Intermedial Performance Practice

Posted by jgprimro

Intermedial Performance Practice is a seminar module, which explores the close interrelationship of live performance with other forms of media – from film projections on stage to the use of motion capture, from experimentations with sound to the influence of video games on immersive theatre, from NT Live broadcasts to Zoom shows.

In addition to analysing a wide range of examples of intermedial theatre practice and being introduced to key theories, students on the module also engage in practical experiments each week, which help deepen the discussions.

This year students explored, among other techniques, the use of “live feed” film projections; AR and VR technology; and performing with green screen.
