Andy and Myself (3Object motif)

In this video, Myself and my classmate had to bring in three objects that mean something to us and would like to start choreographing with. Example, In my other post I have a basketball, a baby picture of my father holding me at my 1st birthday, and a stuffed animal. Then we had to make a motif including this three objects and put them all together. In this motif I wanted to show strength in my movements for example when in the beginning I start to raise my hands and bring them down beside my body in a slow motion. I wanted to elongate that part to start showing this motif is a strength/ growing process. A lot of my movements are very tense within my arms and a lot of me standing up instead of on the floor. First My teacher told me to change my dance around but standing up because I'm always on the floor when I come up with solos. So standing up was a big jump than what I'm "use" to. In this motif I also wanted to make it clear that my father wasn't always there for me like he should've been and he didn't support me through dance but before I started dancing I also did basketball and he attended all my games. I made my moves very firm but then loosing up after stretching my arms to show the gaps between him wanted to be there and choosing to not be there when I changed my dream.
