In addition to viewing and discussing a plethora of international dance film shorts and getting an overview of the genre, the Intensive takes participants through a variety of editing exercises, the preliminaries of getting coverage, creating & shooting dynamic choreography for camera - what works and what doesn’t, incorporating elements including time, distance, lighting, jump cuts, and much more. The Intensive examines narrative vs. conceptual, linear vs. non linear, current & past popular styles of screen dance, “commercial” vs “art”, where to go/existing options with your films in terms of festivals, funding, distribution etc. and much more.
