    That's a wrap!

    That’s right, we are coming to a close to season 5 and the Frameform series. It’s been a wonderful 5 years of making this show, but as time evolves, so have our lives and workloads…so we’re putting a pin in it. Today we’re reflecting on a wonderful season of interviews and discussions while also looking back at the past 5 seasons of lively topics that we have covered. We’re having heart to hearts, and getting a little gushy, but isn’t that what friendship is all about sometimes? We want to thank all the listeners and subscribers who downloaded our show, interacted with us on social, and participated in this little project that we created. This is not the complete ending to this series as we’ll be re-releasing all of our episodes on YouTube for you to access. Be sure to subscribe to our Patreon to find out when those re-releases are available. Thank you again, and please keep in touch! We would love to continue Frameform and make recorded dance film conversation accessible to all, but on a different scale. If you are a festival curator, organizer, dance film writer, whatever you call yourself, we would be happy to collaborate. Don’t be shy, send us an email at frameformpodcast@gmail.com to keep this conversation going.

    The Uprooted Experience: Co-presented with Dancinema and The JaM Space

    Well, aside from our wrap up, it’s our final episode of Season 5. Today we’re having a bit of a full circle moment and revisiting a project we covered in our very first season. Listeners of Frameform may remember our interview with some of the team behind Uprooted: The Journey of Jazz Dance from Season 1.  This doc has had a long and successful festival run, earned countless awards, been available on HBO (now Max) and has now evolved to internationally touring events called “The Uprooted Experience”. For the live event component of Capitol Dance & Cinema Festival this season, Dancinema hosted an Uprooted Experience in the DC Metro area. We had an encore screening of the film and three awesome dance classes you’ll hear snippets from. Our classes and faculty were: African Dance with Robin Gee, African American Social Dance with Cat Foster, and Tap with Germaine Goodson.  The day concluded with a panel discussion and Q&A with the faculty and Lisa Donmall-Reeve, film producer and project education director. - This episode is a mini, virtual way to have your own Uprooted Experience.  1:40 African Dance with Robin Gee (of Greensboro Dance Film Festival) 10:53 African American Social Dance with Cat Foster 19:19 Tap with Germaine Goodson. 22:28 Panel discussion   - Recommendations from the faculty: Free to Dance Ep.1 Ep.2 Ep.3 Ted-Ed: History of African-American Social Dance Stormy Weather (1943) Excerpts: Jumpin Jive, Katherine Dunham Scene, Cake Walk Cabin in the Sky (1943) Playlist: Dance and Performance Scenes Hellzapoppin’ (1941) Excerpts: Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers, A Day at the Races Jacob’s Pillow YouTube Archives  New York Public Library Jerome Robbins Dance Division - Want even more Frameform?

    Andy Margetson: When state of the art meets mass appeal

    While the concepts of mass appeal and state of the art don’t always dance well together, today’s guest has proven that you can accomplish both.  If you’re a dancefilm enthusiast you’ve very likely to have seen Andrew Margetson’s films, which are quickly identified by their high caliber dance and flawless cinematography. If you’re a curator, you have likely included a few of them in your programming over the past decade.  Andrew’s short dancefilm oeuvre includes the following we cover in this episode: Stavropol, Lil Buck with Icons of Modern Art, Duet, Reborn and Step By Step with Lauren Cuthbertson. In addition to being popular on the festival circuit and persistent audience favorite, he also has a successful career making commercials, many of which feature dance and movement. Today we cover all of this, plus an exciting change of direction for his next project. Andrew is usually the one behind the scenes sharing others stories. Today, we’re turning the focus to hear his perspective.   Learn and Explore More: Andrew Margetson Website @andymargetson on Vimeo and Instagram Watch Nokia MTV Commercial Watch Andy’s short dancefilms   -- Want even more Frameform?

