Paul Becker: Making moves, making stories

Paul Becker is making moves. Literally. And those moves tell some great stories.

While he came up as a dancer in film and TV, it was during his time on the set of Chicago that he fell in love with choreography. Since then, Becker continues to be a sought-after choreographer for film, TV and large-scale concert stage shows. We last interviewed Becker in 2012, but so much has happened for him since then, and we wanted to hear the latest about dance, choreography, and his recent pursuit of directing and writing.

Having choreographed for over 400 TV shows and films, Becker shared some lessons from his career, as well as what it’s like to move from strictly choreography to directing. Fresh off a win from the 2021 MTV Awards for the show, Julie and the Phantoms, Becker is also directing the Netflix show, Ivy and Bean, as well as The Last of Us for HBO.
