This standard asks you to choreograph and perform an original dance that communicates a clear concept or idea. You'll need to work through the full creative process—choosing your stimulus, developing your concept, selecting movement and design choices, rehearsing, and presenting the finished piece. Your concept, choreography, and design decisions (like costumes, lighting, sound) should all work together to make your dance meaningful and engaging.
What to do, grades and common mistakes
- ·Choose a stimulus or purpose and develop a clear choreographic intention (what your dance is 'about')
- ·Research ideas, explore different movement styles and dancers, and make deliberate choices about choreography and design
- ·Create movement sequences using choreographic principles like repetition, variation, contrast, balance, and transitions
- ·Use design elements (costumes, sound, lighting, projections, performance space) to support and enhance your concept
- ·Rehearse, make refinements based on reflection and evaluation, and present your finished dance
You produce a dance with a clear concept, use basic choreographic principles like repetition and variation, and make design choices that are appropriate to your idea.
