During this workshop with the director I focussed on spatial awareness as this routine has many formations where we are close together. Therefore, I don't want to collide with anyone while moving in these formations, as seen at (0:07-0:25). I did this well as I did not crash into anyone and kept to my own space so I could fully execute the movements to their fullest potential. For example, I was especially spatially aware when travelling backwards (0:30-0:33). However, I want to improve further by not looking behind me when travelling backwards so the routine looks more professional. Before the rehearsal we did a warm up that got our stamina going as it is was quite fast. This helped up get prepared for the fast pace of the piece. What i have learnt about musical theatre dance is that is very fast and energetic and also it is very focussed on characterisation and acting too, not just dance. My aim for the next rehearsal is to have better timing as things like turning our heads and punching our hands to the sky (0:23-0:29) was very out of time so if I have good timing other people may follow as I am near the front of the triangle formation.
This was my final video of my singing solo and significant improvements were made. I had a lot more energy, characterisation and projection within my voice. I sang the song without backing vocals and you can hear me clearly. also, my voice was deep and strong to match the intimidating character I was trying to portray. I danced full out while singing and my energy remained high. My movements did not look lazy, and I looked like I was enjoying myself. My characterisation also improved within my eye contact to the camera to look more intimidating, my jazz movements and my facial expressions which were snide and conceited. However, I dd miss some timing as the karaoke version was very different to the singing version I learnt, but I think I handled the p;roblem well.
