Other Work Samples for:

Casey and partner have demonstrated an adequate level of competence in structuring movement to a chosen stimulus. They establish a relationship with one another through the use of mirroring and unison which sets up the concept or intent. There is some variation in use of space from the floor level to the transversal plane as well as the small circular pathway. The performance explores shape, level and direction but the movement used is more gestural than abstracted. There is some exploration of time and dynamics but the purpose of these is unclear. There is an understanding of creating a dance using manipulation of the elements of dance but there is a reliance on predictable movements to achieve a structure. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by students performing at grade C standard.
