Movement and the Single Screen

This 3-day practical and Inspirational workshop investigates movement and performance within the context of single-screen video practice and is led by artist filmmaker Miranda Pennell.

Participants will explore a range of formal ideas through a combination of screenings, discussions and practical research. In particular, attention will be paid to the specificity of video/film language in its relationship to movement composition and performance, and to the nature of cross-art form dialogue. The emphasis of the workshop is on experimentation and on collaboration.

27th, 28th and 29th January 2008
