Dance Films Presented Virtually: 11 films & 30 participating professional artists
Number of Views (ongoing – site runs through 2/1/2023): 500 views
CDF 2022 – Virtual Dance Film Gallery has launched and is running smoothly. Overall we feel we have accomplished our goals with the virtual gallery. We would have liked to present around 20 films, however submissions were a little lower this year, bringing our total number of films presented to 11. The biggest challenge this brings is audience reach. To adjust for this, we have put together an extensive virtual marketing campaign to highlight our dance film artists interviews about their works on our social media pages, as well as additional marketing across our platforms.
Many artists have struggled to get their work in front of audiences due to the ongoing pandemic.
During our virtual conference call with our dance film artists, we had a few artists thank The Movement Project for providing a virtual way for them to get their work in front of audiences and to the masses. They expressed that they felt supported in marketing and producing their work and their gratitude for receiving compensation for their contributions to the virtual dance film gallery.
