Project Overview
For my honors project I was to choose a famous choreographer in history and create a dance using their various methods of choreographing. The dance style could be of my choice but the way I came up with my movement and put phrases together would have to mimic the process of the choreographer I chose. Merce Cunningham was a choreographer that interested me since he used lots of ballet inspired movement but had very unique ways of creating dances. I chose to study his history more fully and choreograph and experiment with his choreographing process.
