Screendance Africa

Screendance Africa is looking for dance on screen video!

Do you have a short dance video that you would like Screendance Africa to showcase at one of our upcoming mini dance film festivals?

We welcome any genre of dance on screen: documentaries, dance video, narrative or non-narrative, experimental, student and /or professional. Most importantly we are looking for dance videos that activate the cross over of dance, choreography and the cinematic medium. We will select dance videos that demonstrate a clear intention, that use the dance, location(s), choreography, camera movement and the edit to activate this.
