Dance 553 - CHOREOGRAPHY BY DESIGN

This class will examine and engage the choreographic process through a study of the interaction of expressive movement with concrete and abstract design ideas. Choreographic ideas developed in this class will be based on the premise that design elements can be used as source material for choreographic intent. In addition to studies and projects, weekly writings will be assigned. Prerequisites: two semesters of choreography (or equivalent), familiarity with basic music theory, coursework in theatrical production (or equivalent).
