Charrier, Julie
She dances almost every day from 4 to 20 years old, then discovers at the CNDC (Centre National de Danse Contemporaine) that movement can take place other than by dancing. She then followed a master's degree in cinema, particularly motivated by video dances. It is moving towards the production of documentary films and recordings of live shows mainly oriented towards contemporary dance for many production companies. As advisor, then columnist and director, she participated in the birth and development of Numeridanse. She coordinates for the ACCN and the Ministry of Culture, delegation to dance, the digitization of French choreographic heritage and created the site 30ansdanse.fr. She is in charge of the artistic direction and production of the "Histoires d’espaces" virtual reality collection for the Aix and Avignon Festivals, as well as the production of some of the episodes. She produces and co-directs with Yvan Schreck, Nous, la danse, a 52-minute documentary, which follows CNDC students for a year. She develops and produces in situ projects where performance poetizes everyday life, awakens creativity, highlights neighborhoods, architectures and reveals the movements of all.
