Project Showcase

• Shows the emotional roller-coaster that 2020 has brought and demonstrates the calm that people need.
• Uses choreography to show what we feel cannot be perfectly communicated through words.
• Talks about what the project means to us and how the dance shows what we’re trying to say.

The top 3 things I learned from this showcase are:

1. It’s hard to find choreography that is perfect to show what you’re trying to say in your motions.
2. Even with most things being opened back up after the lockdown, Covid-19 still causes many roadblocks. For example, we are able to come into school but because we can only come some days and we have to social distance, group projects like this one are much harder.
3. Choregraphing a dance to demonstrate the emotional strain that a huge amount of people have been through brings about a lot of emotions in the process of making the project.

This project relates to our families, our peers, and most other people in the world because we have all been through tough times in one way or another during 2020. The project is all about how we have all felt the emotional weight of the events going on in this year so far. The fact that we personally have gone through 2020 and felt the burdens that it’s brought made it a lot easier to relate our lives to our project.

In reflection, one thing that we would have done differently during our journey with this showcase is that we would’ve planned out better how to complete this project in a timely manner. We would’ve started working harder from the start instead of pushing it off and only doing the little things for the project in the beginning. If we were to do it again, we would focus more on our time management.

One thing we are most proud of by completing this project, is just simply being able to finish this project with a partner and produce a project that we are proud of even though we had much less time to work together, we had to social distance, and wear masks. We had many obstacles and things that added to the stress of group projects but we still completed it and that makes me proud.
