The little details

Sometimes its the little details that makes all the difference.

As how the little girl was learning to do the 'whatever', she put in all the details in adding the eye roll and hand up that made the moment a classic. Sometimes its just the little observations that enables the little girl to emulate that 'whatever' attitude.

Taking it from the aspect of dance, some people just look so good doing certain movements and it all boils down to noticing and adding the details. A little angle change or adding a certain attitude is all you need to carry off the style and movements. Applications of observations.

P/S: On a sidenote.... i love this kid, she's got the attitude!!!

Choreography and steps

Been catching ABDC on youtube these few days. With the favs being Kaba and Jabba of course.
Watching how they project concepts and visuals really amazes me.

Of course the steps will play a part but as a choreographer, you need to create visuals rather than making step based movements. But the most impressive was lates one by Jabbawockies (think i got my spelling right).

Dissecting it, it had so many things happening at one time that you don't know what to look at. The whole visual was more like a segment of a musical than purely a dance. There are 3 to 4 different dynamics at parts of the perfomance that makes it so exciting. Not an easy task for the choreographer especially.
