Vote for DFA’s Panel
DFA at SXSW in 2013
Presented by Dance Films Association, this solo presentation will discuss storytelling approaches to making films with and about dance-makers and performance artists. The film director and interdisciplinary artist Alla Kovgan will focus on such topics as translating choreographic ideas into cinema, adapting choreography for the camera, negotiating formal languages of film and dance, challenges of dance film collaborations as well as the use of technology.
Dance film at SXSW
Dance film continuously graces the annual South by Southwest Film Festival in Austin, Texas. Nine dance films (see them here) screened at SXSW in 2012 including a SXEncore of NY Export: Opus Jazz, brought back by popular demand. Other appearances include Dance on Camera Festival alum Keep Dancing, directed by DFA’s newest board member Greg Vander Veer screened in 2010 followed by DFA collaborator Celia Rowlson-Hall’s Prom Night in 2011.
