Workshop Interactive Dance Film - Cinedans 2006

THE WORKSHOP
Together with the Cinedans Festival, Mediamatic organizes a workshop  
on interactive dance film. In this workshop, 16 international dance  
filmers, editors and choreographers make interactive online dance  
films or dance film installations, using their own footage.

Interactive film offers interesting new forms of contact between the  
film and its viewer, but also requires other ways of shooting and  
editing the material. The participants research the relations between  
the paths of the camera, the movements of filmed bodies, the  
dramaturgy of the viewer and its movements on the screen or through  
space (in case of an installation), that together make up the form of  
the interactive dance film.

TRAJECTORY
The workshop is an intense 5-day process. Starting off with a close  
study of several intriguing interactive dance film projects on the  
first day, the participants create the content, form and interactive  
experience of their project, discuss it with experienced trainers and  
participants, and build a working prototype assisted by technical  
assistants.

Participants can bring up to 40 minutes of material, on dvd, or on  
FireWire harddisk, preferrably in Quicktime movie format.  
Participants use an easy-to-learn tool, that allows the projects to  
be published online, or on dvd-rom. All participants are assisted  
personally in realising their workshop projects. Specific technical  
knowledge of new media is not required.

HOW MUCH AND MORE INFO
The workshop fee is €300 (incl. VAT) for participants from new member  
states of the EU and €420 (incl. VAT) for participants from other EU
