5.2.1 Explain how you used dance elements and/or choreographic structures to communicate the theme/intents.
Answer
Theme: Every Day is Earth Day
Space: We utilized South African beaches, enhancing the performance with the backdrop of plastic pollution, emphasizing environmental awareness.
Canon: Movements were executed in a canon style to symbolize the waves washing ashore, portraying the impact of pollution.
The coordination of elements effectively communicated the theme by engaging the audience emotionally and intellectually.

5.2.2 Your choreography PAT required you to plan and create a dance work.
Answer
Step 1: Research/Investigation
Conduct focused research to deepen understanding of the chosen theme. This informs improvisation sessions with dancers.
Step 2: Improvisation
I will guide dancers to improvise based on research, fostering creativity in movement and establishing the foundation for choreography.
Step 3: Selection of Performance Space
Choosing a beach setting allows for experimentation with movement while considering how space impacts the choreography.
Step 4: Selection of Music/Accompaniment
During my improvisation process, I will assess various music styles that enhance the emotional quality of the dance.
Step 5: Selecting Production Elements
Once the space and music are finalized, I will focus on costumes and props to further convey the theme of environmental awareness.
Step 6: Reflection
Finally, I will evaluate the entire process, ensuring that the choreography aligns with the original theme.
