Budget

yaoraocai3 — 2025-03-09 09:57:32 UTC

This budget includes my plan of working in London as a freelance artist, having income from working in dance projects, teaching dance classes and doing hospitality job as well as paying for my visa and holiday back home in December. The extra expenses will be covered by my savings. As I won’t be able to work until I graduate, which affected on my total expense this year will be more than my total income.

This is a general showreel that shows my versatility in different dance styles. It is a go to one when there is no specific requirement.

This is a cover email that response to a call out of Autin Dance Theatre looking for an East Asian female-identifying contemporary dancer.

And here is the description of the requirement:

_{You must be an exceptional versatile movement performer and comfortable with character work and audience interaction/play. Applicants should demonstrate at least 3 years of professional experience, strong dance theatre technique, partner work, improvisational and devising skills. Experience in contact work and hand to hand is preferable but not compulsory. Team players with a sense of humour also welcome!
We are particularly keen to hear from individuals that are based in the West Midlands to join the Company for rehearsals, live performances on tour this summer and the delivery of creative outreach workshops in formal education settings and the community.}

This work plan is viewing myself as a freelance artist and how I navigate my dance career and living in London which includes my goals in dance and focus in life during different periods of time as well as my visa situation of the possibility for applying Global Talent Visa.
