In the culture section of The Guardian webpage, there is an article about “The 360 degree dance project” by Judith Mackrell (the Guardian dance critic). I chose this one because I knew about this project some time ago and I became interested for it very much. I like this kind of projects and creative ideas, where several disciplines can be mixed to get a innovative product which can be useful for many others ideas, to make them grow. For me there are great inspiration sources.
At first, this article relate Degas art of dancers and three-dimensional photography of Francois Willème with the work of Eadweard Muybridge, who capture the movement by stop-motion;all this as a kind of precedent for what Ryan Enn Hughes has been doing.
He put into practice technology of digital photography, audiovisual, editing, design, for make portraits in movement of ballet dancers and hip hop dancers with a 360 degree view.
The author is interested in how this project shows specific moments of the body which it get more intense and can express “a sense of intensity and immediacy” by the capture. It is like an explosion of energy that the movement of the body dancing can reflect. That’s because the author think that as Degas, this project managed the vivid expression of movement.
