Lauren Page Video Artist Statement

I’m Lauren Page and I’m a Stamps Senior interested in digital art in the sports field.

The Michigan Dance Team Nationals 2020 Mini-Documentary captures the raw emotions and behind the scenes moments that go into the culmination of a year’s worth of hard work competed in one weekend.

I originally made this video for a class project, displaying my team's journey and showing viewers how much heart and passion goes into this lesser-known sport.

However, this works meaning has significantly morphed in the time of Covid-19. The fate of the University of Michigan Dance Team attending 2021 Nationals is currently unknown, and this event may never be the same for many years.

It is important now more than ever to document how things were, showing the excitement and optimism nationals holds in the hopes we can someday return.
