Dance on Camera

Catalog description

This course will explore the choreographic and cinematic aspects of producing a dance for the camera. A dance for the camera is a synthesis between the various techniques of film/video and the act of choreography. This course will encourage you to expand the skills you developed in previous dance or choreography classes, and to focus on the difficult yet rewarding process of creative collaboration. Be prepared to focus on this collaborative process and concentrate much of your energy on finding ways to improve your communication with and contributions to your team.

If you think you are qualified, please contact the instructor for permission. Fulfillment: This course counts toward the Cross-School Dance Minor hosted by Tisch School of the Arts at NYU. Repeat rule: Non-Repeatable. Students can only take this course once during their study at NYUSH.
