         <title>Initial idea: </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>- Our initial idea was to show the evolution of homo sapiens and show the progression of life. However, after discussing it more in depth and tried out some filming for it, we struggled to portray this initial idea in the correct way. After brainstorming and coming up with ideas as a group, Tom brought up the art work he had seen around London, which is what inspired our concept video; ‘Art in Motion’. We wanted to use the different variety of dance styles we had; as we are all in different pathways, we thought we could portray that in our filming style. While covering 3 out of 4 pathways (Musical Theatre, Jazz and Contemporary) we could show the difference in art work around London and how that influenced us as individuals. </p><p>- I particularly liked how subjective this idea was as not everyone will interpret a piece of artwork the same way. This made it very interesting when looking for art pieces to dance in front of, as well as what everyone thought the appropriate choreography was for each piece of artwork. This is what made our roles so important, as it would’ve been very crowded if everyone was trying to get their point of view of what they thought worked for each section. However, the fact that we are all so individual, we were able to get inspired by one another and that’s what made our concept video even stronger.</p>]]></description>

         <title>Inspiration: </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>- We wanted to create a music video vibe and create transitions between the filmed choreography so that when Carlie went to edit, it would look like a continuous shot. We were inspired by the filming of ‘Back on 74’ by Jungle , which is a music video that does not stop and the camera work captures dancers at different times with transitions in between. This however, was not possible for us as we had different art work that had to be filmed in different areas and therefore we resulted in using transitions between choreography. The one shot idea worked particularly well when we filmed in the studio to show the difference in styles for the Tate Modern artwork.</p><p>- The inspiration for dancing in front of the graffiti art was taken from the video ‘Bombin’ a 1987 documentary on YouTube ( <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEbh97UbIgM&amp;t=263s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEbh97UbIgM&amp;t=263s</a> ). This inspired us to use the graffiti walls in the first place and the rest came when we were there. We thought the graffiti walls would bring more inspiration to us as dancers as we are all quite hip hop and commercially inclined; compared to using something softer and more neutral which we think would’ve probably brought out a more lyrical and contemporary style.</p>]]></description>

         <title>My role: </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>- I found choreographing bits of the dance when I was in the studio pretty challenging as I didn’t have the artwork to be inspired by. As I realised I wasn’t going to come up with any choreography in an empty white studio, I thought a smarter idea was to wait until we went into central and let the inspiration come when we saw a piece of art we liked.</p><p>- As the music we decided to use had no lyrics, it made it a little bit more difficult for us to choreograph to it, especially the hip hop bits I choreographed with Tom. The song was very repetitive and each movement had to be unique to each of the art pieces. </p><p>- This made it challenging as we had to take more time when we were in central as part of the dances had to be done when we did find a piece of art work and choreograph on the spot. That also meant changing things on the spot whether they worked, and looking back at the filming footage to see if the dance matched the art work, as well as checking the filming perspective. </p><p>- A thing I did to make this easier was having dance moves I knew I wanted to incorporate to the music video. This made it easier to work with as the basic parts were done and we just had to incorporate linking steps that portray the art work behind us. </p><p>- As this was a concept video, I was inspired by the music videos dance formations and therefore used a variety of change within the dancers. I especially liked the way our trio (Teo, Maisy and Liv) looked on camera as we used formation changes within the dance; one person in front and two people off their shoulder made the choreography match the aspect of a dance video. </p><p>- Another formation that worked particularly well was the formation on the stairs, as the use of levels and mirroring of the choreography made the concept video look different. When we found graffiti that wasn't too crowded in the background we decided that that was the moment we could focus more on making the formations interesting, as it wouldn't have taken away from the piece of artwork. </p>]]></description>

         <title>Inspired by music: </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>- When it came to music, we wanted to find a song that allowed us to have contrasting aspects in it. A slower more contemporary side as well as upbeat parts of the song which would be paired up with the graffiti walls around Waterloo and Shoreditch. Maisy took the lead on music and came up with a song by Justing Timberlake, however after playing around with some dance styles in the studio we realised it worked well for the hip hop style but not so much for the others. This lead me to coming up with the song ‘People Watching’ by Conan Gray, which happened to be the opposite. </p><p>- After searching for some more songs, I found the song ‘Omen’ by Sam Smith and Disclosure, which to my surprise had a good mixture between slow bits and more uptempo beats. I searched up a karaoke version as we didn’t want the lyrics to influence our movement and therefore that was the song we decided to use for our concept video.</p>]]></description>

         <title>Roles within the group: </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>- Each person had a certain role. This was assigned at the beginning of the project as it would give each person a job and decrease chances of people stepping on each others toes making the project easier to collaborate. </p><p>- Teo: choreographer and producer. Using the videos that inspired us in the first place, I used them to choreograph sections with Tom. I also helped Carlie with what angles worked for each of the sections as I wanted certain parts of the choreography to be highlighted and assisted Carlie for the end of each section to work with her transitions. </p><p>- Tom: choreographer. We decided to assign two people on choreography as we need different ideas that would contrast with the art work and one person would either run out of ideas or the ideas would be too similar in-between each other. This was good as Tom and I assisted each other and made the choreography stronger. </p><p>- Liv: costume and make up. She decided to go with a neutral grey and black tones as it wouldn’t disrupt with the art work behind us, therefore making it quite easy to focus on the dance moves and take away from the main focus of the music video. </p><p>- Carlie: videographer and editor. She used the videos we were influenced by to use the camera and angles she filmed at look interesting. She then went home and edited the dance videos we took to all match the music and make the transitions as flawless as possible. She was a massive asset to our group and bringing all her filming equipment into central as well as editing this video, she was always on top of things and made sure to try all of our ideas to make sure we have multiple clips to choose from. </p><p>- Maisy: music. As we used the full song, there wasn’t much editing that needed to be done by Maisy, but she helped me out when finding the songs and made the definite decision in the song we used. She also stepped up when we needed a decision to be made, as well as, taking over the role of the director when they weren’t there. </p><p>- Ellie: director.</p>]]></description>

         <title>Issues we faced: </title>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>- Our director missed a full day of filming and this meant that all of us had to step up. This was because her role was quite significant in the decision making process. This lead to a little discrepancy between the people that were there as we were all trying to give our ideas of what we thought would work better. </p><p>- Another issue we faced, was the fact we weren’t allowed to film in the Tate modern gallery. We resolved this by taking photos of the art and using Carlie’s editing skills; we filmed the choreography that inspired us as individuals in the studio and adding the art work next to it in our concept video.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>- On our last filming day we met John K. He's a dancer and he was making Tik Toks as we were filming our project. That's when we realised that our concept video is how art inspires people differently, so we kindly asked him to join our video. We told him about our concept video and thought that his input would be a great addition to it. </p><p>- This showed that everyones idea of what the art represents is so different and unique to each individual and we were very excited that we got to get such a different sort of dancer in our concept video. </p><p><br/></p>]]></description>
