Over the next few weeks, we will be completing a media
project that will involve both Umit Caglayan and Warren Hugh Murray who will
create a web series and who will also feature in each episode of the series.
This web series will include the components of a dancer’s life, including what
happens inside and outside of the dance studio. For example: The dancer’s diet
and technique. It will also include the preparation for a performance and
interviews from professionals, dancers and teachers from a range of styles of
genres.
Warren’s role in the making of this project will be the
filming of what goes on inside of the dance studio recording the process of
preparing for a performance. Including choreographic intention, restrictions
and progress of each dancer. Following dancers and teachers as they lead their
normal lives in dance, interviewing them to find out what goes on in the studio
and what it takes to prepare for a performance.
Umit’s role in the making of this project will be the
filming of what happens outside of the dance studio, this will include a
dancers diet, how to prepare for a dance class and what to do when at home in
case of an injury. I will be interviewing my dance teacher and asking her about
her personal experiences with certain injuries.
This project will be presented in a video blog (VLOG) style
and uploaded to YouTube weekly. The video will be uploaded every Friday. and it will feature some of the qualities that we have stated above.
