ROSALIND PETERSRosalind Peters is an independent artist and filmmaker based in London, U.K. She has strong links to the dance film community in London and her work is heavily informed by movement and rhythm, often working with aspects of dance or with dancers. Many of her films have been screened at dance film festivals.

The first class she taught in spring term 2005 was called “Dance for the Camera”. Her second class she taught in fall 2005 was in video Production Design. Both of these classes drew upon her film/video industry experience and her practice as an artist using video. Since the late 1990s she has worked in the film industry, most often within the art department on Films, TV and commercials and she has art directed and assistant directed a number of highly successful dance films funded by companies such as Bravo, the BBC and Channel Four.
