We operate as a not-for-profit organisation that aims to inspire artists, filmmakers, dancers, choreographers, and audiences around the world with the language of dance, cinema & artistic narratives.
Dance Cinema is an online archive cinema that offers regular, high quality screen dance works directed by visual / dance artists and filmmakers whose production lies in-between contemporary art, dance and cinema.
Films and videos are published for 1 month, and featured alongside podcast interviews with their makers – from directors to dancers, editors to cinematographers, sound to costume designers.
Screendance works are selected due to the importance of their content, their collaborative curiosity, and originality in blurring the boundaries between cinema, dance, and contemporary art. We present a diversity of styles and creative sensibilities, and celebrate works by both established and emerging artists.
Based in Sydney, Australia, we host annual public festival screenings, gallery exhibitions and dance filmmaking workshops.
