U.Dance on Screen Showcase
What To Expect?
U.Dance on Screen is a showcase of the most innovative youth dance films. It focuses on three core values:
- To celebrate youth dance on screen
- To expand opportunities to showcase youth dance beyond staged performances – into digital spaces
- To encourage wider participation in dance from filmmakers, directors and producers
Each year One Dance UK invites submissions of dance films either by young filmmakers, young choreographers or containing young dancers. An independent panel of film/dance professionals then chooses a selection to be part of the annual youth dance festival.
This year, selected U.Dance on Screen films will be showcased online during U.Dance Digital 2020, part of a varied programme of digital dance events that make up the national youth dance festival. The films will be curated by dance on screen expert Sima Gonsai, with input from Mark Reid, Head of Education at BFI Southbank.
