Video Links

- NO PASSWORDS PLEASE

- TEST your video link before submissions that they work

- Video ONLY of the work that you are submitting and not a timestamp to search within a 2 hour video

- If your video submission does not compile with these criteria, you will receive an email and possibly a short turn around time to send the proper link or your application will not be viewed by the adjudication panel.

​

Selection Process

- 2 Adjudicators review the video submissions and score them on Choreography (50 pts), Dancers' Technique & Performance (30 pts.) and Professional Technical Elements (costuming, props that relate to the choreography, 10 pts)

- Submissions are then ranked and Caroline Calouche, Festival Director, selects the program.  She factors in what will be marketable and enjoyable to the Charlotte audience and creating a diverse program.
