In the course “Artistic Design” you will complete the process of creating one or more choreographic works. You will learn different models of choreographic design from Laban movement theory as well as from contemporary dance, which you will use for your choreographies. In particular, these models include the aspects of spatial design or the use of the stage space, the dynamic qualities and phrasing of movement in favor of your chosen artistic theme and your individual artistic expression. In addition, the course will sensitize you to the inclusion of music, lyrics, props and costumes. In order for your choreography to grow from your personality and bear the character of your individuality, you will be guided to reflect on your personal artistic process based on several criteria such as “from improvisation to composition” or “overcoming your hurdles leading to the deepening of the works”. The goal is the creation of individual, authentic works with strong expressiveness and artistic quality.
