We didn’t choose daily routine because we realised it would be too long to complete the video, we thought of too many instruments and we weren’t able to generalize the actions we do every day.
- Sports 
We didn’t choose the sports theme because the only instruments we found for this themes are balls, we found some other instruments but it might as well damage the materials, for example we could of made some sound with rackets but it could of damaged them. And they are most sport equipment are made out of the same material so it might create the same sound.
- Lunch 
For lunch the only materials we are able to use are utensils and bowls/plates and etc. We don’t have a wide variety of instruments to use. Even if we manage to use bowls and utensils, all the sounds produce will be similar because of the material the bowls and utensils are made of are all the same. 
- Cleaning 
We chose cleaning because we are able to use a wider variety of instruments than the rest of the themes we thought of. We can produce more sounds with a wider choice of instruments. It not only gives us the opportunity to create more sounds, it is also a easier create sounds with cleaning materials.

The other parts were good so we still decided to use this as reference for our main piece.]]> 2016-09-07 01:18:38 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121980059 Improv Piece 3 (Sept 6) tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121980116 - We were in time 90% of the time during this beat. It was simple but still sounded very good when put together. ]]> 2016-09-07 01:19:04 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121980116 September 6th tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121980613 Goal: The main focus for this class is to improvise and record some beats to use as reference for our first few bars of our Stomp piece.

Lesson: The more complicated the beats the messier the final product will be. When putting complicated piece together, we can't hear the beats well instead all we hear is constant clapping. So the simpler the beats, the better it will sound when put together]]> 2016-09-07 01:22:27 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121980613 Story Line: tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121983680 A group of workers walks into work to the presence of their unreasonable boss. The boss told them to go clean the his home . After cleaning for a while, the workers got tired and bored and one worker throws their towel creating the first beat. Another worker then starts tapping on the stairwell. Using the single beat on the stairwell, the other workers will join in one at a time creating the first bar.  ]]> 2016-09-07 01:44:14 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121983680 September 7th tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/121985160 Goal: To try and create more complex beats for us to use as reference in the final piece. If we create a good sounding beat, we will use it for the main piece for stomp.

Lesson: One bar should be short and simple allowing us to have a larger variety of beat to create different sounds which will make the Stomp piece to be better.

Lesson: Creating a bar of beats isn't as easy as we think. It takes time to test it out and to see if all the beat sounds good together. We can't have one really strong beat while the other are not as strong because it will just drown out the the other beats.]]> 2016-09-13 01:46:07 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/123322729 September 14th tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124056950 Goal: To perform to the class and receive feedbacks and take the feedback into consideration to make our Stomp Piece better.

Lesson: Getting everything in time and correct is hard. If one person speeds up everything becomes out of time and if one person forget their part, it's hard to continue off of the mistake. Also be organize and bring all material needed and don't forget.]]> 2016-09-15 13:51:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124056950 Performance Part 1 tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124065055 (Sept 14th)]]> 2016-09-15 14:09:40 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124065055 Performance Part 2  tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124066676 (Sept 14th)]]> 2016-09-15 14:13:20 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124066676 Feedback Jenny tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124069639 (Sept 14th)]]> 2016-09-15 14:21:06 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124069639 Feedback Kelly  tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124070090 (Sept 14th)]]> 2016-09-15 14:22:12 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124070090 Performance Reflection (Sept 14th) tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124101278 Reflection: Our performance wasn't polish and it wasn't perfect. There are room for improvements. In certain parts we were not in time because someone either sped up or slowed down. Hugo, who was suppose to signal a stop with a grunt forgot to do signal it which led us to be confused and had to start the second verse without a stop. Starting it without a stop was hard for Warakorn because Hugo's beat was fast and she couldn't start again in time with Hugo.

Lesson: When we perform, we need to know our parts well and try not to forget our beats and what we have to do at certain times because if we don't, it can lead to confusion and people going off beat.]]> 2016-09-15 15:35:44 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124101278 Feedback Response (Sept 14th) tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124103557 Jenny: Due to lack of organization, we forgot our materials for that day. Forgetting our materials means that we only had the drumstick to use. Since we were only tapping on the staircase, the sound that the beat created were all the same causing the beat to drown each other out. There will be much more of a variety and texture once we perform with our actual materials such as plastic bottles, towels, brooms and buckets.

Kelly: In the middle, the section split, Hugo was suppose to signal a stop with a grunt but because we forgot and kept playing, we got confuse. Hugo's beat is also so fast that Warakorn couldn't make out when to join in for it to perfectly match the beat. Once we film the final product, we will make sure that Hugo signal a stop when it's the section split.

We decided to use the buckets and just lay out our story line. We were throwing buckets down the stairs and catching it to create a cool transition into our next scene. After we learned how to transition with the buckets, we decided to go back to the practice room and continued with our beats. We went through all the sections that we had to see what it would sound like.

Lesson: Even if there's something affecting our practice time, we still need to do something productive for us to be able to move forward with our assessment and not fall behind. ]]> 2016-09-16 06:35:26 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124255257 Performance Reflection (Sept 19th) tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124255429 Reflection: Transition is our main focus for this class. We discussed and actually tested out the transition which we thought was best for each part of the performance. We tested out how we are going to start our performance and made changes such as the actions that we are doing and how we get ready for the first bar. We also created our music sheet and labeled the parts which indicates when someone is going or what they will use. ]]> 2016-09-16 06:36:41 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/124255429 Performance Reflection (Sept 28) Final Performance tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/126959111 Final Performance Reflection: For our final performance I thought we did very well. Our transitions wasn't choppy and flowed well. Some of the transition didn't exactly match and flow smoothly but how we went from one part to another wasn't choppy and we didn't forget our parts. We were in beat as well and we didn't speed up and get out of beat. Everything sounded very nice together and it wasn't confusing. All sounds were well heard and nothing drowned out another part.]]> 2016-09-28 13:48:20 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/126959111 Music Sheet 1 (Sept 19th) tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/126972078 2016-09-28 14:16:45 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/126972078 Music Sheet 2 (Sept 19th) tracyng2002 https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/126972486 This is our finalized music notation sheet. ]]> 2016-09-28 14:17:37 UTC https://padlet.com/tracyng2002/tjbhud36o9zd/wish/126972486
