Dance Film Labs are a year-round series of moderated work-in-progress film screenings led by industry professionals. Moderated screenings offer a fun and creative space to gather and share information on methods and tools, and address technical, practical, and artistic challenges, while providing artists with process-related feedback.
Dance Film Labs are intended to facilitate connections between filmmakers and existing resources that will enhance their works, and are comprised of a moderated screening and discussion, followed by a filmmaker meet-up. Dance Film Labs provide a springboard for filmmakers’ careers and an invaluable networking opportunity for those working on their craft.
