Our concept for the this piece was to incorporate a postapocalyptic dance. All of our movements are very hard and
jagged. We are trying for a very hard, mean piece, so there are
little to no smiles. To make this piece more challenging for us,
we decided to separate our piece onto two groups. We
intertwine occasionally, and then we separate, which was
really a hassle for us to do two different things at the same
time. Our piece really came together at the end. What we had
imagined for our costume was something very dirty, like a
black, browns, maybe greens.

Our song is Radioactive by Imagine Dragons, it

is three minutes and eight seconds.

The show order went up. our piece did not make it in. We were sort
of hoping it would make it in. But we knew that our piece was sort of
messy and that it. We got below a 9, one reason was because we
would all not go at the same time.

Reflection
I have really enjoyed my piece, I really like the concept that we have going on. I
really enjoyed my time working with my group, they all have been very cooperative. We
had many ideas, and everyone had a voice in the creative aspect of this. Of course there
will always be differences. But we always worked together to make sure that everybody
was well suited in our piece. There was times where we would hit a stump and not be
able to create anything. If these were to happen, we would take the day to clean the
piece, and hopefully think of something. I have enjoyed the process, and I feel like I have
learned a lot by working with them and the choreography that we all helped create. Most
of us tweaked the choreography so that we all had something that we all really liked.
Overall the creation process was very enlightening, I wish we could of been in another
dance all together. It was a great experience.
