1. Dance is my passion and I love to share this art with others, this is one of the reasons why I dance to share with others. I enjoy contemporary dance and ballet, not only performing but choreographing on my students as well as myself. 2. While I do enjoy performing arts, my visual art skills are less polished. In high school I was really into photography and had to take visual arts 1 to progress to photography. I have made drawings and paintings before but never a sculpture.3. I enjoy going to the High Museum in Atlanta, the last time I went was with my sister over the Christmas break. I cannot recall the last time I visited a gallery or artist studio. 4. Dance has opened other avenues of performance for me, in high school I participated in many musicals and plays as a back up dancer, but I have never had the opportunity to participate in an Opera or art film. 5. I am taking this class as a requirement for my dance education major. 6.I learn best in environments that are less stressful environments. I work well if there is music playing in the background too, does not matter what kind honestly, classical, hip hop, r&b does not really matter. 7.I have defiantly been moved by the arts, they have inspired and provoked emotions, as well sparked creative thinking processes. The arts have give me motivation in my everyday life and has allowed me an outlet for my frustrations. 8.I am really inspired by movement,and my movement I mean life within an art form, a painting can have movement within it, music has movement throughout it. Defying and overcoming odds is also very inspirational to me. I am inspired by the potential of greatness. 9. Art is "a medium of expression where individuals and culture come together. It is the product of human creativity. A human endeavor with meaning beyond simple description." "Art effects the senses or emotions it is a process or product that encompasses a diverse range of human activity."
10. Art is movies, music, video games, comics as well as television they all reflect the culture and the society from which the emerged from. They all take creativity and a process that touches on multiple intelligences. 11. No can decide what good art is, art is defined in the eye of the beholder. Who am I to say that something is not good. While some art wavers on obscenity and good art no one can really determine if it is good or not. 12. When I debate music or movies with my friends the critical elements that I look for whether it provoked a thought process, if it made me think.13. The best movie of last year I guess I would have to say "The Black Swan" not as a dance movie, because of the stereotypical anorexic dancer but because of the psychological approach to it. The movie displays that we can be our own worst enemy. I am not a fan of dance movies and do not really think that it holds weight as a dance movie. 14. I honestly do not know what a art film is, I am assuming that it is a film that displays its plot mostly through various mediums of art.
