Here's one I made with the Tomorrow Collective, a dance group in Vancouver. Music came from Opsound, an open-source audio library.

Bravo!FACT funds a heck of a lot of Canadian dance films, and many of them are online:

These are often more like dances on film than experimental films with dance in them... the experimental cinematic elements seem like music-video eye candy for the most part, meant to make the dance more exciting on the small screen when the visceral presence of the live stage is removed.

Nevertheless, choreography changes a lot when you can direct the eye to small details with the lens...
