Sams Lesson
Dance
In todays lesson, we worked on 'America'. We had to get it done. So the first thing we talked about was how we wanted to set the beginning. We watched the film version of America and tried to get as much of the movements written down. We had a few ideas, we we were working on such as, the boys on one side of the room and the boys on the other and Anita and Bernado having a competition of the sexes to see what they think about America.
We then just did little movements to represent how we were feeling being in America and reacting to what she was saying e.g. 'money owing' we would do a little had gesture symbolising money and other things like that. We then fit our little dance routine that we had in time with the music and because it was in 6/8 the timing was slightly harder than everyone though but because I understood the music, I got the hang of it a bit quicker. Sam also said to us that on every other bar is an accented 123 bar which was good, so we knew which move could fit in where. It was peicing together really well and it was sound great also.
