Introduction to choreographic principles

Choreography is a dance, movement or routine 

My first assignment is to create/ choreograph your own duo to perform in the first showcase 11th December 2013

No copyright can be made!!!! 

I can use influences from other professionals dance, yet not copy it. 

My partner is Elliotte I'm feeling pretty positive about my choice of partnership due to with both of us we could engage in a majority of styles for our choreograph 

Our stimuli is Era's of dance/ decades 

Therefore now I have my starting point I will now needs to research different dance styles throughout the era's aswell as music for the performance. 

Plan ; 

Starting point is the stimuli which I have , this will now give myself direction and ideas on inspirations connected with the stimuli

2) forms : 

 Lyrical 

Pictures 

Objects 

Themes 

Books 

character

Current affairs

Sculptures

Ideas; Michael Jackson moves -pose

Elvis Presley - hips 

Timeline of different styles and era's , by researching into these I will then be able to see which styles I like and could develop, I will then be aware of the era, and could go into further development like researching clothing , famous people in this era, aswell as the music listened to during the time formation.

This is a draft of the timeline ;  

Some styles that was discussed in class were ; 

Disco 1970's 

Musicals - grass 1950's - 60's 

Boy bands 90's ( comedy)
