Dance 20/10/15


In this we lesson we started with a warm up for safety reasons. We then ran through the dance just to give everyone a little recap. After this we changed around the routine so that it had a more fluent composition this impacted my character within the dance as I had to change my transitions around so that I could get to each section without running into anybody else. After this we had to teach the main phrase to Jordy as he didn’t know it, we thought it was a good idea for everyone to know the phrase because then it adds whole cast unison which is an effective technique to use within dance choreography. Also one of our key words that links with our theme is unity therefore this represents that key aspect.
Next we continued changing elements of the dance so that we could add more dynamics within the piece so that it linked with our themes of gangs more also toad to our characterization, I think that using dynamics works really well within a dance as not only does it make it more interesting but helps dancers within the piece to use the certain dynamics to portray emotions their character may be feeling in that moment, e.g.: a heavy stamp could be used to show anger.
We then performed to a small audience so that we could practice for the show as well as help us focus on our characterization to make it more of a performance.


Targets: I need to improve the dynamics in my solo section to do this I will go through it and decide what kind of emotions/dynamics I want to show and practice by next lesson, also to know the whole dance off by heart to achieve this I will practice it at home before next lesson.
