My solo dance-final


In my dance rehearsals I have been practicing the final version of my solo dance. The strengths of my solo dance is the use of motif development on the floor(in my floor work sequence). I used the choreographic devices such as changing the dynamics of one of my motifs. This included creating a barrier of using my arms to reach towards the ceilings as there is a certain stopping point of when I try to reach towards achieving freedom.Another aspect that I need to improve on for my solo dance is the intention and intensity of the dance(making the dance more dramatic such as using more quality of the dynamics sharp when I finished my floor work) to make it more abrupt and sudden. Getting ready for the climax of the dance when I have to increase my intensity of the movement and intention of the theme entrapment and what it is suggesting towards the whole audience. This can be presented as a gradual build up of intention emphasising each of the movements(i.e. my floor work sequence to be emphasise with the gestural movements/motif of reaching out for freedom and escape from society. Making the dance more dramatic will show more of my theme through one of the stimulus of the music. The song, we disappear by John Hopkins is one of my stimulus that is used to represent how I am unable to get freedom and trapped in a small space. This rehearsal allowed to see what working in a large space would be like towards the theme of my dance. My solo dance would work better in a small space(doing my dance in a large space makes it seems as though that my piece is lost and all over the place).
