In this lesson I started to put all of my movement ideas together in one motif so that I could start putting my piece together. I want to start with a travelling motif from the upstage right corner diagonally down, I want to use different types of jumps and turns in this sequence as this this first section is portraying Peter Pans happy personality and I think that these types of movements are appropriate for this. I found this section easier to choreograph as each movement flows into the next, I really want this to have smooth transitions to show how he is very carefree. I think that I did this well as non of my transitions in this section are walking or running, when doing this I tried to think of interesting ways of moving in and out our movements.
I then started to look at other parts of his personality traits such as his relationship with Captain Hook, because this dance is a solo I couldn't do this by physically showing them fighting, however I came up with the idea that he could still be sword fighting. I started to improvise hand and arm actions that could show this, once I had come up with a motif I decided to repeat it twice, however the first one was going to be on one knee and the second was going to be standing up. I wanted the one standing up to be bigger to make it look completely different to the first, when I first did this I wasn't sure how to place my hands, therefore I got some peer feedback to see which ways looked better and fitted with the theme best, as well as this I used the mirrors to see for myself which I preferred. After doing this I decided that I should have my fists clenched, this is to show that he is holding the sword, as well as this it fits better with his character.
