27 & 30/11/2007 SWIRE ISLAND EAST "URBAN DANCE FESTIVAL" - DANCE MASTER CLASS Venue : YAF Studio Enquiry : 2877 2656 YAF is thrilled to bring Third Rail Projects from New York City to join the Swire Island East Urban Dance Festival this December. Apart from performing an original piece of site-specific dance work at the festival, their artistic directors also conducted site-specific dance workshops for choreographers and dance artists. Thank you. The master classes have been held successfully. In this workshop, multi-disciplinary artists Tom Pearson and Zach Morris lead participants through their process of creating site-specific movement works. A grab-bag of choreographic tactics focus on working with the architecture of a site to pull images and meaning from its components. Issues of developing work for the public sphere are included: techniques for researching a site and exploring its possibilities in movement; finding hidden meaning in a space and developing methods to amplify it; and experimenting with the most effective methods of capturing and holding an audience's attention in a public setting.
