Studio Wayne McGregor Light Atlas

Light Atlas is a Youth Dance Project, a joint initiative between Trinity Laban Conservatorie of Music and Dance and Greenwich Dance Agency.

The Light Atlas project brings together 50 pupils aged 14 to 18 from Lewisham and Greenwich, working with Studio Wayne McGregor to create two spectacular performances performing at Trinity Laban Conservatorie of Music and Dance, Creekside (London, UK).

The Light Atlas dance performance by performing arts company Studio Wayne McGregor combines live dance with filmic 3D animation, all set to a hard-core score propelling the imagination into a fresh dimension. Alien universes collide with real physical power in this futuristic expedition to find the lost Light Atlas; the map of the real tomorrow.

Hotbox Studios worked in collaboration with Studio Wayne McGregor to produce 3D arts animation for Light Atlas. The abstract animation was projected with the performance; created to compliment and add a further dimension to the choreography, score and lighting design.

Collaborating on Light Atlas were Wayne McGregor (Concept, Direction and Choreography), Laila Diallo, Fred Gehrig, Freddie Opoku-Addaie, Hilary Stainsby, Matthias Sperling (Creative Team), Chris Charles (Production Manager), Jasmine Fitter (Project Manager), Mark Hatchard (Animation, Visual Effects and Editing), Seth Dubieniec (Animation and Visual Effects), Tessa Mapp (Animation and Visual Effects), Duncan Price (Animation and Visual Effects).
