This was to help us distinguish between the female and male roles that we used throughout this section.]]> 2020-01-20 02:34:14 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/433498508 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/433501520 This video shows the developed section, including the use of male characters which we choreographed collectively. I choreographed a solo section in order to show that I was mostly effected by drugs in this way. Kenzie, Jasmine and I also choreographed the floor and chair section where we used contact, mirroring and change of levels to represent manipulation and loss of control.]]> 2020-01-20 02:51:52 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/433501520 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435430985 From watching rehearsal videos, we realised that the above motif was not effective. We therefore changed this to a floor section using repetition from previous motifs. ]]> 2020-01-23 23:26:50 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435430985 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435438784 Here we used fragmentation, ABA' and simultaneous canon to develop Mackenzie's paranoia motif.]]> 2020-01-24 00:05:18 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435438784 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435441163 2020-01-24 00:17:15 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435441163 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435441958 We collectively choreographed this ending by incorporating sections from the beginning of the choreography, reinstating the characters anxiety about what was going to happen as a result of taking drugs. To achieve this we repeated the stillness and a motif from the opening section whilst highlighting Mackenzie again, before walking off and leaving her on stage.]]> 2020-01-24 00:20:49 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435441958 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435443814 2020-01-24 00:29:43 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435443814 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435444425 2020-01-24 00:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435444425 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435446037 We developed our depression choreography, incorporating a section of call and response as well as a partner and group section, using contact to represent the character's need for help and support. ]]> 2020-01-24 00:42:01 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435446037 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435446966 We developed our opening section by adding more complicated movements and focussing on Mackenzie in order to emphasise the serious effects that drugs were going to have on her character. We incorporated change of directions and different formations, such as the circle to represent the shape of the pill. ]]> 2020-01-24 00:48:00 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435446966 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435447598 We originally each had solo sections here, however we believed that it was ineffective therefore we used contact and incorporated more of our movements from the beginning of the choreography, which represented our characters' anxiety. ]]> 2020-01-24 00:51:28 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435447598 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435448784 In our first week of rehearsals, I found the song Dreams by Nuages and suggested that we build the choreography gradually by beginning in a line and staring at the audience. We aimed to portray characters who all experienced different side effects of recreational drugs, therefore we used unison and level changes. ]]> 2020-01-24 00:56:24 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435448784 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435449362 2020-01-24 00:58:03 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435449362 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435449480 2020-01-24 00:58:32 UTC https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435449480 saffron_baillie https://padlet.com/saffron_baillie/1ugb0zi39mcc/wish/435456625 Christen Olesen's choreography inspired me when choreographing my section of the piece, as I felt that her femininity and use of lines would be effective in our sensual section. From this video, we decided that the instrumental version of Girl by The Internet would match the tone of the piece.

Despite not being in heels, we incorporated lines and shapes similar to ones evident in the below videos throughout.

Ainsley Ricketts is renowned for his emotional routines, therefore we attempted to implement this within our choreography, contrast slow minimalistic movement with fast, sharp arms.
