Assignment 2 ; Gotta work
In this assignment I am fully aware of the opportunities and
requirements to be successful in the Dance Industry.
I love fashion and get inspired through many different ways, therefore
I chose a costume Designer. Research described that a Costume Designer is
responsible for creating the look and mood for a dancer on Television, Films
and any other stage productions. They physically take on this role by
designing, sewing, researching and purchasing clothing for dancers to wear as
costumes on stage. As well as designing the costumes, they also need to work
closely on the accessories and props to make sure they all co-ordinate through
style and clothing as well as the scripts/ characters role.
A costume Designer could start with little experience and
make their own progress, yet being experienced is crucial to have a high level
paid job. Therefore expert in Beauty and style is important, as well as
understanding of the film/ production. Costume designers should have good
fashion sense, extensive knowledge bringing imagination and drive to the
costumes. Every Costume designer should love their job role and therefore want
to progress by research and continually learn about scenarios, cultures and
periods of history to help demonstrate and understand the director’s vision.
Reading the script is very important to understand the look that needs to be
created for the character as well as stage settings.
Education is needed, normally it progresses from Gcse, to
then A level fashion/ textiles and increases to a foundation course of 2-4
years of fashion. 4 years is more intellectual due to having a higher aspect to
get hired. Master degrees can be gained as well through Theatre, Broadcasting
and costume design. HND degree or a postgraduate in costume, performing arts
design/ fashion will also be accepted.
While researching different
job applications it’s important to have a Driving License due to the amount of
travelling that is required in this job. Every Costume designer should have a
portfolio of their work progressing throughout the years will show the employer
what can be produced in the on-going years. So more experience and knowledge
the better.
Financial costs for a Costume Designer can vary, they can
either be paid hourly, which can vary from £8.00 an hour + or can be paid for
every production they do, this can exceed to £500.00. However while getting
paid you are always varying your own experience and knowledge a lot more which
will help further on going work.
Costume designers work alongside Directors, lighting
designer, sound designers and make - up artists. However work physically strong
with a director due to making sure costumes match with the script/ theme of the
dance. The costumes need to be scene when dancing so working in a strong
relation with the lighting directors will help to understand what aspects need
to be considered. Alternatively with a Make- Up artist, due to the different
significant colours , making sure the costumes match and it does not make the
dancer look flushed out or feel uncomfortable, by what they look like.
Therefore I feel a strong relationship and communication skills need to be
interpreted at all times to understand what each job role requires.
In conclusion a Costume Designer can either be self - employed
depending on the name they have for themself, well known because of their
positive physical ability, yet it all depends on the experience that they have
got, so working with a company can also be progressed through a degree, there
are also opportunities in this industry for recognition, due to dancers going
on stages in front of thousands, individuals may see the work being addressed
and want this for their production. Therefore will kindly ask the Costume
Designer to work alongside them, recognition is offered, as well as further training
opportunities like, Rada, Bristol old Vic theatre and schools always need
Costume designers and will give out opportunities to designers they think can address
this role.
Alternatively I looked at a Director due to this being an
option I would consider after my further education at University.
A director is responsible for rehearsals, co-ordinating and
supervising the rehearsal within the company. Therefore if the choreographer is
ill then the Director would then step in and teach the class, yet some
individuals class Directors as ' Not expert enough.' Directors are known as choreographers right
hand man, the level of responsibility is to make sure the dancers know the
choreography and can interpret the work set, being led/ supported by the
Director.
A Director will work strongly with the Choreographer,
organisations and performers. Due to having one on ones with the choreographer
to physically learns the choreography being taught to the dancers. The Director
should have a physical and emotional bond with the performers to fully be aware
on how they respond to the way the Director will teach the rehearsals.
