A VIDEO ARTISTS BIO


Ms. Whitehurst is currently editing a film produced by David Lampson, beautifully shot in Argentina. She recently completed 21 short dance films with her 21Days21Dances project. She has created four dance films, two of which were selected for presentation at the DCW Film Festival, Miami Gay and Lesbian Film Festival and NYC's Dance Film Lab. She also created five narrative shorts for a UCS film program begun in 2002. Most of her projects play with physical movement and soundscape. Ms. Whitehurst's current work, titled "Question&Answer," which combines a traditional script and actors with stop-motion and other silliness, is still in production.
