About the Book

Dance on Screen is a comprehensive introduction to the rich diversity of screen dance genres. It provides a contextual overview of dance in the screen media and analyzes a selection of case studies from the popular dance imagery of music, video and Hollywood, through to experimental art dance. The focus then turns to video dance, dance originally choreographed for the camera. Video dance can be seen as a hybrid in which the theoretical and aesthetic boundaries of dance and television are traversed and disrupted. This new paperback edition includes a new Preface by the author covering key developments since the hardback edition was published in 2001.

List of Illustrations Foreword; B.Lockyer Preface to the Second Edition Preface to the First Edition Acknowledgements Dance on Screen: A Contextual Framework Images of Dance in the Screen Media Video Dance: Televisualizing the Dancing Body Postmodern Dance Strategies on Television Hybrid Sites and Fluid Bodies Appendix Notes Bibliography Index
