This full VJ workshop is an invitation to enter the live video field, giving you the theoretical and the technical tools to develop your own live visual project.
We will explore during the workshop the VJ backgrounds, from visual arts to cinema and music, focusing on the dramaturgy of the performance and the performing body on stage.
The participants will be initiated to the specific live technical workflow, including video codecs, and will learn to use Resolume Avenue VJ software.
Each participant will create a short 5-8 minutes VJ set and will play it live at the end of the
workshop.
The workshop is supported by Resolume Software. The participants will receive a free serial number to work with during the workshop duration.