Alternatively there are a range of different organisations that a Director
could work with; these are local schools, Theatre Company’s, as well as dance company’s
especially Rambert Dance Company. A Director is one individual and therefore
will have their own professional name, and could work for organisations but
also have their own Agent that will help and offer the Director through self-direct
work. Depending on the training and on how well known the Director is to
individuals they therefore could be self - employed, and the choreographer will
then pay the Director to step in and help. The more experience the more employability.
Training is essential for a Director due to having to have
training, especially technique, having a range of different styles and knowing
the knowledge for each of these. Working in dance schools, colleges and variety
of company’s can increase the knowledge and experience. A Director is required
to rehearse 8 hours a day. A postgraduate degree in dance, but also self-experience and an overall
passion for dance, wanting to always learn and extend your individual
knowledge.
In comparison for these 2 roles, they are connected in
relation to working together, due to a Costume Designer needing the guidance
and physical explanation on the task they are commanding. On the other hand a
Dance Director is being told what to do by a higher professional. Both a Director and Costume Designer can
either be self - employed depending on the title they have towards the public
or can work in a company based business.
Being a Costume Designer can have little training, degrees
due to themself gaining the physical experience throughout their time of
learning to become a successful Designer. Alternatively a Director needs to
have had physical training especially technique training, this will interpret
how to hold your posture work your core and body placements. So to be a successful
Director training is crucial but also on-going training needs to be countered
as on-going progress even when they have the job title as a Director. The
average age of a Director after all the education would be 21 years old, yet a
Costume Designer can start at a young age and be earning a salary by the age of
18.
Both jobs are in the same position to be employed due to a
Costume Designer can be in the same company for many years and this could be
20+, this also counters for a Director, it is very hard to be employed as a
Director due to so many different physical requirements the choreographer are
looking for this could be, knowing the style of dance, experience and time -
management. Overall from my research I
have found both job roles could work in the same dance company, yet the Costume
designer would follow the guidance from a Director, but the Managers and higher
professions will expect and rely on both job roles for the final product.
After researching both jobs, I would really like to
undercover training for these, and due to the dance industry being a tough
industry if I was never successful then I would look into becoming a costume
designer due to having experience and some qualifications for this, however I
want to peruse my dream as a Choreographer.

The two arts administrations I have chosen are a Producer as well
as a Theatre Manager.
Producers are behind the scenes manager of the dance industry;
therefore they make all the business decisions for any stage, film productions.
A producer will decide on the overall scope to the project and which of the
following scripts and creative ideas will be developed. A producer is also
often responsible for securing financial banking as well as editing, scoring
and marketing the production.
The producer remains very close to the project, having an
oversight of the dance production development, as well as overseeing the work
of other producers. All producers work strongly in a positive relation with
each other, gaining technique and each other’s experience for their own
individual training.
No specific training is required, yet there are degree
programmes in the arts management. Statistics show that a lot of dancers and
actors, further on their education to a producer, if unsuccessful in the dance
industry. However producers get their jobs from being close to the performing
arts industry, therefore under covered education in business, marketing.
A Producer will work with a Director, however big shows
emphasize the role of a director unless famous, therefore the producer will
have the most control throughout that performance. Producers will also work
with creative consultants, through communication and demands. Organisations are
very important, a producer can work in
strong relationships with a lot of different organisations to encounter and address
significant outcomes to the productions like television commercials, Dance trailers,
Posters with their own photo image, as well as having a strong relation to
distribute deals with other theatres and studio space.
Overall responsibility for a Theatre Manager is to run a
theatre bringing profit to the company. A theatre manager will hire and manage
employees engaging in marketing efforts to promote shows. A theatre manager
will undercover a numerous of roles, these would be organise show times, order
concession food, oversee the budget that they have to work with as well as
making sure that everything runs smoothly.
A theatre manager will work in a strong relation with
security personnel, engaging the crew staff understand the roles that they need
to address for the production. Managers will need to ensure that the stage is
built with health and safety regulations in order as well as making sure all
costumes and belongings have security at all times. The theatre manager will have an assistants
who will help undercover all the roles that need to be taken into place to make
sure that the production will bring profit.
