About Ballerina Project

Ballerina Project is a YouTube channel created by photographer Dane Shitagi, with about 3,900 subscribers and roughly 540,000 total views across 74 videos. The channel posts dance films in which professional ballet dancers perform in outdoor landscapes and city streets, often accompanied by a short interview or a note about the location. Based on the channel's titles and descriptions, the audience is likely arts-minded adults interested in ballet, photography and fine art prints. Individual videos have typically drawn around 1,100 views, and no new uploads have appeared in the past year.

According to the channel's own description, the project is a series of photographs built up over 25 years, and the same work is sold as limited edition prints. The channel promotes these prints rather than third-party products, and no sponsorship disclosures were found in the last 50 videos. Sponsored integrations would cost about $150 to $250 per video, which works out to a CPM of about $20 to $35 per 1,000 views. That is higher than typical paid social CPMs of $10 to $30, so the channel suits brands seeking a specific artistic audience rather than broad reach.

This creator suits fine art, dance apparel and travel brands that value atmospheric, high-craft content. Brands should weigh the inactive upload schedule and low view counts before booking.
