Physical TV: Dance Film
(PhysicalTV YouTube Channel)
 The Physical TV Company is Australia's premier company for the production and distribution of dance film, screendance, video dance, or dance for the camera, as well as being a leading provider of innovative choreography for music videos, musicals, new and transmedia projects. Artistic Directors Richard James Allen and Karen Pearlman make "stories told by the body". Their award-winning shorts, feature films and new media projects combine the finest filmmakers, crews and production values with dance, dancers and ideas about making moving pictures that move. Bringing together the spiritual, physical and technological, thought-provoking, engaging and rich in rhythms and images, Physical TV's award-winning physical films regularly screen nationally and internationally at film festivals and on television, and can be viewed on The Physical TV Channel on YouTube.
Karen and Richard are also well known as writers, Karen for her film theory and criticism, Richard for his poetry.
"Over the years Richard and his Physical TV Company have shown true passion, creativity and innovation in the field of dance and media through consistently pushing the boundaries and producing intriguing, beautiful and high-quality pieces.” Sabine Klaus, Creation Editor
"Their choreography has predominantly been an exploration of the human condition using the medium of film and video. The content is often playful and light-hearted, but by no means lightweight, and is always delivered with enormous passion and conviction." Chrissie Parrott, dancewest magazine.
