Live-Dance-Film Workshop

Participate in the development and filming of a 'Live-Dance-Film': Improvisation and Choreography in Public spaces with Cameras.

I am Not A Village is an artistic response to the aggressive gentrification of Hackney, and country-wide demonization of “immigration" and poverty, following my displacement from the region.

A danced odyssey about a woman falling in & out of Love with London made with local residents, supported by local artists.
IANV is made using live-dance-film, an expanded film process, that merges the roles of dancer, documenter & audience, whilst capturing the experiencial qualities of performance by embedding the camera movement into the choreography.

Working in public space performers dance with go-pro cameras, building from subtle & pedestrian movements to complex choreography, making it hard for audiences to distinguish between dancer, documenter & audience.
