Special Topic: Choreography for the Camera Lab

Catalog description

This zero-credit lab, accompanies PACD 421 : Choreography for the Camera to provide students further experience in choreographing movement for different types of on-film work. As in PACD 421 , students learn to “choreograph the camera” to achieve the shots necessary to capture the physical movement they have created. Students work hands-on with dancers to create work that then must be translated onto film. The projects range from choreographing assignments such as a television commercial, a music video, to film segments, and live television. Students study daily with high profile industry choreographers who are prevalent in the teaching of these techniques.
