'The Making of Dance Under Suffolk Skies' provides an insight into the process of creating the film through photos:
Producer, Director & Facilitator: Sam Moss
Filmmaker: Roswitha Chesher
Choreography: Sam Moss & the dancers
Composer: Amy Mallett
114 dancers aged 2 to 80 take us on a journey from open heath to wise river shore, woodland to arable land, flowered meadow to ancient oak in a celebration of Suffolk landscapes & the wildlife within them.
Whilst the film is made up of short sections it is best viewed as a whole. Filmed in June & July 2021 on location between Ipswich and Dunwich, Suffolk. Live screenings September & October 2021.
Supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, by Ipswich Borough Council Area Committee Fund, DanceEast and Suffolk Libraries.
