Lighting Design:

Description of the piece:
•    To tell a story of love
•    To have the dancers show and feel the emotion of the story
•    To paint a clear picture of what true love is

This dance is about telling a story of love, emotion and the feeling of what true love means deep in side of your soul. This dance will have two main dancers a guy and a girl that will be fighting with TRUE love while the Group dancers stand in the way as road blocks in there love life.

What I am looking for: Looking for ten people that are in touch with there emotion and are willing to show it. The emotion to be in every step they take, need to paint a picture on what you are feeling, it CANT be JUST act out. A) Need two strong dancers one girl and one guy, they need to work off each other with there movements. They need to show great emotion and attitude in every step they take. The other ten, needs to be 5 girls, with the knowledge of dance, and also need to have attitude in there movements. The other five need to be guys, that know dance, and know how to leaps and jump. And also need to know how to show emotion in there movements, and to be afraid of doing it.

â€oeI donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t want to miss a thing”

On deciding, on a song to choreograph to, there are three main things to think of? They are the motivation, intention, and the theme. The motivation is the reason to do the song. The intention is to have a basic message to convey to the audience. The theme is the underlying idea or the concept of the dance. The song I pick was I donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t want to miss a thing, by Aerosmith.
    My motivation for picking the song I donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t want to miss a thing is two reasons the type of music, the story behind he song, and the how the song made me feel. The song â€oeI donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t want to miss a thing” is a very emotional song done by Aerosmith. The type of the song was the first reason I pick this song, because I am a very emotional person and I like a song that can move you and make you think. The story behind the song â€oeI donâ€<sup>TM</sup>t want to miss a thing” is the song is play in a love scene in the movie. One person has to leave his love, save the world and he doesnâ€<sup>TM</sup>t know if he will see her again.  
My intention with this song is try to show what true love is and how fast you can lose it. In the dance I would like to say something that goes like this, how anybody can be in love with the person of there dreams, and at the end finding out that the love the person thought was true was in doubt false love, and how fast a person can get there heart broken.
    The theme is the underlying idea or the concept of the dance. The theme to this dance I break down into two parts, the style and the massage of the dance. The style is a, basic jazz. The message I want to say is, my own story of lost love. On how even the strongest hearted person can be brought down by love from another.
