Motion State Dance Film Series- Season 7

Going into its Seventh Season, the Motion State Dance Film Series is the only year-long, traveling short dance film festival in New England devoted to showcasing the diversity of contemporary creative voices exploring the medium of choreography for the camera. By taking the festival “on the road” and into non-traditional film venues, such as art galleries, music halls, performing arts theaters, and university classrooms, the Motion State Dance Film Series seeks to expose the films and filmmakers to new audiences. Every screening is followed by a public Q & A with the curators.

Experimental Series - Salt Lake City Call for Entires

Experimental Series - Salt Lake City (EXPS/SLC) is an experimental video/film series hosted by the Union Theatre at the University of Utah. EXPS/SLC is hosted through the School of Dance at the University of Utah. We encourage especially women, queer, non-binary, and disabled creators whose work is rooted in experimental approaches addressing movement, dance, choreography, and/or the body to apply. Please apply if your film incorporates movement or the body, but would not typically be considered "dance on camera".
