Dance Film SF (DFSF) brings dance to wider audiences through the presentation and development of dance-based films. We celebrate the best dance films from around the world, encourage and assist choreographers and filmmakers in the creation of new dance works specifically created for camera, and educate and engage diverse audiences in the wonderful world of dance.
San Francisco Dance Film Festival: SFDFF was established in 2010 by dancer/filmmaker Greta Schoenberg. Beginning with a handful of dance films presented in a small gallery, this annual festival soon expanded to the 75-seat 9th Street Independent Film Center showing two nights of films. In 2013, Schoenberg joined forces with Executive Director Judy Flannery who invited the European DanceScreen to partner with SFDFF for their first U.S. dance film festival. The 2013 festival received over 300 dance film submissions and grew into a four-day festival with industry panels, workshops, and discussions. Now in its ninth year, SFDFF will host an entire month of events with main screenings from October 11-14, 2018 at the 360-seat Brava Theater. The 2018 festival venues will also include the Catharine Clark Gallery, the Atrium Theatre, and the Variety Preview Room. The festival program will feature over 100 film screenings, filmmaker forums, live performances, Q&A sessions, and a closing night of Bay Area dance films and Co-Laboratory film premieres. This closing night has become a celebration of the local dance and film community and has sold-out for the past three years.
Co-Laboratory: For the past six years, our Co-Laboratory program has supported local choreographers and filmmakers in the creation of new dance films. Providing an opportunity for creative exchange, the program pairs professional choreographers and dancers with filmmakers to create screendance films - dance works choreographed for the camera - within one intensive week. DFSF provides each artistic team with the space, time, and resources for creation, rehearsal, production, and post-production. The ensuing Co-Laboratory films premiere at the annual San Francisco Dance Film Festival (SFDFF) and then screen at other festivals in the US and abroad, putting a spotlight on San Francisco's dance and film communities.
