DANC 3910 - Composition II

Institution:

Utah Tech University

Subject:

Dance

Description:

Dance Composition II is the continued study of the theories and practices of creating choreography. Students participate in a variety of exercises to develop unique movement generation and to develop their own creative process. The course will expand upon the explorations in Composition I and Improvisation by broadening exposure to different choreographic elements: choreographic devices, collaboration, adding supporting production elements, shtick busting, and continued development of a personal voice. Students will continue to develop their ability to articulate about creative processes through critique, written and verbal assignments. Exposure to choreographic concerns will be supported by video, readings, class participation, and choreographic exploration. ***COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs)** At the successful completion of this course, students will: 1. Develop dance studies from conception to fruition, experimenting with the topics covered throughout the course. 2. Articulate the creative process and present findings. 3. Articulate critical analysis of other's dance works. 4. Synthesize information gleaned from various sources into choreographic processes. 5. Demonstrate an expanded awareness of their artistic voice.
