MENTORS

OUR MENTORS

The INNOVATION program is distinguished by the pairing of each of the recipients of residencies with mentors. The mentor committee is made up of recognized and experienced professionals (dramaturges, rehearsal directors, directors of dance films, set, sound, and lighting designers) who have a wealth of professional experience and vast knowledge in their respective fields.

 

Our mentors will spend time with the selected artists to discuss and dig into topics and experiences such as (but not limited to) :

• How to work on scenography to engage the audience

• How to add integrity to the artistic team

• How to fully exploit lighting to create an atmosphere

• How to work with emotions 

• How to manage the space of a theatre

• The impact of music or a soundscape on a dance piece

• The importance and understanding of technique
