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 [email protected] to keep this conversation going. What episode stood out to you and why?

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.

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.

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.

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.

Unless you have hit the screendance jackpot, it’s highly unlikely that you are a full-time screendance maker. Carving time out to create your own work can be a bit difficult and sometimes it’s intimidating to start. As Frameform goes into the summer break, we are offering creative prompts designed to help you practice creating dance films on a regular basis. These are not recipes for masterpieces, rather ideas to help you break out of familiar patterns and discover new and interesting ideas for future work regardless of budget or technical familiarity.
Happy creating!

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. We talk all about how she started the LA Dance Shorts Film Festival - now known as Los Angeles Dance Film Festival - and how this project has evolved over the years. 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.

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.

Frameform is thrilled to collaborate with Cinedans on several episodes to commemorate the 20th edition of the Amsterdam-based festival which took place in late March 2024. Through its adventurous film programming along with its substantial professional development program, Cinedans has established itself as a destination event for anyone interested in dance film and welcomes artists from around the world to its in-person event.
Cinedans celebrated its bidecennial (yes, we looked that up) with a five day jam packed event filled with film screenings, meetings, and presentations . One of these presentations was a masterclass given by Iranian-Canadian musician and film director Kavah Nabatian, who also served on the jury of the event. The episode contains a short recording from this masterclass.

Kite Zo A trailer
https://vimeo.com/kavehnabatian/kitezoatrailer
Kaveh’s film “Kite Zo A- Leave The Bones” -a docu screendance that takes a powerful and dynamic journey through Haitian history and culture-was presented in association with the three stated themes of Cinedans’ 2024 event, “Resistance, Resilience & Freedom”. “Grief & Reconciling the Past”, and “Rituals & Healing”. These themes coalesced in a dedicated program called “Breaking the Chains” highlighting films with postcolonial themes from different countries and historical perspectives, portraying ancestral rituals, struggles for independence, spirituality and the persistent pervasive effects of slavery.
The program opened with a ceremonial invocation and was followed by a Q&A with Christian Guerematchi (“CRNI TITO- Blaq Tito Addressing the Parliament of Ghosts”) along with Gabri Christa, Honore Van Ommoren and Steven Elbers from the film Kankantri-The Silk Cotton Tree, which premiere in the program.

Frameform is thrilled to collaborate with Cinedans on several episodes to commemorate the 20th edition of the Amsterdam-based festival which took place in late March 2024. Through its adventurous film programming along with its substantial professional development program, Cinedans has established itself as a destination event for anyone interested in dance film and welcomes artists from around the world to its in-person event. This year’s edition of the festival featured a “Best of” segment where audience’s could view the most popular films from the previous two decades, including three films from Iranian dance artist Tanin Torabi
If you've attended any dance film event in the last few years, you have likely seen the hypnotic film The Dérive which features Tanin moving through a Bazaar in Tehran, the capital city of Iran where dance has been banned since the country's revolution in the late 1970s. Tanin has since created two films set in Tehran, “In Plain Sight” and “Until”, the latter of which was created in the midst of the Woman Life Freedom protests in response to the murder of Mahsa Amini by Iran's morality police.
Clare had the opportunity to speak with Tanin in person at Cinedans 2024, and only a few hours after this conversation took place, “Until” was awarded the Jury Award at Cinedans for Best Dance Short.

Audiences can be strongly divided when it comes to musicals, and the same goes for superhero flicks. Are these “theme park movies” the “death of cinema” or are they just a product of the times? In this roundtable with special guest Steven Butler, we cover many facets of movie musicals, superhero franchise films, and how they reflect the circumstances in which they are made and viewed. Also: what is on the horizon of big screen spectacles and what factors are determining our course forward?

Sean Dorsey is a San Francisco-based choreographer, dancer, writer, teaching artist and cultural activist. Recognized as the U.S.’ first acclaimed transgender modern dance choreographer, Dorsey has toured his work to more than 30 cities across the US and abroad – and taught with his explicitly trans-positive pedagogy in more than 35 cities.
In July 2023, Sean Dorsey Dance presented the North Carolina premiere of the ADF commission “The Lost Art Of Dreaming”, a life affirming experience that invites the audience to reconnect with longing, embrace expansive imagination, connect with joy and pleasure, and propel ourselves toward loving Futures. This tour stop coincided with the ADF Movies by Movers screening of the film “If Cities Could Dance |Transgender Dancer Invites Trans & Queer People to Dream Big” directed by Lindsay Gauthier which profiles Dorsey and his work. The film is currently on a festival tour and recently won an Emmy.
Clare and Hannah moderated this Q&A panel following the screening of the film. On the panel were Sean Dorsey, dancers Nol Simonse, Héctor Jaime, & David Le, costume designer Krystal Harfert, and Technical Director Emily Paulson.
Special thanks to ADF Movies by Movers Artistic Director Jennifer Scully Thurston for the invitation!

