Dance-film is the marriage of dance and film language—not just recording dancing, but a cinematic reimagining of dance's possibilities. Work that can only exist on the screen. DANCE@30FPS (frames per second) is an international festival of dance-film presented by the Department of Dance at The Ohio State University and screening at the prestigious Wexner Center for the Arts.
We accept short dance-films of live-action and animation . (And of any frame rate.)
The festival has shown work from filmmakers across the world, including Oscar-nominees Mike Figgis and Juanjo Giménez Peña, but the premier criteria is work of unbridled imagination—bold, original, and honest.
In addition to screening at the Wexner Center, the program will also tour to the Cinevox festival in Portland, OR and to Kenyon College.
Before submitting, please remember we are specifically a festival of dance-film, and do not show non-dance related film.
