Pioneer Winter, a Miami-based choreographer and artistic director of Pioneer Winter Collective, has directed the festival since 2017, establishing it as a cornerstone for showcasing dance on screen. With an emphasis on queer visibility and community-driven performance, Winter’s curatorial work has expanded the boundaries of dance presentation in both public spaces and formal venues. Winter’s own films have been presented internationally, and in addition to curating ScreenDance Miami, he serves as an Assistant Teaching Professor at Florida International University.
