Designing for Dance

Last week the dance piece I designed for was performed, it was a interesting process working with the choreographer and the dancers. I was lucky to have a great understanding of what the Dance piece was going to be about and being able to design something simple but good for the choreography.

Some photos are movements shots so they will be blury

Here you can see the 3/4 pants with the strapping on the torsoes, it was a all male cast so the bare chest worked well.
It was about the masculine qualities, made into dance. It was funny but also interesting to watch, I enjoyed it :)

Some very expressive movements

Hopefully these great boys will go onto doing lots of fun things in the future :)
