OURO Collective members Rina Pellerin, Eric Cheung, and Shana Wolfe lead us through movement concepts influenced by OURO’s fusion of waacking, popping, and contemporary dance. While we experiment with movement through the lens of the camera, Ben and Raphaël will accompany with live improvised music (drums and bass) and guide us through music listening exercises. Participants will create and present their own short movement video by the end of the workshop.
FORMations is open to all dance backgrounds and experience levels, prioritizing participants between the ages 15 to 25.
All you need to bring is yourself, comfortable clothes to dance in, and a phone with space to record a few videos. Expect to play the role of dancer and filmmaker in this jam and see your short movement film come to life!
FORMations 2022
Our annual FORMations Jam was back in-person with the help of Sophia ‘Sosa’ ofBarangay Project! Sosa lead us through a jam-packed 4 hour movement and filmmaking jam, where participants indulged in movement creation and improvisation followed by creating a one-take short film by the end of the jam. These videos are the resulting films from the workshop!
Huge thank you to Sophia for facilitating, KW Studio’s for the venue support (and amazing lighting design by Tori!), Modus Coffee for keeping us energized and of course, to the participants for joining us!
