While kids and teens sometimes arise in our conversations on tech, culture, and our own experiences, we wanted to dedicate an episode to focus on what it’s like working with them and watching them in the context of screendance. While there are some differences when collaborating with and teaching with this younger demographic, our conversation reveals that the extra creativity, play, and care involved all are values that translate well to working with any demographic.
This episode includes an interview with Alla Kavgan, who shares about her New London Calling, which features an all adolescent cast, plus Frameform’s Jen Ray shares about her collaborations with The JaM Youth Project. We also share personal insights, experiences, and offer suggestions to those planning on - or perhaps who haven’t yet considered - working with kids and teens.

New London Calling - Alla Kovgan (2010)
If I Ruled the World - The JaM Youth Project (2016)
