Black Movement Library - Movement Portraits
World Premiere

Black Movement Library - Movement Portraits

New Voices Competition
| United States | 17 MINUTES | English

The Black Movement Library-Movement Portraits serves as a way to learn about the lives of performers contributing their movement data to the Black Movement Library, taking viewers on a journey through each portrait. What happens when we ritualize the archival process of data collection and invite the community as a witness? Using motion capture and Unreal Engine, performers send their movement data to be translated into visuals in real-time.
