This subject extends the knowledge and application of dance-making and performing fundamentals established in Process and Practice 1 through more advanced approaches to the development of strategies for generating materials for performance creation and presentation. Students explore different creative directing/choreographic/performance processes in realising solo and group studies. Idiosyncratic approaches are evaluated along with alternative forms of conceptualising and realising dance. The further development of skills in utilising various modes of artistic material in dance-based performance includes the creation and incorporation of digital, audio and visual materials. Contextual seminars provide a basis for application of the strategies in a range of choreographic and performance practices.
