Anna Kempin is a passionate, out of this world contemporary freelance dancer based in Freiburg. During Corona times, Anna was having dark thoughts, because of not being able to perform. But as soon as she started searching for images and videos for me to work with, her eyes and mind were lighting up again. The trust in herself was coming back, she remembered who she is and what she has achieved; and even she can’t perform right now, she will find a way.
Before creating the website I have tried to answer questions like: who is a contemporary dancer in general, what kind of colours, feelings and shapes are associated with Anna, what information should be displayed in order to get to know and present her. Anna told me that when she rehearses and performs, the stage is mostly located in a completely dark room. So by choosing dark color theme I tried to bring the feeling of watching Anna on stage.
The most challenging and time consuming part was taking care of the vertical texts responsiveness on the homepage. I spent countless hours to ensure that the texts are not overlaping with images of Anna and that at the same time the texts are embodying the movements displayed in the images.
