How to shoot dancers: new video series merges movement, photography, music and film


Dance must go on in these post-pandemic times. Kwang Tung Dance Company from Kuala Lumpur has rolled out a virtual series called Merentas Awan to keep performances going while coming to terms with the digital future.

Merentas Awan is presented by the company’s youth group The Sel & KL Kwang Tung Association Youth Section. It streams (for free) every second and fourth Monday of the month until December via Kwang Tung Dance Company’s social media channels (Facebook, Instagram and YouTube).
