About the film
Cloud Dance is a short ambient film shot and released by Jim Elton in April 2013. The second of two visual portraits (following A Flat Abstraction), Cloud Dance is a collection of cloud and sky footage taken from inside "Wingless Towers" in Plymouth. The film begins and ends with shots from the windows of the apartment building, looking up into the sky. The otherwise-silent film is set to an orchestral score by Tom Menary, also titled "Cloud Dance". The track contains several references to the main theme from Wingless (2011).
Both the film and its original score were released on 19th April, 2013; one day after A Flat Abstraction, and following filming in Dartmoor with Jim, Tom and Rick Stear.
