The team from the German Dance Film Institute Bremen is currently accompanying a dance medicine research project at Goethe University Frankfurt led by Prof Dr Dr Eileen M. Wanke. The focus is on analysing the movements of professional dancers during training and rehearsals. State-of-the-art cinematic measurement technology (motion capture) is used to collect data that should help to make the dance profession safer – and at the same time provide unique filmic insights into the work of the company.
