About Jumping Frames Dance Video Festival

Dance video is a unique art genre that encompasses the aesthetics of dance and video. Started in 2004 in Hong Kong, Jumping Frames is a biennial festival which aims to facilitate the conversation between two established art forms - Video and Dance. It is the only dance video festival in Asia that features both commissioned works and works for competition. The festival has attracted dance and video artists from all over the world to take part. It serves to promote dance video, as well as to provide a platform for the artists and audience alike to share, discuss and explore the unlimited possibilities of dance video in an artistic and a cultural context.
