Unless you have hit the screendance jackpot, it’s highly unlikely that you are a full-time screendance maker. Carving time out to create your own work can be a bit difficult and sometimes it’s intimidating to start. As Frameform goes into the summer break, we are offering creative prompts designed to help you practice creating dance films on a regular basis. These are not recipes for masterpieces, rather ideas to help you break out of familiar patterns and discover new and interesting ideas for future work regardless of budget or technical familiarity.

Happy creating!
