(Updated) 3º Batizado e Troca de Cordas do Grupo Bantus Capoeira Japão (YouTube)

Update: All videos are now “Public” on YouTube. Sorry, I forgot to turn the “Private” setting off.

Batizado and Troca de Cordas Video

Thanks to the advances in online video sharing and continuous improvements on YouTube we are proud to present, for the first time, the entire batizado video!!!

Shot on tripod with Professor Rafael’s HDD Camcorder, the video is an audience’s point of view of the batizado. Some parts of the batizado are missing from the video.

We will be publishing video from other cameras soon, and will have a professionally produced digest of the batizado from We All Japan shortly.

I can’t wait to see that!

Video 1/4 (Opening Roda, Caçapa’s Graduation, Introduction of Guests, and Start of Kids Batizado)

Video 2/4 (Kids Batizado)

Video 3/4 (Adults Batizado)

Video 4/4 (Troca de Cordas and Closing Roda)

A complete list of all photos taken during the 3º Festival Capoeira do Grupo Bantus Capoeira Japão – Wednesday 13th-Sunday 17th October, 2010 will be published on this blog next!

Stay tuned!
