Capturing Motion NYC

Now in its fifth year, Capturing Motion NYC, a Dance Films Association program for high school students in the five boroughs comprised of workshops and a competition, invites students to submit dance films of one-to-five-minute length to be shown at the Dance on Camera Festival. The first portion of the screening will feature this year’s winning film, No room for doubt, from the Barcelona dance film festival Choreoscope’s Young Talents of Catalonia competition, as well as films that previously won the top prize at Capturing Motion NYC. The second half will feature this year’s finalists with a juried discussion led by Gabri Christa (Assistant Professor, Barnard College, Columbia University) and Mickela Mallozzi (Emmy Award-winning host and producer of Bare Feet in NYC). This year’s winning film will also be screened on Closing Night as part of Shorts Program II: Experimental.
