Project 2
Embodiment in Motion
Concept
As we know, embodiment practices use the body as tool for healing through self-awareness, mindfulness, connection, self-regulation, finding balance, and creating self acceptance. So in this project, my group and I decided to do a traditional dance as a way on how we want to see the body movement when we dance. We also want to see how traditional dance is show on 3D character as we were excited to learn how to use Motion Capture tools.

Brainstorming
As we listen to the music, it takes more than a minute so we decided to choose the important moves and steps. In this case, we were trying to disobey the rules in the project briefing because we thought it is impossible to make a dance for 30 seconds.
Plan A: 1 minute dance
** after 2 beats **
- Salam 1x4
- Silang kaki 1x4
- Burung kanan kiri kanan kiri 1x8
- Ngauk ai 1x4
- Pusing ke kiri 1x8
- Pusing ke kanan 1x8
- Ngauk ai 1x4
- Salam 1x4
After everything were done for the dancers' first practice, we thought that the dance is not neccessary to put the intro so we change a bit of the move and steps just to decrease the amount of time that has been taken.
Plan B: 58 seconds
** after 2 beats **
- Silang kaki 1x4
- Burung kanan kiri kanan kiri 1x8
- Bungai ajat 2x4
- Ngauk ai 1x4
- Pusing ke kiri 1x8
- Pusing ke kanan 1x8
- Ngauk ai 1x4
- Salam 1x4
Then after second practice, we still unsatisfied with the dance result. So, we decided to decrease the moves and number of steps just to fit in 30 seconds.
Plan C: 30 seconds
Dancer A
** after 2 beats **
- Silang kaki 1x4
- Pusing ke kiri 1x8
- Pusing ke kanan 1x8
- Ngauk ai 1x4
Dancer B
** after 2 beats **
- Silang kaki 1x4
- Bungai ajat ke kiri 1x4
- Bungai ajat ke kanan 1x4
- Ngauk ai 1x4
