This is something that I was trying to achieve with my piece. ]]> 2023-04-25 12:48:12 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567186442 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567188794 Further research into Liz Aggiss and how she uses the camera within her screendances. ]]> 2023-04-25 12:49:45 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567188794 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567200320 This article contains a small paragraph explaining the use of the camera and why they filmed it this way. ]]> 2023-04-25 12:58:06 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567200320 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567213230 During this week, I delved into my research on Trisha Brown. I used the Lotus Cube in my CP1 and knew I wanted to use it again as I really enjoyed using it in my previous choreography and it gave me a beginning point to help me choreograph. ]]> 2023-04-25 13:06:46 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567213230 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567221195 This is Trisha Brown's choreography, Newark, which I used in my CP1 and continue to use in my CP2. ]]> 2023-04-25 13:11:54 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567221195 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567225712 This is Trisha Brown's Set and Reset choreography which is where I took inspiration for my Screendance from.

I decided to change the location, which choreography from Trisha Brown I was going to use, and also to take inspiration from Liz Aggiss. ]]> 2023-04-25 13:18:35 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567233318 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567238802 2023-04-25 13:22:17 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567238802 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567253511 Trisha Brown talking about her piece Newark]]> 2023-04-25 13:31:46 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567253511 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567271415 I began rehearsing my piece with the camera in the studio, to decide on the camera angles I wanted to incorporate in my Screendance and which ones I didn't. It also gave me a chance to see which angles would work and which didn't, that I had planned to use. ]]> 2023-04-25 13:43:12 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567271415 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567312662 2023-04-25 14:07:58 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567312662 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567318930 2023-04-25 14:12:03 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567318930 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567324884 2023-04-25 14:15:51 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567324884 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567331693 2023-04-25 14:19:57 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2567331693 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568445394 In this rehearsal I decided to try filming in 005 after much consideration and being undecisive between the idea of filming outside or inside. Talia helped me with the camera angles and I decided to go for a simple lighting (which is the same as what I had for my CP1 live performance).]]> 2023-04-26 08:06:39 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568445394 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568455047 I decided to try and have someone film it for me so that it was smooth flowing and I could get the angles and perspectives I wanted. However, I found it more challenging than I thought it would be, to come up with the different transitions and the build up to them as I wanted all of my scenes to flow into each other. ]]> 2023-04-26 08:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568455047 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568482585 I decided to try the opening of my choreography on my hands to see what the concept of the idea would look like and to also add another perspective to my choreography. ]]> 2023-04-26 08:42:32 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568482585 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568506041 After changing my mind once more, I decided to film my piece for the final time, outside. I wanted to challenge myself by filming it without help. I set my tripod up and started coming up with ways I could position my camera to get the angles I want. I started off simple with my feet at the beginning and then the ideas started flowing.]]> 2023-04-26 09:03:46 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568506041 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568515688 I decided to go for neutral clothing, taking inspiration from Trisha Brown's Newark piece, as they are all wearing simple grey unitards. Going for a neutral pallet allowed the focus to stay on the choreography instead of what I was wearing. The socks however, allowed me to highlight my feet and the choreography I was performing as they look small in the vast space. ]]> 2023-04-26 09:12:04 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568515688 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568521872 I enjoyed this idea of me walking around my cubed space as it shows the audience that I am limiting myself to this space and it brings Trisha Brown's cube concept into play as well. Furthermore, it is only in this shot where the audience are allowed to see all of me and not just parts of me. ]]> 2023-04-26 09:18:00 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568521872 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568528509 I filmed my Screendance purposely in sections where only part of me is visible as I enjoy the idea of the unknown and leaving it up to the audience's imagination as to what could the other parts of the body be doing now whilst we can only see what the arm is doing. I filmed like this for all of my Screendance, changing the perspective and view of my body. ]]> 2023-04-26 09:23:56 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568528509 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568534235 Showing my point of view was a last minute decision for me as I wasn't too sure on the idea of it. However, after playing around with it and filming it from many angles to try and get the best view, I decided to keep it in my final edit of my Screendance as it adds another layer to it making it more immersive and personal. ]]> 2023-04-26 09:29:10 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568534235 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568540444 I began editing my videos together to start creating my Screendance. As I was editing I'd find myself thinking about which music I wanted to use over the videos. Did I want to use music like Trisha Brown or strip it back and use sounds like Liz Aggiss? After much debate and trial and error, I decided to use the original sounds from my filming to create a tranquil setting and really immerse myself into the true Liz Aggiss style. ]]> 2023-04-26 09:35:49 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568540444 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568582939 I decided to add an overall neutral wash to my video as it neutralises everything in the shot and allows the focus to remain on the choreography and not on the surroundings. ]]> 2023-04-26 10:19:10 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568582939 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568586113 During our reading week, I decided to take some time to reflect on my findings so far and to refilm any takes that I wasn't really sure on or knew that I could portray better. I still decided to keep it at night as I really liked the way my setting was when it was lit up with the lights at night. ]]> 2023-04-26 10:22:33 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568586113 megan03071 https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568589198 On assessment day I knew I wanted to showcase my Screendance in 005 as I wanted to incorporate this space into my piece some way. I went for low lighting to enhance the experience and to also have a small audience to keep it intimate and personal. ]]> 2023-04-26 10:25:43 UTC https://padlet.com/megan03071/isi2r2x3346lwro7/wish/2568589198
