Northwest Screendance Exposition presents its first annual 60 Second Cellphone Screendance Challenge. Now on it’s third year in running, the Northwest Screendance Expo is committed to providing opportunities both locally and globally for the creation, education and enjoyment of dance made for film. In addition to our yearly screendance festival held each fall, NWSE has orchestrated its own outreach program with The Academy of Arts and Academics in Springfield, Oregon. We offer talks, demonstrations and workshops free to the public, and this year facilitated the Eugene premier of Eric Nordstrom’s documentary film Moving History: Portland Contemporary Dance Past and Present.
The NSWE 60 Second Cellphone Screendance Challenge is an entirely cellphone based festival with the goal of making dance for film accessible to artists across all mediums, both new and experienced with the art of screendance. We hope to share with you the versatility and possibilities that can be experienced with screendance as an art form in our current age of technology.
The winner will receive $100. Other prizes may be offered, depending on the generosity of our sponsors!
The top five will have their films screened at the 2017 NWSE, Oct. 13th & 14, 2017.
