Alex Pachón. One Second Everyday

Alex Pachón

Video-dance coordinated by Álex Pachon (director of Fiver Team) in the context of the areas of Dance and Technology at the Higher School of Dramatic Art and Dance of the Basque Country, where Alex Pachón was a visiting professor. The project coincided with the period of confinement due to the Covid-19 and lasted 10 hours, divided into an open masterclass in collaboration with the Atalak project and four sessions of an online workshop with final year students, in which the possibilities of the union between cinema, dance and new media were discussed while consolidating the concept and realization of the piece. Additionally, the lecturer in this field, Gorka Martín, and the intern student Raúl Gilan were an active part of the process.

Inspired by the work on the app called 1 Second Everyday, and starting from that perspective, the video-dance tries to create a hypnotic and progressive story that transmits the idea of how four dancers about to graduate lived through those strange weeks of national emergency.

Also, a GIF-like rotoscope and frame-by-frame animation project were carried out, the result of which was incorporated into the montage as credit titles.
