    paper The Making of The Four Journeys Documentary - Music Composer

    “The Making of The Four Journeys” is a 30‑minute documentary by Alan Domínguez that offers an intimate, behind‑the‑scenes view of the two‑year creative process for The Four Journeys, a commissioned work for Cleo Parker Robinson Dance Ensemble . Filmed through the unique challenges of the COVID‑19 pandemic, it captures rehearsals in both Denver and Mexico, with the ensemble confronting new modes of collaboration and adaptation as rehearsals shifted to Zoom and involved on‑set filming during lockdowns.

    The Making of The Four Journeys* was complemented by an original musical score produced by Lee Hogans and Shawn King, whose compositions underscore the emotional arc, from cultural discovery to resilience, mirroring the artistic evolution captured on film.”
