside building, banner hanging from its mouth. | |
