"I Don't Feel Like Dancin'" is a song by American pop band Scissor Sisters. It was released in August 2006 as the first single from their second album, Ta-Dah (2006). The song was written by Jason Sellards, Scott Hoffman and Elton John, the last of whom provides piano for the song, and was the band's first top-10 single in many countries, peaking at number one in nine of them.
The video, a cinematographic melange, is staged as an animated bill poster for the band, located outside Phoenix Cinema in North London. As a young boy (Chester McKee, a contestant on I'd Do Anything) gazes into the poster, the camera zooms in and the poster fills the frame, suddenly animating into complex motion and dramatic scenes, before pulling out and the image returning to a still bill poster at the end.
The video was created using a combination of digital compositing techniques including stop/start technology and background/foreground illusions and was directed by Andy Soup of Independent Films, with producer Verity White and director of photography Alex Barber. Post production was by flame artist Ben Robards at Absolute Post, and editor Amanda James at Final.[2]
