these are the words that mean to me a lot and I pick them up from the 2 articles.
DANCE MAGAZINE FEB.2005
By Sara Wolf (摘錄)
1)The opportunities are few and far between
2)Perseverance that are crucial to succeed
3)Technical skills, style and the attitude
4)Be versatile “ I would rather hire someone who knows their ballet terms than someone who is just street.” “You never know what they might ask you to do.”
5)Do your homework ahead of time
6)Bring a backup outfit just in case
7)A choreographer wants to see how FAST you pick up a phrase, how ACCURATELY you can perform it, and how well you RETAIN it.
8)Listen for rhythm changes
They want to see how well you can feel the phrasing in relation to the muzik
9)Be COURTEOUS and RESPECTFUL to the choreographer and all of her/his team.
10)BE RESPECTFUL TO YOUR COMPETITORS
11)How you treat people in an audition indicates to me how you will treat other dancers during a rehearsal.
12)Don’t draw attention to yourself while waiting on the side. Let those who are “on” have their chance to shine.
13)Walk directly to a spot on the floor. Perform as if for an audience.
14)Maintain a positive attitude.
15)No matter how many times you may be asked to repeat a phrase or whether you feel you’re being overlooked, keep a pleasant look on your face.
16)What “flavor” you bring to the movement.
17)YOU ONLY HAVE ONE SHOT, SO PERFORM AS IF YOUR LIFE DEPENDED ON IT.
By Theodore Bale (摘錄)
1)Audition makes you want it more, and then you really turn it on when you see someone else busting it out!
2)Some mistakes have turned out to be masterpieces. (taking risks)
3)Everything old is new again.
4)If you’re thinking about it too much, it will never happen
5)TORTURE YOURSELF
6)It’s kind of surreal to know that this is where I’m off to and that this is just a touch of what is ahead for me.
7)And whatever comes my way I’m going to take it in with a smile.
“who’s got rhythm all around him.”
8)Seamlessly merged into one big spectacle.
9)GET YOURSELF SEEN, GO AUDITION, AND STUDY WITH PLENTY OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE. DON’T LOCK YOURSELF IN THE STUDIO. WE ENCOURAGE OUR STUDENTS TO GO OUT IN THE WORLD AND HTAT’S WHAT LIGHTS UP THEIR EYES.
