Booking a job is tough process. As a dancer you either know the struggle or will know the struggle at some point. In some cases, we get so close to booking a job or are always getting cut before the last round. But how long do we go through this process before we move on to another focus? How do we tell the difference between when someone leading us on and when the timing just isn't right?In this episode, Brandon talks about 5 signs to look out for when things aren't resulting in a job. He talk about the importance of taking each rejection as information and using that information to make your next move. Although these are not one-size-fits-all situations, they are great check in moments on your professional dance journey. Interested in working with Brandon?

Early on in our careers we can get stuck in this mindset of never feeling like we have enough resources. For some dancers, they have the privilege and opportunity to start their careers with the financial security thanks to their parents, guardians, or someone else who helps fund their career early on. Although this is nice and softens the blow of diving into the real world, it could become a crutch that keeps dancers from fully committing themselves to the career they dream about.In this episode, Brandon talks about why it's not always beneficial to have someone else fund your life at the start. The early days of your professional career is a great opportunity to gain confidence in yourself and what you can accomplish with limited resources. If you do have financial backing, Brandon shares ways you can ease off their payroll and fully step into your financial independence. Interested in working with Brandon?

Imagine the raw energy and elegance of a dancer, the visual storytelling of a film-maker, and the advocacy spirit of an activist all encapsulated in one person. Meet Roxanna Lewis, a versatile artist whose journey has taken her from the dance floor to the director's chair, breaking societal norms and shedding light on autism along the way. Her work with the Infinity Dance Theater, an inclusive company that embraces dancers with and without disabilities, has infused her projects with an emotional depth that transcends the conventional norms of artistry.This episode takes a turn into a deeply personal realm as Roxanna shares her father's battle with addiction and his recent autism diagnosis. This revelation works as a catalyst, leading to a powerful discussion about her own husband's journey with autism. As we navigate these intimate narratives, we glimpse the profound bond that has evolved between Roxanna and her husband, further strengthening their relationship and reshaping her perceptions. We unravel the creation of Roxanna's new film, "Mandy's Voice," exploring the challenges of authentic casting, the communal effort it took to bring it to life in a pandemic-riddled world, and the on-set medical emergencies they had to tackle. This film, a testament to her dedication and passion, serves as an expressive conduit between a mother and a daughter, echoing the importance of communication. As we conclude, we delve into Roxanna's anticipation for her upcoming online autism summit and her desire to connect with a global audience, further emphasizing her advocacy for autism. So, join us on this profound journey that weaves dance, film, and advocacy into a poignant narrative, spotlighting the extraordinary Roxanna Lewis.Support the show
In this episode, we are highlighting the wonderful Jennifer Scully-Thurston, also known as Rogue Dancer. Frameform listeners may already know this friend of the podcast and fellow panelist at last year's Screendance Symposium. Enjoy this conversation with Scully and Jen Ray including experiences producing festivals online and in person, creative approaches to curation and the pursuit of solutions instead of obstacles. Jennifer Scully-Thurston (Scully) is a choreographer, dance filmmaker, curator, journalist, and video installation artist. She is founder and director of FilmFest by Rogue Dancer, a monthly thematic on-line event devoted to dance. She has curated and adjudicated for EnCore: Dance on Film, James River Film Festival, and Screen Dance International.Her dance films have been featured in Core Dance presents… REEL ART (commission), ADF Movies by Movers, Golden Earth Film Award (Best Female Director 2021), Direct Monthly Online Film Festival (Best Female Director 2019), DepicT! (Special Mention), and numerous other prestigious international festivals. She has been an administrator with Grasshorse (character animation studio), HOU & ATL Core Dance (performance company), and NC Arts in Action (in-school public dance program) and is currently Manager of Studio Programs and Community Engagement at the American Dance Festival.More about Rogue Dancer: We believe dance exists outside the walls of a proscenium stage. It can exist in the wild with mischievous playfulness. A person or organization can create work anywhere that wanders and behaves in unusual ways. The creation and presentation of Dance Film is a great representation of these ideas. We are dancers who have gone off grid to create work in our own way, with our own rules.–Thank you to Scully for being our first ever Frameform Fan and all of the wonderful support and engagement over the years. We are thrilled to share about your dynamic body of work and we're looking forward to having Frameform be part of ADF's Movies by Movers this season!–Listen to Season 3 Screendance Symposium Panel EpisodeWatch and Submit to FilmFest By Rogue DancerBecome a Rogue Dancer Patreon SupporterAmerican Dance Festival's Movies By Movers Follow on IG @roguedance @amerdancefest –Got a question?

I work with two types of dancers:1) The dancer thats knows what they want and we're striving for a specific goal2) The dancer who that doesn't have a clear idea of what they want and might subconsciously be putting their dance career on the back burner.There's nothing wrong with not knowing what you want, BUT we need to know that a dance career doesn't "just happen." You need to go all in if you want the career you envision for yourself.In this episode, Brandon breaks down three steps dancers need to take to put their careers first. It's important that dancers make the transition of thinking about dance as a career instead of a hobby. To do that, they need to invest in it and take risks that support that vision.Interested in working with Brandon?

