10.01.2022 Like all arts companies, 2020 was set to be a jam-packed year for ADT. Looking back it definitely was a big year, but not at all what we had planned! Read the blog below to recap ADT's biggest moments of 2020 with us.

08.01.2022 We are thrilled to announce that two of Garry Stewart’s short films have been selected for the Adelaide Film Festival for 2020. This is will be the world premiere of ‘The Choreography of Emotions’, a film which was produced in conjunction with Jumpgate VR. The film explores the intricacies of human emotion, through bodily movement and a powerful journey with stunning video effects that recontextualise how we perceive the body. ‘The Circadian Cycle’ is also having its Australi...an cinematic Premiere at the festival. Filmed within the stunning South Australian landscape, the film uses the dancing body as a metaphor, examining morphology, biological rhythm and animal behaviour. The Circadian Cycle charts a day from sunrise to evening, moving through cycles of nature, from nascence and awakening to predation and death. Both short films are screening before a full-length feature film, find the links to more information in the comments.
