Meet the Panel of Dance Media Experts

Kristin Sloan, during her professional career as a dancer for New York City Ballet, and later as the Director of New Media for NYCB, Ms. Sloan began to further explore her interest in the intersection of art and technology. In 2005 she launched the website TheWinger.com, currently home to over 30 dancers, choreographers, teachers, and experts who write about their life and experiences as a part of the dance world. Ms. Sloan’s work on The Winger has lead to speaking engagements, writing assignments and a national television commercial for Apple Inc.’s iPhone, in which she speaks about the site. She is frequently cited in articles on dance and technology, and was interviewed for Allen P. Adamson’s recent book “Brand Digital”.  Check out her latest work at Kristin Sloan.com.

Marc Kirschner is the founder and General Manager of TenduTV. TenduTV will be distributing content through 70 top digital platforms, including iTunes, Hulu, CinemaNow and Comcast’s Fancast.com. These partners and others will enable audiences to consume and purchase dance content on 200 million devices in 10 countries, including iPods, TiVos, Blu-Ray players and internet-enabled televisions. Kirschner oversees TenduTV’s content acquisition efforts and distribution partnerships, and works closely with industry leaders to ensure the protection of dance in the digital age. Kirschner created the concept of digital licensing for choreography and executed the first such licensing deals in the dance industry. 

LARRY KEIGWIN’s prolific and wide-ranging dance career began the day he auditioned as a back-up dancer for Downtown Julie Brown on Club MTV (he got the gig).  Today he is the Artistic Director of KEIGWIN + COMPANY.  K+C is committed to creating work that is accessible and entertaining while remaining innovative and intelligent.

In addition to Larry’s choreographic work with K+C, his recent commissions have included The New York City Ballet’s Choreographic Institute, The Martha Graham Dance Company, The Juilliard Dance Ensemble, The NYU/Tisch School’s Second Avenue Dance Company, Paradigm, Hofstra University and California Institute of the Arts.  His other choreographic credits include work with the pop band Fischerspooner, comedian Murray Hill and as an Associate Choreographer for both the The Radio City Rockettes and the Off-Broadway musical “The Wild Party”.  As a dancer Larry has danced at the Metropolitan Opera in Doug Varone’s “Le Sacre Du Printemps” and Julie Taymor’s “The Magic Flute” in addition to his work with Mark Dendy (receiving a Bessie Award in 1998 for his performance in “Dream Analysis”), Robin Becker, Jane Comfort, John Jasperse, Doug Elkins, Zvi Gotheiner, and David Rousseve.  He appeared in the Broadway bomb “Dance of the Vampires” and the Julie Taymor, Oscar nominated film “Across the Universe.”  In his spare time, Larry has created “Keigwin Kabaret,” a fusion of modern dance, vaudeville, and burlesque acts presented by the Public Theater at Joe’s Pub and by Symphony Space.

Movement Media is excited to present a panel of Dance Media Experts who share innovative ways to promote dance with video at this year’s APAP Convention.
