Last year we held INTERVAL - a new international retreat hosted at #ChisenhaleDanceSpace in collaboration with @fininst_uk_ireland. ⁠ Facilitated over three days by @evamartinezmedina & @_francesmorgan, we’re now thrilled to share the incredible outcomes of the retreat. ➡️ A short film by Daniel Frampton (Immanent Productions) ➡️ A zine bringing together artist reflections and images from the project. Together, these works offer a glimpse into a process grounded in pause, exchange, and collective thinking, capturing both the atmosphere of the time spent together and the questions that shaped it. 🔗 Head to our link in bio to watch the film and read the Interval zine. A big thank you to the incredible artists that took part: ᐧ Carolyn Roy (she/they) London, UK⁠ (@carolynroyplatform) ᐧ Elli Isokoski (she/her) Helsinki, Finland⁠ (@elliisokoski) ᐧ Hanna Lappalainen (they/them) Edinburgh, UK⁠ (@hannalala0) ᐧ Herbert-Cristian Panduru (he/him) London, UK⁠ (@callhimherbie) ᐧ Kardo Shiwan (they/them), Tampere, Finland⁠ (@ckkardo) ᐧ Will Dickie (he/him) Merseyside, UK (@will_dickie_) 📽️📷 Daniel Frampton, @immanentproductions

M E H F O O Z (محفوظ) 🫳🏽 M E H S O O S (محسوس)🫴🏽 How can I give a voice to an inanimate object? To an object that has stood the test of time and holds so many stories in its skeleton frame. If it could speak, what would it share with the world? What memories would it recount? What language would it converse in? A load-bearing structure built to support, would it share the weight of its experiences? Would it tell us of its travels and adventures; uprooted from its home, installed in a storehouse - would it reminisce about its past as the generations that came before us do? A structure so beautifully symmetrical and the ideal of perfection, but the closer you come to it, the more you see its imperfections - imprints of the journey it has made, scars of its history. What if we saw it, listened to it, held it? Would it feel safe enough to tell us its truth? Does it hold trauma as our bodies do? When words are no longer our way in, what if we used our movement to communicate with the colonnade? This work seeks to address these questions, empathising with the Agra Colonnade through embodied intention, collective reflection, and lived experience, navigating the ambivalence of holding on/letting go and protection & conservation/true belonging I had envisioned a live rework of the film, including all movement explorations from our workshops - so grateful to @akademidance for making this a reality!

Mehfooz (محفوظ)✨ - Our Letter to the Agra Colonnade Really missing this special process - getting to know these incredible young dancers who gave so much to the development of this work. A group that holds so much diversity in their movement, culture and identities; their vulnerability and artistry was really beautiful to witness. It was humbling to hear from them, share with them and create on them. Even though we only shared 4 days of creation and 2 filming days together, it felt like we had become a family; creating a safe space with each other to share openly, collaborate together and hold each other through the challenges that this work presented, which was so beautiful! Thank you all for your generosity and for trusting me in this process, @akademidance for involving me in this work and @vam_east for bringing us all together. Can’t wait to see how the final film made by @romain.beck comes out! Here’s a glimpse of our studio time together, and some@of the ideas we explored!

New lighting work 💡 I recently worked as the Gaffer for the first music video by musician @itsruetoyou . I collaborated with the incredibly talented DOP Billy Abbott to create a lighting look inspired by the Tarantino films, hazy 70s style, using warm tones throughout and keeping Rue constantly in the spotlight. To add contrast, I included some cooler light, but overall, it was a great exercise in balancing ambient fixtures with larger controlled sources. I'm really proud of how it turned out, especially considering the tight schedule we had to work with. Big thanks to my spark Aidan clambering through windows! The fixtures we used were: a 300d with a 19-degree spotlight, an f22c as the primary key, a snooted Forza 200, a Forza 300 for ambient fill, a Forza 60 as a topper, four pavo tubes for fill and an MC Pro as an eye light. • • Video Credits Production House - @wearepaenji Director - @nikitus Producer - @jacob.saul.film DOP - @justbillyabbott Gaffer - @neal.megaw Grip - @cornishkraken Spark - @_aidanbrook Camera Assistant - @FilmFiftySix 1AD - Sinead O'Toole Choreographer - @callhimherbie Colourist - @theodoreswaddling Production Assistant - Adrian Peacock Production Assistant - @_artbymack_ MUA - @emua01 HMUA - @layla_haireducator • • Dancers @ellerosegalvin_ dani_tua @jejgalvin @mayes5958 @its_bellaesposito @jemmacarlinwells @smithwightmanofficial @donald_craigie @_amywatkins_ @fernamber @snake_holmes4 @keep.it.reel.uk @danhillmanmusic Special thanks to @brightsideroadside Music Credits Written and arranged by Rue Recorded at Momentum Studios Engineered by Josiah Manning & Barnaby Ray Mixed by Barnaby Ray Mastered at Stardelta Audio Mastering Vocals & Guitar - Rue Bass - Jake Galvin Drums - Barnaby Ray Keys - Martin Jenkins #musicvideo #gaffer #gafferlife #gafferlighting #lighting #lightinginspiration #filmmakinglife #cornwallmusicvideo #cornwallfilm #shotonalexa #anamorphic #musician #kernowfilm #brightsidediner #amarancreative #amarancreators #aputure #aputurelighting #nanlite
