Improvisation with film is the title of my research regarding the analysis of improvisation created by various videography tools, editing processes, and special effects creating spontaneous dynamics during film. As a videographer, I filmed five dancers exploring movement improvisation for a session of twelve minutes. I provoked questions such as how can film improvisation exist when improvisation is emphasized on process, not product. A camera's sole purpose is to create a product. While taking cues from the dancers movement the filmmaker is making improvisational, spontaneous decisions yet as an audience member watching the product of the film, these decisions are not evident unless spoken about beforehand. Is it possible to keep the integrity of improvisation within film and dance for the filmmaker, performer, and audience? There are multiple variables to consider to which I analyze in this one hour study that has been assigned as a part of my first year during The Ohio State University's department of dance. I continued my research with improvisation with film within my History/Theory/Literature II class paper. If you have further interest in the film created in this research, it is posted on my YouTube channel, or read about it in my blog. If you wish to read my paper on my research, please reach out to me via email; schriner.30@osu.edu.
