Trifecta Dance Collective presents the third annual Trifecta Dance Festival January 22-26, 2020, featuring 65 separate works from artists throughout the Midwest, plus the newly added Dance Film Festival. DancerMusic spoke to TDC Co-founders Krissie Odegard-Geye and Carrie Patterson. Here's what they told us about this spectacular 5-day festival:
Ashley Deran founded A. Deran Photography in 2011 with a focus on dance concert events and dance publicity. Since then, she has photographed for companies including Chicago Dance Crash, The Seldoms, Chicago Repertory Ballet, Inaside Chicago Dance, Chicago Dance History Project, Salty Lark Dance Company, The Chicago Fringe Festival, Columbia College, and Western Michigan University. It is also worth mentioning that Ashley is an established dance artist in Chicago and is the Co-Director of Project Bound Dance. Her keen eye both inside the studio and behind the camera lens, as well as the ability to direct a dancer in both circumstances, produce sharp, expressive images that any dancer would love to have. In this 4PHOTOS, Ashley takes us through the four images that every dancer should have in their portfolio, plus the do's and don'ts on how to get them. Here's a pro's advice on how to put your best foot (and face) forward:
Inaside Chicago Dance begins their fifteenth season with their Fall Concert on Saturday, October 28.
