This quarter Drexel Dance faculty member Britt Fishel’s Screendance class had an incredible opportunity to step into the Motion Capture Studio! Students explored the intersection of dance, technology, and 3D computer graphics—learning how movement fuels world-building in dance film. They even got to witness two dancers in mocap suits, bridging the gap between real life and animation. A truly inspiring day of creative discovery!
