We are now at the beginning of the twenty-first century; although an interchange exists between new technologies (cinema and audiovisual) and the live performance/show, no real means of interlacing the two disciplines has yet been found.
The stage and the cinema must co-exist, stealing from one another, feeding off reciprocal experiences to pinpoint the expression of a gesture, word, sensation, and to occupy a space with the potential for new dimensions.
This research will create strong synergy between cinema directors and players, whether actors or dancers, so that these identities representing separate and differing concepts of the artistic event may learn to work together to understand the corporal aspect of cinema from the gesture on and filmed images from the physical value of a stage action. By means of this profound sharing of roles, the young director will achieve understanding of theatrical ritual and the actors will learn to interpret their own gestures as field of action for the camera.
