【正文】 Professor: Now, when you think about choreography, well, uh, for your last assignment, you choreographed the dance that was performed on stage in front of live audience. Now, screen dance is very different. It is a dance routine you will be choreographing specifically to be viewed on a screen, on a puter screen, a TV screen, in a movie theater, any screen. So the question we have to ask is, what39。s the difference between choreography for a live performance and choreography for onscreen viewing? OK. Think for a minute. When you see a movie, is it just a film of people acting on a stage? Of course not. Movies use a variety of camera angles and creative editing. Movies can distort time, slow movement down, or speed it up, show actors fading in and out of scenes, etc. All of these ? all of these filmmaking techniques, things that can39。t be used in a live performance, are possible in a screen dance. Now, we39。ll cover these concepts in greater detail later, but you should be getting the idea that I don39。t want you to just film dancers on stage and turn it in as your screen dance project. Uh, Yes? Debbie. Student: But isn39。t something lost here, Professor Watson? I am a dancer, and when I perform on stage, I am so energized by the audience39。s reactions, the applause. I actually, and for a lot of dancers, it ? it really inspires us. Professor: You39。re right. Screen dance, which is a relatively new, isn39。t for everyone. Uh, some dancers may seem reluctant to participate in your project, because they do thrive on the immediacy of iBTTPO 之家 performing live. If this happens, you could point out that screen dance offers other ways for dancers to connect to their audience. For example, dancers can express themselves, even change the whole mood of the scene through a facial expression. And you could film closeup shots of their faces. Facial expressions aren39。t as important in live performances generally, because the choreographer knows that someone in the back row of a theater may not be able to see a dancer39。s face clearly. Student: But ? um, I have never used a movie camera or edited film before. How will we learn everything we need to know to ? ? Professor: Oh, don39。t worry. The cameras you will be using are pretty simple to operate. And you39。ll get to play with the filmediting software several times before beginning your project. You39。ll also have the option of working with a student in the film department, someone who39。s familiar with the technology. But the choreography and the end result will be your responsibility of course. Student: Could you talk some more about the film making techniques, you know, the ones that work best forscreen dances? Professor: I39。ll show some of my favorite screen dances next week to give you a better idea. But, uh, OK. Here39。s one technique that can create the illusion of flow in a screen dance. You film the same dancer, entering and exiting the frame several times. Moving slowly at first, then faster and faster. Then in the editing room, you can digitally manipulate these images, like you might put five or ten or twenty copies of that same dancer meeting himself in the middle of the screen, to make it look like he is dancing with himself. Obviously, this can39。t be done in a live performance. Another example, in one screen dance I saw, the dancers leap through sheets of fire in a big abandoned building. Of course, the building wasn39。t really on fire. A technique called superimposing was used. The dancers were filmed and layered in the editing room. The fire was added to the background. Student: That sounds awesome. But if anyone can watch a dance on a puter screen. Why would they pay to go see a live performance? What if screen dance got so popular that it replaced live dance? Professor: Screen dance is an entirely different type of presentation. It could never replicate the immediacy, the kind of drama that live performance offers. There will be an audience for that. I think what screen dance will do, though, is heighten awareness of dance in general. Because it is a way ? u h, it can reach people in their homes, in their workplaces, at anytime really. And if someone discovers that they love dance by watching a screen dance, there39。s a good chance they will get interested enough to buy a ticket to see a live performance. 注： 本文所有資料來(lái)源于網(wǎng)絡(luò)。 TPO 軟件下載 順便做一個(gè)小廣告：如需要 TPO 單機(jī)軟件版本（非 PPS，無(wú)需聯(lián)網(wǎng)，聽(tīng)力圖、文、音同步）可以到 免iBTTPO 之家 費(fèi)下載試用版 ，或者直接到 27161348購(gòu)買完全版。
