DIGITAL FEIS - APRIL 2020
A great option for Irish dancers at home!
April Digital Feis will be popular with so many Irish dancers at home. If you haven't yet tried Digital Feis, this is a great opportunity and something positive to keep Irish dancers motivated and focused while we're not at the studio. For April 2020 Digital Feis, dancers may send videos in from home!
- Recreational levels from Beginner - Advanced and Adult
- Competitive from Bunghrád to Craobhghrád
This is a great opportunity for written adjudicator feedback for solo dances, set dances, and treble reels. Entries are likely to be high in most age categories which increases opportunity for CRN qualifying "move ups"

Deadline for registration - Friday, April 3rd, 2020
- Registration is done through the Student Portal
WHICH LEVEL, WHICH DANCES?
Digital Feis only permits dancers compete in 1 level, however don't let this stop you from competing with all of your current dances. Digital Feis does not follow CRN repertoire so in many cases dances from other CRN level can be used for Digital Feis competitions. If you're uncertain of which dances are best, please don't hesitate to email info@mcconnelldancers.com
VIDEO SUBMISSION
Due to physical distancing, we are unable to video tape dancers at the studio, however dancers can video tape their dances at home and send them to us for submission.
Deadline for Video Submission - Sunday, April 5th
Videos can be sent via Dropbox, Google Drive, or emailed to info@mcconnelldancers.com
Video Taping Recommendations
- Submit your 1 best video for each dance you are competing with. Please do not submit multiple versions of the same dance.
- Please include the 8 bar music introduction in your video.
- Record horizontally. Please do not take vertical video or switch between vertical and horizontal in the middle of the dance.
- The cameraperson or tripod should stand in for the judge. Dancers should face this position when lining up as they would at a feis. If you have to video tape yourself, it's fine, just trim the video to the shortest length possible.
- Adjudicators must be able to hear the music and hardshoes. While silent film would be an interesting artistic choice, it makes timing difficult to judge!
DIGITAL FEIS INFORMATION
Digital Feis is an on-line organisation offering dancers the opportunity to compete and advance levels without the burden of travel. Videos are submitted by the school and dancers register for private video taping sessions where solo dances are rehearsed, taped, and submitted for adjudication. Digital Feis provides feedback, placement, and medals to competing dancers and all results count towards their CRN Levels or just for fun!
Digital Feis is open to all dancers, in Recreational, Competitive, and Performance Divisions.
