Opal Productions' aim is to
redefine the language of dance and how it is perceived by the
viewer. By exploring the relationship between moving
images and dance we intend to push the boundaries of the
emerging interdisciplinary field, Dance for Screen. Our
projects are created with the intention of translating the
liveliness of dance to new media spaces through a stimulating
and intellectually demanding visual experience. Viewers
have described recent Opal Productions' projects as
unpredictable, bold, textural and sophisticated.
