DQ "WordUp" Challenge



Calling all Dance Queens! Do you need new inspiration? Do you like a good challenge? Well we have something just for you! We are going to be hosting a series of dance creation challenges to help inspire you and give you new adventures in dance creation.  We are calling the first challenge "Word Up". We at Dance Queens have compiled a list of 20 intriguing words. Each choreographer will pick a number 1-20 and be randomly assigned a word. You will Google that word and search Google images for one image derived from your search that inspires you to create a dance.

You will build a dance founded in that image.  Perhaps it will inspire a set, a costume, a song... and you will go from there.  You will have a month to create a dance inspired by that image that represents your word, to knock our pixel socks off! You can enter starting right now! IM Sarebear68 to be assigned a number and on December 9th @7:00 pm SLT we will be holding a party at DQ to announce everyone's assigned words and to further explain this creation challenge, as well as answer any questions you may have!

The only rule is NO RULES! Take risks and run wild with your ideas! It is not mandatory that you perform. If you'd like a number to challenge yourself let Sarebear68 know but please also say that you wont be performing. We will have 1 shared tip jar and all tips will be split between choreographers and the DJ. This does not include any back up dancers. When you IM Sarebear68 to enter, you will be sent more info. For example a LM to backstage, a stage template, and a group invite. We will be performing our dance creations on Jan 13th 2018 at 1pm SLT. START YOUR ENGINES!!!!
