DANCE MEDIA: AN ACTIVE SPECTRUM FULL-DAY CONFERENCE
FRIDAY, JUNE 17    1-10pm
1–6pm DANCE MEDIA: ACTIVE SPECTRUM    Today’s media makers create work with a multitude of platforms in mind.  The “active spectrum” of opportunity includes multi-screen installations, mobile applications, websites, online social networks, and more.  
DCW’s special anniversary panel discussion program will look at the transmedia storytelling approach that offers creators an opportunity to aggregate fragmented audiences by adapting productions to new modes of presentation.  
The day will bring together artists, dancers, educators, innovators, along with creative and business professionals from the television and film industries who are intrigued by collaboration between the dance and film worlds. Why are we making this work and who is going to see it?
