Choreography/Improvisation

We explored choreography and improvisation today. Improvisation is when you do movements that you haven't thought of and it just comes to mind. The music was playing in the background while we were given instruction on what to do, e.g we imagined we had a ball and we rolled it around the body, then we dipped a body part in paint and then had to draw everywhere in the room with that body part and paint. This warmed the body up and loosened the muscles up which will then be easier for other movements.


We got "Mary Berry" recipe which we went through and highlighted the words that are most like "doing words". We had to chose 10 over all, I chose:- Pushing, Melted, Stand, Shape, Roll, Spread, Dust, Stir, Turn out and Sifted. I used this to make a motif, I then developed my motif by using choreographic devices, I chose to use:
Staging- To change the direction in which you perform.
Repetition- Repeat a phrase
Additive/Incorporative- Turning the movement into things like, running, jumping or sliding.


We then performed the movement I think I managed to create and develop it well but next I should challenge myself and take more risks.
