Otino Corsano's "NORTH YORK" 2013
Working alongside commercial directors, professional actors, contemporary dancers and composers,
new genre artist and Willowdale resident Otino Corsano has created a trilogy of art videos collectively titled “North York”, 2013.
This collection of thirty-second ‘commercials’ depicts the lifestyle of living in the City of Toronto’s
most northern edge as a contemporary Arcadia.
North York Video 1 “Optimus”:
Directing duo Jeff Hamill (editor) and Maddie Goodall (cinematographer) build an optimistic and
future perspective from familiar local construction sites and unique roof top views.

North York Video 2 “Betty Ann Bush”:
Contemporary choreographer and director Aria Evans collaborates with actress Linnea Currie-Roberts
to link everyday domestic gestures with the reverie of unaltered forest space using dance as a bridge.

North York Video 3 “Lansing”:
Westside Studio photographer/director Nikki Ormerod and dancer Emma Letki visit North York’s postmodern and thriving Yonge Street centre, delineating urban developments into new choreographed movements
and returns to poignantly preserved civic parklands.
