We did a workshop in preparation to our audition.
In this clip we worked steps creating movement with contact work.
We worked in pairs and was told to pick a body part to press on our partners e.g arm, leg, shoulders etc.
I worked with Zeba, we took turns and picked 5 places each creating that pattern. It was an straight forward task.
After we had picked five places of the body, we now had to make it into a connection between our partner, that being said we need to perform on movement then the other person will perform another of theirs. This way we are building connection between yourself and the moments are forming into a story.
lastly, we add 5 single dialogues between our pairs.

In this video me and Zeba showed our contact work. we used dialog and some different element of high and low. we also made use of eye contact. Although the use of the space we used was minimum.

This was my first initial ideal of my spoken word piece.
I started with a cartwheel in translation to the dialogue "surrounded by people". I then used the floor to create movements and different element while standing.
Towards the end i used impact movements to create a transition that flowed to the next sequence.
although , the was lack of consistency at the beginning, also the moments are not defined. This are the things i need to work on next week.

For this week i decided to start afresh, am starting a new movement that's clear to understand. And also i want the movements to be meaningful.
instead of starting my movement with a cartwheel , i started by using ballet technique in a second position while resting my hands and my cheek, in translation to the starting of my performance " am not the only kid who grew up this way" i had to create loneliness and make it not obvious

This is my last reflection before my audition piece.
I wanted to create and ending to my piece which means performing a 2 minutes piece, however i was struggling to come up with the end piece, as you can see the end doesn't look presentable, so i just stuck to were it ended last week i felt it was suitable to stop there.
Although, i have made a conclusion to were it end , i still need to sharpen my movements, like the part were i needed to seat on the chair, i need to make sure that doesn't happen on my audition.
Also, i have changed the movement from swinging my legs to a jump and turn were it says "we will never meet someone who will make use feel like the sun"
What i need to focus on now is making sure i the dance has clarity and understanding.
Addtionally, i will be using a white studio light that which Chiamaa will be using to perform her piece. I want to use the light because it enhances my piece and it put me in a place were every thing around ,me is dark and that light is what i strive for, to be happy. The piece is about bullying and what everyone that is ,being bully wants is for it to stop so everything will be back to normal. That's why i will be using the lights.
