I actually ran the footage backward; in the original source she's stepping backward and looking sort of reserved. Running it backwards so that she steps forward while staring intently at Xena made it so sexy. I really wanted to focus on Lao Ma's desire for Xena and I think that section succeeded at that.
OMG I didn't even notice you'd done that and it's such a neat trick that works really beautifully in the vid!
