Dance/Video Mashup
as a Choreographic Process
An MFA Movement Thesis by Molly A.E. Johnston
"The Survey"
Week Four
Video One Feedback Prompt:
The first video shows the work after digesting Bryana's feedback from 'Week Three' wherein she suggested she, "would be interested in movements which take more time because they need to take more time, rather than applying choreographed flows of time." We experimented with her suggested techniques to do so and were quite happy with the results. (Thanks, Bryana!!)
"Do you see any differences in intention? Do you have any suggestions for objects that could appear in the film or costume recommendations?"
Video Two Feedback Prompt:
This is our first draft with using the GoPro we plan to film the final screendance with. Rob, our videographer extraordinaire, hooked me up to the GoPro headcam and I filmed the piece from within, moving with and between Robin and Dakota.
"What do you think of this version filmed with the GoPro? Does it change the essence of the piece for you? Do you see any opportunities that could enhance the work with the use of the GoPro?"
