Bhangra- Week 4!

Monday 7th March 2011
On Monday we decided as a group that our aim would be to develop our motifs and to develop our routines. On Monday we also decided about new tracks. Over the weekend most of our group had been researching different types of music we could use for our performance to make it unique and yet bouncy. This was one of the things we wanted to do from reflection last lesson so i think this was great team work. We found a few different songs and this was good because when we tried to do one of our dances to 'Jai ho' by the pussycat dolls it didn't go because it was too rushed, but when we danced it to a new song we found called 'Lover mera hit hit by bilu barber' it went perfectly. Why dont you take a listen:

On Tuesday we tried to finish the routine. Unfortunately we were unable to because everyones music is on one ipod so its very hard to share it equally! This is our aim for the next lesson. In Tuesday's lesson we also gave miss most of our timings so that she could put them into a mini soundtrack so that we can perform in caberet on friday! Our main element in this lesson was to see if our choreography portrayed the storyline 'forbidden love'. In the following lessons we aim to work on emotion and depth in our performance.

Wednesday was a costume construction lesson. Unfortunately we were in the TC's so we were unable to get much work done, although we were able to paint our costume designs for our corsets. Some of us even manged to add detail in with our coloured pencils. We didnt have enough time to fully finish it all, so our homework is to finish this!

This weeks been extremely hecktick but very fun! Tonight i will blog about the dance jai ho, this is to do with my research side of the assignment!
