This seminar is designed for junior students pursuing the minor who are planning to choreograph a senior independent project. Part study and discussion of the processes, aesthetics and politics involved in dance making and viewing—part independent creative practice and critique—this course invites students to a deeper understanding of their own art-making perspectives and to those of their classmates. A practical lighting workshop and other workshops of particular interest to the class prepare students for some of the directional, collaborative and interpersonal challenges involved in leading a significant choreographic enterprise.
