Frame Rush

Frame Rush is an annual festival of screendance works programmed by the MA Screendance students at London Contemporary Dance School. Each year’s cohort presents a distinct public event, informed by their desires and interests, at The Place in London. Welcome!

Frame Rush 2024 welcomes local and international artists to submit movement-focused films that reflect what it means to be present in today’s society. We aim to elevate and offer a platform to recognise historically marginalised voices both behind and in front of the camera.

If you have previously submitted a film that was not selected, we welcome you to re-enter at a discounted fee - each year the festival board changes. Films made with a variety of styles, techniques and production budgets will be equally considered. We embrace any work that expands the definition of screendance. If your financial circumstances prevent you from entering a film that matches the event call, please contact us explaining your circumstances and we can offer a waiver.
