I founded my dance video production company when I realized that all of my college dance footage was fuzzy, far away and completely unusable. There was clearly a need for better quality dance video, and since I had broadcast experience in addition to dance training — it felt like the perfect passion project.
Now, Nel Shelby Productions has grown from a one-woman show to a thriving operation with an excellent team of creative videographers, editors, marketing minds, client relations and project managers. All women (and occasionally, a few good men). We are deeply dedicated to the preservation of dance through documentation of live performances, and we also focus on digital marketing and promotion with fully edited marketing reels, documentaries and dance films.
Each client we take on receives a custom experience tailored to their dance video needs.
We've been a part of the dance world for years and understand exactly what you need for grant applications, auditions, social media, festival applications and more.
Documentation
Book shows, impress producers, attract presenters, land commissions, and preserve dances with stellar video documentation of your next performance.
Marketing Video
Sell tickets, excite audiences, grow your reach, and propel your company by using stand-out promotional videos on social media, your website and more.
Fundraising Video
Impress donors, entice board members, get grants, and convince funders with fundraising videos that pull at their heartstrings and tug at their wallets.
Creative Films
Make art, enter festivals, host screenings, and maybe even score an Emmy nomination with documentaries and dance films that educate, inspire and tell your story with heart.
I was so impressed and inspired working with Nel and her team. They were professional, open, and engaging. In short, they brought my vision to life. Stars of American Ballet can now be seen as game-changer. We are forever grateful!
