Video Critique Guideline:
This critique should not include your opinion of the video. There is no required for a starting or concluding paragraph. Basically start the critique by writing your 5 paragraphs (feel free to compare and contrast the two videos). You should divide the critique into three sections-
1. A shorter paragraph on the types of music, types of dance and types of choreography (narrative, thematic, abstract).
2. A more comprehensive paragraph on the physical characteristics(costuming, footwear, stage space, sets (if any), props (if any), lighting and backdrop. and
3. Three paragraphs (1 each) for the aforementioned three choreographic characteristics of space, time and energy.
Physical Characteristics:
Include observations such as what type of costumes & props are visible. What is the set? Lighting for the dance? How about the dance flooring? What type of dance shoes or footwear is being worn?
Choreographic Characteristics:
Space: Include things like Levels used (is there high level with jumping? low level with kneeling? middle level with locomotors movements? What type of locomotors movements? (Running, hopping, skipping, leaping, etc.) Direction including forward, backward and diagonally on the performance space. Inward vs. outward focus. Depth/Width on the stage including symmetry (the balancing of the movements equally on the stage) vs. asymmetry (unequal or unbalanced staging). And phrases and transitions include high and low points and dynamic changes in the course of the dance (much like you have with sentences in constructing a paragraph!).
Time: Include things like Speed/Tempo relating to the how fast or slow the dancers are moving in relation to the music pulse/underlying beat. Stillness when the dancer is momentarily "frozen" in place in the dance.
Energy: Include movement qualities such as percussive, swinging, sustained, vibrating and suspending.
Important! Be sure to give examples of your observations (such as: "The dancer showed suspended energy when she was held overhead by her partner). Do not simply state: "In this dance there was suspended energy".
