Frameform | Season 2 Wrap Up
That’s a wrap for Season 2! But before we go on break, we finally had the chance to sit down together in the same room and reflect on our podcast journey. As we look back on Season 2, we thank all the humble guests who sat with us to learn about their point of view on dance film. Furthermore, we gag and giggle on the possibilities of what’s to come for seasons ahead. Thank you to all who have been listening and supporting us during the past 2 seasons. We’ll see you next year! -- Capitol Dance and Cinema Festival https://www.dancinema.co/watch October 2021 Sign up to watch online Free -- Got a question?

Frameform | Location Scout: Desert
On our last episode of Location Scout, you voted for us to cover films that were in water locations. However, fear not if you pined for the DESERT as that’s where we are headed next. For quite some time, desert locations have been making its rounds in the dance film circuit. With its empty surroundings and expansive room for birds eye drone shots, this dry landscape is a great backdrop for shape shifting patterns of movement. As we buckle up with our bottles of water for our discussion, Clare talks with dance filmmaker and educator, Scotty Hardwig, looking at his piece “Our Last Aria,” and discussing the landscape of our potential future FEATURED Clouded (2018) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqQXfG9lpQI&ab_channel=WillJohnston Dir.

Frameform | Deep Dive: Metropolis
“The mediator between the head and the hands must be the heart” With its myriad manifestations of choreography through the body and filmic form as well as themes surrounding the mechanization of the human body that almost resonate more strongly today than they did almost a century ago, Fritz Lang’s seminal Metropolis easily has a place in the dance film canon. This week, the Frameform team takes a deep dive into Metropolis (1927) and assesses it through a screendance/dance film lens. They contextualize the work with other film (City Symphonies, early avant-garde) and dance (cabaret, expressionist movement) movements of the time and examine how the film works not only as a time capsule of its moment, but also as an eerie foreshadowing of the evolution of film, the body and society as a whole. -- FILMS Metropolis (1927) Dir.

Frameform | Location Scouting: Water
You voted for it, so we’re talking about it! In today’s Location Scouting episode, we're focusing on dancefilms taking place in WATER locations. Just a water’s range is vast from vapor to ice, so are the variety of dancefilms that involve water. As we focus on three examples, we will discuss the meaning of water and how the location plays a key role in each of these dancefilms. Of course, we also share some general wisdom for anyone looking to create their dancefilm in a watery location. -- FEATURED Cygnus (2018) Dir. by Cara Hagan and Robert Uehlin Uath Lochans (2015) Dir. by Katrina McPherson, Simon Fildes, Marc Brew The Stop (2018) Dir. by Liudmila Komrakova Also Mentioned: Dune (1984) Dir. by David Lynch Rare Birds (2015) Dir. by T.M.

Frameform | Fabricating Identities: Costumes & Characters
Costumes transform a subject -- instantly creating a character, a personality, or a mood for the screen. The sheets of fabric, material, or in some cases sculpted masterpieces, take the shape to the character’s storyline, portraying a larger role to the picture. In today’s discussion, we will take a closer look at some exquisite examples of imaginative costumes, how they are structuring the dance landscape, and uncovering the physical and metaphorical layers they leave behind. Alongside our weekly roundtable, Jen sits down with fellow Vancouver filmmaker, Rodrigo Rocha-Campos, discussing his personal filmmaking interests and practices, while also taking a deeper look at his costume trilogy, A Full Circle.
