Innovative Dance Marketing
Cedar Lake Contemporary Ballet, an NYC-based company, has been sending me newsletters and performance notices since I first found found out about them a couple years back. In the last few installments, however, the company has stepped up its efforts with its innovative and interactive marketing techniques.
Teachers, studio owners, competition directors, and artist directors take note: Technological advances in dance not only catch the attention of the media, but also make dance a much more relatable medium. As dance makers struggle to find ways to reach out to wider audiences, they may find comfort in the new accessibility of the digital dance realm.
Cedar Lake's e-newsletter features 21st century capabilities, such as an embedded video of a work-in-progress for an upcoming performance. Check out French choreographer Angelin Preljocaj resetting his work "L' Annonciation" for the company's spring season:

The newsletter also touts the opening performance of the company's newest installment, "Glassy Elegance," which opens on April 24th in New York, by promoting USB drive giveaways that will feature live video footage of the premiere. Seems like USB drives are primed to replace DVDs as the leading dance recording device!
