"The
use of digital imagery technology has resulted in
the addition of a new type of shot to the grammar
of video/film. This is the "processing shot,"
which results from the application of digital techniques
to create moving picture material that may or may
not be derived from camera and editing shots. The
resulting imagery enables the evolution of a new visual
aesthetic of flow and transformation, which can be
closely related to the spatial and temporal continuum
of dance. Projecting this imagery as part of a dance
piece opens up new possibilities for integrating moving
images with performance." (See Paper #6: Theatrical
Use of Digital Image Processing in Dance Performance)
The
images here originated from my choreography that was
recorded on a Sony PC 1 digital video camera in a
blue
screen room. Also see the performance
web album and the Active
Space technical diagram.
