We’re starting a guild! PLEASE READ this amazing @nytimes article to understand why. #choreographersguild #nytimes *link in bio “Despite their influence, choreographers have been persistently and often bafflingly sidelined. In the more traditional worlds of film, television and music videos, there is little standardization in choreographer pay or crediting, and choreographers are often forced to sign away the rights to their work. In the wilder wilds of YouTube and TikTok, where choreography is frequently built to go viral, questions of crediting and compensation for dance creators have become especially complicated and urgent.” – @margaretfuhrer (thank you)

🪄 ✨🌈 🦋 I can say from first hand experience that Dolly Parton is indeed magic because I CHOREOGRAPHED AND AM IN A MOVIE MUSICAL WITH HER! (All caps is me screaming, what is life?!) I’m still in shock even tho we spent a month in Dollywood making this. Definitely sharing more about the project and team soon, but go ahead and set those recording devices for Thursday, December 1, 2022, at 8 p.m. ET/PT On NBC. ❄️☃️🎄#katburnschoreo #dollyparton

In honor of #internationalchoreographersday here’s a sneak peak of my new reel that’s coming soon… Edited by @slross Introduction & kind words by @nopenother @lindsleyallen @vellalovell @racheldoesstuff (I swear I didn’t pay them to say that)
Loved helping Amanda Seyfried @mingey find her inner angsty Elizabeth Holmes grooves…or lack there of. @thedropouthulu #danceDNA #thedropout #katburnschoreo
Most known for her work on the musical comedy series “Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,” choreographer Kathryn Burns’ (@katmburns) TV credits include “Key & Peele,” “The Morning Show,” “The Simpsons,” “The Afterparty,” @DancingWithTheStars and many more—plus music videos, movies and stage productions, including the recent new musical A Wicked Soul in Cherry Hill, at the @GeffenPlayhouse. While Burns’ resumé tells the story of an extensive choreographic career, you don’t always know you’re watching her work when you see it. That’s because choreographers working in television and movies often don’t receive appropriate credit—not to mention proper protection and payment—as they are usually the only non-unionized creative leads on set. Burns is working to change that as president of the @ChoreographersGuild, which she recently launched with a group of industry choreographers.✨ Head over to the link in our bio to read more on the driving force behind the movement, the journey thus far, goals for the Guild and more.