In the contemporary world, collaboration is a daily practice. If we can hone our skills as a collaborator, we will prove to be more valuable in creation process and also get a head start on our own choreographic or teaching journeys. In this episode, Brandon kicks off the "Collaboration Series" by talking about manipulating phrases. How do we take information or movement provided by a choreographer and make our own or improve it to support the greater piece? How can we practice manipulating movement before we are in professional settings? In this episode, Brandon offers ideas and tools to help you find your own collaborative voice.

She has also collaborated with Elvis Presley, Talking Heads, to The Muppets. In 2008 Toni received Hip Hop International's highest award "Living Legend of Hip Hop." Former recipients include Don “Campbellock” Campbell, Boogaloo Sam, MC Hammer, DJ Kool Herc, and Grandmaster Caz.Toni is co-founder and one of the 7 original members of the 1970s legendary The Lockers, which now is considered "the group that changed the face of dance." She is recognized as a seminal influence in bringing street dance to the attention of the American public. She is currently writing a book on the history of American Street Dance.Toni was presented with an Emmy Award for a commercial featuring MC Hammer. She has worked on an incredible range of television programming, from TV Land's SALUTE TO SOUL TRAIN, NAACP IMAGE AWARDS, NBC TV's SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, SESAME STREET, and countless music awards shows.Toni's most notable feature film credits include choreography for such classics as George Lucas' AMERICAN GRAFFITI, PEGGY SUE GOT MARRIED, MY BEST FRIEND'S WEDDING, to LEGALLY BLONDE. Her subtle choreographic hand was visible throughout Tom Hanks' directorial debut THAT THING YOU DO!, and more recently in Quentin Tarantino's 2019 film, ONCE UPON TIME… IN HOLLYWOOD, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, and Margo Robbie.Toni received a double platinum record for her multi-million-selling global smash hit single “Mickey” and a Gold Album for 1981's WORD OF MOUTH album, which also led to Gold Albums in the UK, Canada and Australia. She received a Grammy Award nomination for her WORD OF MOUTH long-form video album, which she conceptualized, produced, choreographed, and directed.Billboard Magazine's #1 Song for the Month of December 1982, “Mickey” was installed in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as one of the ground-breaking singles of the 1980s. The “Mickey” music video was shown at the Museum of Modern Art in 1992, which earned Toni a place as an American Video Artist in the coveted Museum of Modern Art's calendar.She starred, co-directed, and choreographed two self-titled BBC-television specials, which were re-aired in record time due to unprecedented audience response, and are credited as launching “Mickey” as a hit single in the U.K. charts and, ultimately, worldwide after appearing in a wide variety of television shows.Toni has acted in numerous legendary films including EASY RIDER and FIVE EASY PIECES, and has appeared as a dancer in countless films in the 1960s from PAJAMA PARTY to Bob Fosse's SWEET CHARITY. Toni has also directed short art films: GAME OF THE WEEK, A DANCE FILM, OUR TRIP, and THE PING PONG MATCH. Pre-dating music videos, these avant-garde pieces found a new audience and were exhibited at the Santa Monica Museum of Art and New York's Grey Art Gallery. The L.A. Times noted that filmmaker Toni Basil's deft editing transformed an ordinary ping pong match between Gray and Stockwell (both noted American actors) into an energetic dance routine.As a classically trained dancer, Toni continues to dance and attend Locking, Hip Hop, and African dance classes by day, and underground dance clubs at night. She has immersed herself in the Latin music and dance scene, and has guest performed singing, dancing and playing percussion with the top Los Angeles based salsa bands.She adds to her list of expertise in world dance and partnering Afro/Cuban, Tango, Flamenco, Salsa, East Coast and West Coast Swing.Continuing in the family tradition (her father: an orchestra leader, and mother: a vaudevillian), she has excelled in every entertainment medium: stage, music, commercials, television, film and video. Her unique form of artistic mastery is at the heart of all of her work. She remains a true pioneer in the dance world, a visionary, and a genuine American treasure.From judging street dance events internationally to being a trending viral video, Toni has always being on the cutting edge of pop culture, and shows no sign of stopping.Want to know more?

“The mediator between the head and the hands must be the heart”With its myriad manifestations of choreography through the body and filmic form as well as themes surrounding the mechanization of the human body that almost resonate more strongly today than they did almost a century ago, Fritz Lang's seminal Metropolis easily has a place in the dance film canon.This week, the Frameform team takes a deep dive into Metropolis (1927) and assesses it through a screendance/dance film lens. They contextualize the work with other film (City Symphonies, early avant-garde) and dance (cabaret, expressionist movement) movements of the time and examine how the film works not only as a time capsule of its moment, but also as an eerie foreshadowing of the evolution of film, the body and society as a whole.--FILMSMetropolis (1927)Dir.
