Girl Walk // All Day is a 70-minute testament to the power of remix culture and the joy of dancing like a crazy person in public. The dance film is set the entire Girl Talk album, All Day, which is free to download and samples tracks by dozens of artists. The project began as a collaboration between filmmaker Jacob Krupnick and dancer Anne Marsen and grew to include a whole cast of characters. They raised money via Kickstarter, a platform for crowd-funding creative work, and exceeded their goal of $4,800 to raise a whopping $24,817 from 577 backers. Now, they are releasing the film in chapters for free online. This is the trailer:
