“First Try” Documentary

This short documentary (28 min) was one of my largest pandemic projects. I led 14 shoots with 9 videographers in 4 timezones, reviewed 7 years of archive footage, and oversaw 3 weeks of post-production. Concept to premiere was less than 3 months. Now streaming on Broadway on Demand and recognized with Broadway’s Chita Rivera Award.

Josh Prince reflects on his days founding the unique Manhattan-based dance incubator, Dance Lab New York, and we meet three choreographers on their individual journeys through the Lab as they each confront the challenges of choreographing while in quarantine.
