Sleeping with Frank (2010)
Sleeping With Frank shows a slice of a morning in Queens, NY. A couple readies for the day. Wake-up, get dressed, eat breakfast. The tableaux are familiar: cozy, rote, intimate and distant. Dance and choreographed gestures reveal a potent underbelly to the lacquer of such domestic normalcy

Sea Meadow (2011)
A young woman stumbles upon a seemingly empty estate. Hesitantly she enters and wanders its chilling insides: a Pandora's Box that entices and haunts her with a series of stylized dance tableaux. History reveals itself in these poignant flashes. She is in fact a ghost in her own home. Through a visceral, visually striking sequence of events, Sea Meadow revamps the thriller genre using dance, gesture and pop-music mashups to investigate the themes of identity, mortality and memory.

A Juice Box Afternoon (2014)
This is the first in Lily Baldwin's Paperback Movie Project. Each short film is an interpretation of a novel and explores the fluid relationship between a reader and the characters she is reading. What happens if you you fall into your book? A JUICE BOX AFTERNOON is a romantic and violent dream filled with stylized dance and pop-mash-up lullabies, that tells the story of Anne Morrow Lindbergh through her own writing as she comes of age, meets Charles Lindbergh, and experiences flight in more ways than one.

Through You (2017)
This athletically vibrant and sensual experience explores love across a lifetime. Using dance to inhabit a common mortal story of love born, lived, lost, burned, and seemingly gone forever, THROUGH YOU is a live-action VR richly infused with an atmosphere of passion. Dancers Joanna Kotze and Marni Thomas Wood, along with actor Amari Cheatom, take us through the coursing periods of time, from the 1970s to 2046 and beyond, where the question is harbored, “Can love be found again?

Work on Me (2011)
A love that transports through time and place. Inspired by iconic NYC love scenes from the 1970's, and an ode to Maya Deren's MESHES OF THE AFTERNOON. This meticulous craft of cutting-on-action proposes a dance as if it were literally occurring in front of you, like a live performance.

Quick Slice (2022)
A crew of strangers converge over a quick slice inside a NYC pizza shop - a casual community hub. When a “contaigent” enters, dance turns inconsequential moments into idiosyncratic gestures, toggling between task and Bob Fosse-inspired choreography. Subtle and disorientating editing crafts an intimate dream between strangers.

BFF (2015)
A blurry kind of intimacy between friends, self, lens, and everyone else watching.

Misty Copeland (2015)
Misty Copeland was promoted to principal dancer at American Ballet Theatre in 2015, becoming the first Black American ballerina to do so in the elite classical company's 75-year history. Misty sheds light on beating all odds through a difficult upbringing and learning ballet at 13 years old. She also expresses the importance of giving back to the communities she hopes to inspire. Friends and colleagues also share their admiration for the prominent dancer and advocate.

Secret Room (2012)
A story told with gestures and glances. The tightness of a car is a perfect space for fantasy. Here two lovers' separate fantasies, “secret rooms” abut.

It's a Soiree (2011)
Seen through the voyeurism of glass pane, this is the story of 1960's coiffed etiquette gone awry. Dancing bodies reveal a meaty subtext as all protocol gets unhinged.

Terrain (2020)
This docu-dream is a story without words using the language of movement. Through a vivid and surreal landscape, each person encounters a series of distinct individuals and slowly rediscovers a larger collective body. Terrain is a dancing unison of difference. Our bodies bridge gaps between worlds, and with this we invent a new kind of non-verbal truth. This new interconnectedness propels us back to life again, essentialized by our shared sense of interbeing.
