Sneak up is about a song and dance known as “sneak up”. It is a traditional dance Caplin saw at their powwow growing up, it intrigued them and always was their favorite. They decided to rotoscope the dance in hopes of conveying a visual story. The dance is meant to convey the movement of a warrior, tracking down his enemies and sneaking up for an attack.
Through song and dance, traditional dancers tell stories with rhythmic movement and chants, body language perpetuating our culture and stories, I,v chosen to animate a recurring traditional song from my powwow, known as sneak up.
