Velocity & Northwest Film Forum to Present NEXT DANCE CINEMA, 12/9-10
Velocity and Northwest Film Forum pair up to present Next Dance Cinema, offering dance lovers and film lovers alike insight into how contemporary dance continues to expand the possibilities of the screen.
New this year, the only dance cinema festival in the Northwest is extended to two nights and features the best in local, national and international dance film; plus, the winning selections from On the Boards' 15-Second Dance Film Contest, organized by OtB Ambassadors. To submit, videographers and smart phone users alike can upload a video to Instagram with the hashtag #otb15dancefilmcontest13.
Next Dance Cinema is followed by a weeklong run of Velocity 2013 A.I.R. Dayna Hanson's full-length feature film Improvement Club at Northwest Film Forum.
Next Dance Cinema launches Velocity's Next Fest NW: TOUCH, nine days of performances, screenings, installations and participatory audience labs featuring fresh new voices in contemporary dance and cinema. Next Fest NW 2013 focuses on experiments in TOUCH - interaction and sensation. Performances for blind audiences. Sing-alongs. Artist-constructed social experiences. TOUCH means everyone in this room is in this dance. TOUCH means to perceive through the tactile senses.
Next Fest NW was established to support new work and to encourage investigation of different approaches to dance, not bound by discipline or criteria.
