This music video is an excerpt from the one-hour plus health and fitness show, "Bellydance Core Conditioning," made exclusively for DVD. It stars internationally known dancers and choreographers, Neena and Veena, who have been featured in films, TV commercials, music videos, sitcoms, and talk shows. They have their own fifty-member dance company that specializes in Arabic and Bollywood dance styles. This video is a sample that concentrates on core muscles and strengthening the entire core body from abs to hips. As the twins put it, "Bellydance Core Conditioning" gives fast results in a fun and sensual way. And all while moving to hot, original Arabic fusion music. Their unique style of workout blends a mix of Yoga, martial arts, and Hip-Hop, all spiced with Indian Bhangra Folk dancing. Award-winning live concert and music video director, Chip Miller, directed and co-edited the program with Bill Black, and final online edit was Scott Sobol. Pioneer female MTV editor, Travis Miller, line produced the ambitious big-budget 10-day production, which features seven major set designs and changes all on a revolving stage custom built at The Burbank Sound Stages. Other producers are Bryan Greenberg and Chip Miller. Shot in 35mm film by cinematographer/DP, Bryan Greenberg, with additional cameras by Cameron Cannon, Mark Shelton, Will Murray, and Eric Anderson. Production Manager was Daniel Rucci and Wardrobe was by Jamie Crowley. The production was for Red Hots Entertainment, Miller's former Burbank production company. He founded Desert C.A.M. Studios in 2009, a successful production and full service post-production company with offices in Burbank and a studio in Palm Desert, CA. Chip Miller first met Neena and Veena when he cast them in one of their early feature roles in his music video for R&B icon Charlie Wilson and The Gap Band, "First Lover." The Belly Twins auditioned and won the role of two belly dancers who dance in the MTV hit video, with a huge Boa Constrictor draped around them. Casting that day was a very interesting experience for Miller, Bryan, Travis, and their casting director. This video is restored from a non-HD 2005 DVD video source.
