add ideas about what you could choreograph and why

06/10/14 Dance Lesson

In todays lesson we went onto a different unit choreographing a dance for a song which is either in Into The Woods, or Bugsy Malone for the year 12 shows. The choices were either The Witches Rap from Into the Woods or Down and Out from Bugsy Malone. I decided I would like to be in Down and out and be part of the choreography for that song.

Here is a clip of the song:

Once we had watched the video of Down and out from the film of Bugsy Malone we then created a mmind map with some initial ideas of what we were thinking of doing with the dance. Here is the mind map I created:

Looking at the film clip of the song we made our mind map brainstorming some ideas that come to mind. When it comes to our choreography I feel that we could incorporate the use of a metal bowl and spoon and use this as percussion with the music. Also the use of rhythmic foot patherns as well as this can emphasise the music and create a direct correlation. It is very uniform and military like with use of formations so I think that these are some good ideas and starting points to begin our choreography for the song.
