Day 17 Collaborative Performance Project.

This afternoon we started with cleaning Bangarang again and also changing the positioning in some sections. We had to finish Bangarang ending and Tilly really helped us with a grooves which was actually hard and uncomfortable to do. For me it was the opposite of what I used to dance and how I used to move. At some point people couldn't catch up and gave up. We did a lot in this lesson but the ending still wasn't finished.

After a small break we came back to go over all the material we have and also to run it in the right order as it's going to be on the show. For the first I had to sing in front of my class mates and it was horrible. I didn't sing in front of people for ages and I had to get used to it again because I'm really shy and not confident. So I started to sing and straight away my voice started to tremble so after two lines of the songs I stopped because I didn't want them to hear me like that. I decided that I'll practice more and sing them once more on Thursday.

We also went through Fairies section and Bangarang once more when after Simona came to me and asked if I want to to her choreography again. I was shocked in a good way because we didn't practice it in along time and also I didn't really understand what it's going to be for so I was a little bit confused. But then She told me that she spoke with Lucy that she want to put it in the show.

So in the evening when everyone was gone we were alone in the studio doing her choreography. The music she choose is "Dirty Diana - The Weeknd". I really like this song so it inspired me to create.

At first we were a little bit lost because she also had a lot of ideas and we didn't know where and when to put them but then we just started to make the very beginning of the dance which I already knew from last term. Then she asked me if I can choreograph floor work section which is about nine lots of eight. We divided choreography into few sections: the beginning, floor work, arm section, and turning section and It made our creating process much easier.

This dance is slightly sexy, perhaps it's because the song itself is provocative. Choreography includes many styles such as: contemporary urban and hip hop and something like dancehall.

I really enjoyed working with Simona and in her style. I helped her to choreograph a lot this time especially floor work and I'm glad that we have such a good opportunity to create something just by ourselves. So eventually we did about 2 minutes of choreography which is great and the rest of it we decided to do on Thursday.
