Today in our group piece we continued with developing movements and motifs for the end section of our dance. This when Rob and Opal are trying to save and grab onto eachother but Rob is taken away by the strong waves.
We watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3XfIx0i9pk this as people getting taken away by a Tsmani. We then rebuilt the story of this and this was by having partner work and then Rob jumping onto the floor and pushing himself towards Opal to try and grab onto her,meanwhile Opal is on the box (ontop of a car) and then does small gestures when there is a voice over in the music explaining the story of what has happened on this very day of the family holiday.

Today we set goals to achieve in our groups. My group goals were to develop the house section and change patterns and moves that don't work and to build on a climax.
We firstly started of with going over the routine with the final music still responding to the stimuli of "Elements" (Tsunami ) with the picture of people being trapped on cars and in buildings and creating the story of the real live event that happened.
We then developed the house section and changed some moves and used more choreographic devices to make the piece more interesting this was by using unison and cannon and different levels. We the created more of a story by researching more on how people reacted towards getting dragged out by the Tsunami and how much of a panic they really were in. We used rolling travelling and jumping for this section of the dance when we are all panicking and getting taken away by the wave.
We then used contact work for when we are getting taken by the waves this was by a small hug and a pull on the leg from Honor and Opal meanwhile while Rob is trying to save us all.
Me and Honor then get taken away by the Tsnami and Rob and Opal are the only ones that survive until Rob can no longer hold onto the tree.
Meanwhile Opal is panicking and trying to save all of us I then get taken away by the Tsnami and Opal is all alone,there is a over speech in the music at the end explain what has happened. Meanwhile why Opal is trying to save Rob. Me and Honor are in the back ground waving up and down like we are breathing.

Our action plan for next lesson is to clean the sections up and create a new tableau for the start of our routine for when we are at the beach and spot the Tsunami coming towards us.

Today we spoke about our group and individual biography's. I had improvements to make on my individual biography and this was just by explaining more of what I have done and what I have taken part in and if i wish to stay onto next year for my 3rd year. Our group biograpthy just needed changing about the family characters as mum and dad parents of two and twins.
We then worked on our group choregrapthy for the rest of the lesson we had, we worked on the structure of the dance and this was by a narrative ABC telling a story of a real life event what happened in 2004 in Thailand. We then worked on facial expressions and feelings of how we would feel if we were actually in that situation and then recapped over what we had already done. We then continued to build a climax to our piece and this would be the B section and this is by Honor and me getting taken away by the waves.
We are still using the image to respond to the stimuli and this is by using the black blocks at the start of our routine for when the Tsunami comes towards us and we are panicking .
We then used this image for the feelings of panicking and how everyone would be feeling at that time. We used dynamics (force) how we would pull each other to help each other up and out of the Tsunami and how we would feel when we all were safe by using speed - slow as a relief of everyone there.

Today in class we spoke about our choreographic principles blog and how we could improve and what we could improve on. We work in our groups that we are working in for the show in June. We looked at each other's blogs and gave individual feed back to one another.
We then had to indemnify strengths and weaknesses for our own blogs
STRENGTHS
We then had to indemnify strengths and weaknesses for our own blogs
STRENGTHS
- All up to date
- Know what I'm talking about
- Cover the main points.
WEAKNESS
- Don't bullet point as much
- Try not to repeat myself to much
- More research to be done
What do we individually think what we could improve on?
- Explain more what is happening when I upload a photo
- Use more technical language
Pick one strong blog and explain why it is "good" in your option?
My group pick my blog and gave me the reasons why my blog is the strongest in our group and why they think it was good. The feedback I had was that my blog is always up to date. I always answer the questions that are set in class and explain using some technical language and it responds to the stimuli and that its interesting to look at.
How does it link to the criteria?
By using technical language and explaining what is being done in class time.
List of areas to discuss in blogs?
- Write an action plan of what the group is going to do next
- work within a team and give eachother feedback all the time