Lighting plays a large role in cinematography. In one scenario, light is a tool to just visually see images. While in other cases, light sculpts the features in a space – illuminating the curvatures of people’s bodies, faces, sharp edges on buildings and furniture. Lack of light creates deep undertones such as darkness, evil, mystery, and secrecy while heightening other attributes to a film, like sound and emotion. In all, light is not just a necessity or a need– it’s a tool that serves more purpose than one thinks.
In this episode, we’ll be taking a look at a few handful films that exhibit great examples of integrated lighting as a character. These films use lighting methodically, whether it be elongated shadows, different colored lighting, or even lack of visibility inside a dimly lit landscape. Consider a more thought out lighting set-up for your next film, but listen to this episode first to gather up some ideas.

WARNING: Some explicit language is used in this episode. We recommend using headphones if you have sensitive or young ears around.
In this next installment of our partnership with Capitol Dance & Cinema Festival this season, we are featuring “Ghostly Labor”, a hybrid dancefilm/documentary that has been a hit on the festival circuit, and for good reason! We learn about the integral phases of research and collaboration throughout this production and the exciting next phases of this project.
“Ghostly Labor” explores the history of labor in the US Mexico Borderlands while displaying various percussive dances, movement and musical traditions. An authentic and truly creative approach to documentary, “Ghostly Labor” is a masterpiece in its artistry, impact, and all technical elements.
La Mezcla is a polyrhythmic San Francisco based dance and music ensemble rooted in Chicana, Latina and Indigenous traditions and social justice. Vanessa Sanchez is the founder and executive artistic director of La Mezcla, and a choreographer, dancer and educator. John Jota Leaños is an animator, filmmaker, artist and professor at UC Santa Cruz. Along with a team of experts in their fields, these two have crafted “Ghostly Labor” which we cover in depth in this episode.

Today’s episode is part one of our “Dancine-Docs” series in collaboration with Dancinema, specifically the 2022 Capitol Dance & Cinema Festival in Washington, DC.
We’re connecting with Mimmo Miccolis and Carola Mamberto on their dance and documentary works that celebrate Italian arts and culture.
First, we discuss the short documentary “Miccolis” which covers the story of how Mimmo grew from a boy in rural Italy with a passion for dance to a worldwide success and creative force in the ballet world. Much of Mimmo’s works are focused on social justice issues and can be explored on his website. He is currently a faculty member at the school and choreographer for the Washington Ballet in DC.
Next, we dive into “Magnifica”. Based on the works of Goldschmied & Chiari, and commissioned by the Italian Cultural Society of DC, “Magnifica” exists in many forms. We discuss the live performance, “making of” documentary, and the short screendance that brings new form and life to the signature smoke and mirror artworks of Goldschmied & Chiari.

Today’s episode features two interviews that are linked by the Standard Vision + Dancinema showcase in Downtown Los Angeles and their trailblazing, alternative approaches to artistry and business.
First up, we speak with Caroline Haydon of SVLA about the unique and impactful work they do to offer state of the art production support for artists of all kinds, including those looking to push the boundaries of dance and cinema. From industry-leading studio resources to one-of-a-kind performance and screening opportunities, Standard Vision is on the cutting edge of how to have mainstream impact while maintaining artistic integrity.
In part two of today’s episode, we connect with Nina McNeely, recipient of the SVLA Artistic Achievement Award for her music video “John L'' for Black Midi. Nina’s work spans from small indie productions to large scale commercial works with some of the biggest names in media. She’s a prime example that, as she said in her interview, “if you stick to what you believe in, the world will catch up eventually.”

In today’s episode, we welcome Lolly, a friend of the podcast and Dancinema collaborator. Dancefilm is a special mode of expression and calls for a different approach of reception. Lolly has been our liaison, guiding us to consider screendances – the way we view, feel, and discuss them – from a new perspective.
Lolly’s various projects intersect art, dance and somatic coaching. At Dancinema’s festivals for a few years now, Lolly has led somatic meditations before screenings to help us transition from the buzzing of the outside world into a clearer mind and body space to actively receive the projects on screen. The results have been increased kinesthetic empathy and more lively, reflective conversations to follow each screening.
All of us on the podcast have experienced it for ourselves, and we want to share a version of it for you at home through the podcast. Jump to 38:50 for our Somatic Meditation to play before you watch your next dancefilm, or just as a system reset whenever you need it.
