Description
This presentation described the choreographic process that resulted in the work "Memory Fields." An excerpt of the work was performed during the presentation. "Memory Fields" began as a solo dance composition assignment and evolved into a full-length work for five dancers that was recently adjudicated at the American College Dance Festival. The infusion of emotion into movement became the basis of the piece. Elements of the choreographic process included the rehearsal process,-which gave the dancers time to refine their interpretation and performance skills. Other elements included commissioning a dance costume designer to create the costumes and developing the lighting design.
