BUT FIRST… was crafted in a CoLaboratory workshop run by the San Francisco Dance Film Festival and the National Center for Choreography at Akron University. Erin was chosen for their grant funded residency from a national search and paired up with NYC-based choreographer Mike Esperanza to conceive and execute a screen-dance short film over the period of a few days.
Coffee literally changes the way I see, think, and interact with other people. BUT FIRST… is my way of exploring this through two of my favorite mediums, film and dance.

Stan is a shy and hopeless romantic who pines after his best friend Cindy. Too scared to risk sharing his true feelings, he instead imagines a world where his action movie heroics woo her time and again. However, when Cindy is offered a job overseas, Stan must man up and mirror the hero of his film fantasies in order to win her heart. During their last celebratory dinner, his failed romantic gestures ricochet from reality into fantasy and back again, right up to the heart-pounding and heart-warming climax that ticks down to the wire.
