Lesson 2 Notes

Lesson 2- Notes

For the first section of the lesson we talked about the appropriate preparation which was needed for our Auditions. We then went back the dance studio where we begun to rehearse and devise the different stages of war and form them in to four different lines. Our movement piece is based on the front line. So far we have decided that we are going to have a shooting sequence between three people that go forward first, then the next three join. We did this so it would create a level change as well as a split movement.

We also searched about trenches on our phones through the following websites:

Lesson 2- Extra Notes

We also came up with physical pieces whilst stood in ration line. My group consisted of Romy, Claudia, Tyler and I. We chose to show the different levels of society within ours. Romy shows the youth by leaping to the front of the line, whilst bending Claudia's back (depicting her as the elderly within the group) and then Tyler and myself show the harsh mid-generation as soldiers which send Romy to the back of the cue.
