Sydney Dance Company: Touch

SPACE | ACTION: Touch Featuring Sydney Dance Company “This film is centered around the first moment the Sydney Dance Company dancers were able to make physical contact again after months of adhering to a strict no-touch policy during Covid. The dancers move between tight, unified choreography and fluid, reactive movement prompted by emotional cues of not being able to touch and then finally joining. It unfolds as a spiraling journey through passageways and stairs down to the core of Phoenix - the rotating platform in the garage. Phoebe Twigg's (ptwiggs) track 'Creation in Destruction' for the film greatly complemented the erratic pace of the edit and the intensity versus relief felt in the dancers movement. – Claudia Brand, Director “Phoenix is an inspirational space, which embodies the nexus between architecture and creativity. Working with the Sydney Dance Company dancers to bring to life a creative response to Phoenix Central Park was a delight. Contemporary dance reflects the new, the future, the vanguard and it was incredible to have the opportunity to make a short film driven by the sinuous lines and surprises around each corner of this breathtaking building.” – Rafael Bonachela, Artistic Director & Choreographer Watch the Behind the Scenes:    • Sydney Dance Company: Touch [Behind the Sc...   Production Company: Entropico EP & CD: Erin Moy Director: Claudia Brand Producer: Jemma Cole DOP: Tom Black Stylist: Emilie Joy H&MU: Celeste Gubb H&MU Assistant: Cassie Lapthorne Gaffer: Tom Keyes Camera Assist: Gary Morris Production Assist: Chloe Hayman Grip: Joe Bruneteau Grip Assist: Mark Glasgow Music: ptwiggs Editor & Colourist: Andrea Chen Compositing: Simon Jackman Set Stills: Evo Artwork Design: Bridget Peters Artwork Animation: Tommy Stone Promo Audio: Rowan Dix ------------- Subscribe to Phoenix Central Park: https://www.youtube.com/phoenixcentra...
