Paul Becker, renowned choreographer for hit films such as "Disney's Descendants," "Netflix's Julie and the Phantoms," "The Kissing Booth" franchise, "Ralph Breaks the Internet," and the highly anticipated "Prom pact" for Disney, is thrilled to announce his latest project as choreographer for Paramount's "Honor Society." Becker's exceptional talent and dedication to bringing dynamic and visually stunning performances to the screen have made him a go-to choice for some of the most popular films of recent years, and his work on "Honor Society" is no exception.
"This big musical number, titled ‘Glorious’, is something I'm very proud of. The producers gave me a lot of freedom going into this. I prepped it with a skeleton crew representing the cast. I shot an entire previsualization of the musical number before stepping foot in a rehearsal studio with the cast. So, we knew what we were getting ourselves into. Orani, the director captured the choreography shot for shot based on my previz, and she's an excellent job at it," says Becker.
"Most people assume that a choreographer creates dance steps... But they don't realize that there is so much more that goes into it if the choreographer is a storyteller like me. Over the years I've had the pleasure of working with and learning unique storytelling techniques from many great directors like Barry Sonnenfeld, Zack Snyder, Kenny Ortega, Alan Arkush, Kirk Thatcher, Tarsem Singh, and Bill Condon," Paul continues, "it's like I've been in a film school for over 20 years and still learning ways of telling stories, using the camera, physical dialogue, written dialogue, and many other creative things".