    Nordic Screendance Network

    This week’s episode of Frameform features three extraordinarily experienced artists-Kati Kallio, Maia Sorensen and Helena Jonsdottir- who wear many hats in the screendance field as filmmakers, curators, educators and more. Clare spoke with them about their work in screendance creation, curation and education and how it is informing the establishment of a nascent Nordic Screendance Network. The conversation broaches the necessity of regular in-person meetings for practitioners as well as how the strength of a network can aid in the advocation of a more sustainable screendance field for those working in it. Kati Kallio is a prolific filmmaker based in Finland who was a co-founder of the Loikka Dance Film Festival, which ran between 2008-2018. Maia Sorensen is a Copenhagen-based artist and facilitator whose integrated artistic and curatorial practice includes work with ScreenMoves/Dansehallerne (DK) and the international dance film competition 60secondsdance. Helena Jonsdottir is an artist based between Brussels and Reykjavik whose artistic practice of films with a movement based core bears the name Physical Cinema, which is also the name of her long running festival.  –   https://www.katikallio.com/ https://maiaelisabethsorensen.com/ Loikka Dance Film Festival Archives Physical Cinema Festival Reykjavík Iceland   Argos centre of audiovisual arts in Brussels      10 Moving North dance films created in 2003 https://www.scenarkivet.se/uppsattning/1669/moving-north-ten-short-dance-films/mer/ + https://www.dfi.dk/viden-om-film/filmdatabasen/film/moving-north,  –  Got a question?

    A love letter to dance with Maggie Bailey

    Hello! We’re back from our summer recess which means we have more episodes to come for the rest of the 2024 year! For today’s episode, Hannah sits down with Austin, Texas filmmaker Maggie Bailey, discussing her 2022 dance documentary, Moving Together. This particular doc is something I myself (Hannah), have not seen in the dance documentary mode. What made this movie really stand out from others is that the story blends a soothing balance of cinematic movement that we commonly see in screendance, but then pairing those vignettes with gentle interview voiceover. Overall, Maggie guides viewers on a weaving journey between the relationship of music and dance through the lens of 6 collaborators who approach the art form in their own way. In this interview, we learn about Maggie’s technical process for making Moving Together and dive into some of the elements that make this movie extra special.   – Moving Together logline Moving Together explores the intimacy of collaboration between musicians and dancers in Flamenco, Modern, and New Orleans Second Line in both performance and class environments. As artists, we collaborate with other disciplines consistently, but what pulls us back to specific people for collaboration?  
 This feature length, performative documentary investigates the relationships between Michael Wall, modern dance accompanist and composer, and Jesse Zaritt, dancer and choreographer; Olivia and Isai Chacon, a Flamenco dancer and Spanish guitarist; and New Orleans natives Michelle N. Gibson, cultural ambassador, choreographer, performer, and Thaddeus Ford, sixth generation Trumpet player.  – Follow and get in touch with Maggie Bailey www.maggiembailey.com @maggiembailey  @movingtogetherfilm –  Got a question?

    Frameform x LADFF

    We love connecting with the people behind the scenes at festivals. In today’s episode, we speak with Nicole Spring of the Los Angeles Dance Film Festival.

Nicole cares deeply about serving the community through these events and has proved to be open to adapting to best do that. We’re excited to share more about how LADFF has grown with her leadership and what is coming up next for this festival. We also discuss challenges and decision making from the perspective of curators and producers, and offer some tips for filmmakers.   Learn and Explore More: @ladancefilmfest on IG, FB, X, Vimeo, YouTube

    LOCATION SCOUT: Black Boxes

    Most theater-goers are familiar with black boxes. We’re not talking about literal boxes that are black but in a way it’s not totally off the mark. Walking inside a black box theater, it’s pretty bare and minimal – empty space, a place for an audience to sit, and maybe a few studio lights for dramatic lighting. These spaces may not have that grand sparkling feeling when you walk into a 200+ capacity, red curtain adorned proscenium, but it serves very much the same purpose: possibility in creativity. In this location scout round table discussion we’ll be spotlighting a few films that take place in these spaces. The set may not exhibit a lot of pizazz and visual stimulation, but the concepts present big ideas that add to the narrative. Here we learn that black box theaters are meant to host possibilities, fill in the holes with imagination, and let the performance do the talking. – FILMS STILL DANCING Albacete, Spain Director & Dancer: Anton Valdbauer @deepdivedance https://vimeo.com/613317072 Snap Into It. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnjUlViflTc Director of Photography: Devin Jamieson Choreographed, Danced and Spoken by: Jillian Meyers Composed by: Matt Cady OUTOPIA Slovenia/UK https://vimeo.com/624750258 Inspired by director Franc Kranjc  Director: Helen Rollins  Writers: Adrian Romero and Helen Rollins  Producers: Johnny Rollins, Peter Rollins, Adrian Romero, and Lisa Kruse  Young Actor: Jack Boyle HONORABLE MENTIONS   A Flower - Skyla Schreter  Three on Four  (excerpt) - Marty Buhler Standing Between Two Walls - Manizha  – Become a Patreon Supporter and enjoy our exclusive resources released last summer and coming up this year.  Got a question?
