Description
Do you have a performance piece you have been working on for some time, with concepts you want to fold into your work but do not know how to accomplish technically or digitally?
Perhaps you are at the early stages of your next creation, and want to gather information and knowledge on what is possible on a technical and digital level?
Or maybe you had a piece originally intended for live performance, and want to carry it over in a digital format?
“I want to write holograms into my piece, how would holograms work on stage?”
This digital dramaturgy “first-aid” program offers creators a free, one-time session (up to 2 hours) with tech and digital specialists Emily Soussana & Andrew Scriver (otherwise known as potatoCakes_digital), to discuss their creation and the technical questions they might have.
After learning about your goals, Emily and Andrew will help you brainstorm and offer possible technical or digital solutions to your needs. They can discuss the technical processes required, as well as potential story-driven digital concepts to best translate your piece digitally.
How It Works:
The Digital Dramaturgy Clinic is an ongoing program, artists in need of assistance should contact Emily & Andrew at potatocakesdigital@playwrights.ca with a short synopsis of their work and the question they wish to address, so that the session can be prepared in advance.
Further consultation can be scheduled if appropriate. This program is set up to help you identify the expertise and technology you need to realize your vision.
