Arranging Movement in Film



Weekend Workshop on Film-Choreography

Arranging Movement in Film - Sarah Möller

Movement is a crucial point of connection between choreography and cinematography. But how can physical and cinematic movement be arranged, composed, and interwoven?

This workshop explores a range of methods and strategies for connecting dance and film through close analysis of selected works and hands-on experimentation. By examining the genesis, processes, and techniques behind key examples, we will uncover underlying scores, structures, and compositional approaches.

The workshop is structured into four sessions, each accompanied by a curated selection of films, readings, and creative exercises designed to spark dialogue and exploration. The aim is to provide historical and conceptual insight into the hybrid format of dance film while supporting participants in developing and refining their own artistic ideas.

Arranging Movement in Film is designed for a small group of around 10 participants, fostering a collaborative setting where individual knowledge, questions, and perspectives are actively woven into the process. It offers a platform for inspiration and intense exchange and supports participants in sharpening their own ideas and artistic approach.