However a Theatre manager will spend most of their time in an
office, communicating to organisations working out, payrolls, what productions
the public will want to see as well as food organisations and communicating
with film contributors.
The training to become a successful Theatre manager would be
2 years degree only if the Manager worked in a small theatre, however graduate
degree, progressing onto university is essential, as well as any experience working
in a theatre as a part time job. If you have experience in the performing arts
industry, marketing or productions then there is a chance with further training
you could start as an assistant and work your way up physically to become a
manager. Connections with business participants will help gain the
responsibility and physical understanding of how the theatre management works.
Also a degree in business or any fine arts can be encountered towards becoming
a Theatre manager.
There are two different types of Theatre Managers this all
depends on the qualifications you have got, if you only have a 2 year degree
course in theatre studies then you will only be able to apply for jobs as a
manager in a small theatre. This is were the manager would control everything
due to not alot of job roles as only a small company. However in a larger
Theatre you would employe an assistant who would work on the front line.
Organisations are important to a Theatre so making sure that
the Manager has a strong relationship with organisations are crutial, due to
touring companys performing at the theatre covering small financial costs,
therefore this will help to promote the theatre, giving it a positive name/
overview.
A theatre manager will work strongly on their own, with
connections whom will look up towards the manager, therefore the manager will
work directly higher up in the rob role than any assistants, therefore will get
paid a Salary rather than a direct hourly pay, the average amount that a
manager will financial get will be, 16,000 - 17,000 a year, yet a manager will
be on a salary but will work way over their contracted annual hours, due to
being their to open the theatre and close it, this could consist on over 12
hours a day. Financial aspects for a Theatre manager are very expensive so
making sure that the theatre is bringing in profit at all times to the company.
A Theatre manager is in contol of all duties and roles that
are needed to be taken upon to make the theatre a success, physically socially
and financially.
In comparison the TheatreManager will directly own a producer due to employing them to produce/ product the show. A theatre managers job title is higher up in employability and salary due to a producer being paid hourly, however a Theatre manager would be on a annual salary. In conclusion a Producer will conduct more physical work than a Theatre manager due to a Theatre manager working solo in an office conducting the financial work rather than the practical side ready for the production.
Overall I feel that a producer would be more suitable for me due to being a physical individual and rather conduct practical work than sitting down to gather the financial, intellectual side. However a Theatre Manager's role is much more theoretical than a Producers, I feel with a Theatre Manager you need to know alot of knowledge and background about the buisness industry, yet a Producer has to organise the financial sides aswell, yet I feel a Theatre Managers job title seems more efficient and employable than a Producer. Therefore in Comparison I feel that a Producer would be more physical for me and I would enjoy this job role.

There are two different types of Theatre Managers this all depends on the qualifications you have got, if you only have a 2 year degree course in theatre studies then you will only be able to apply for jobs as a manager in a small theatre. This is were the manager would control everything due to not alot of job roles as only a small company. However in a larger Theatre you would employe an assistant who would work on the front line.
Organisations are important to a Theatre so making sure that the Manager has a strong relationship with organisations are crutial, due to touring companys performing at the theatre covering small financial costs, therefore this will help to promote the theatre, giving it a positive name/ overview.
A theatre manager will work strongly on their own, with connections whom will look up towards the manager, therefore the manager will work directly higher up in the rob role than any assistants, therefore will get paid a Salary rather than a direct hourly pay, the average amount that a manager will financial get will be, 16,000 - 17,000 a year, yet a manager will be on a salary but will work way over their contracted annual hours, due to being their to open the theatre and close it, this could consist on over 12 hours a day. Financial aspects for a Theatre manager are very expensive so making sure that the theatre is bringing in profit at all times to the company.
A Theatre manager is in contol of all duties and roles that are needed to be taken upon to make the theatre a success, physically socially and financially.

Gotta dance, gotta act . Undderstand an employment opportunity and therequirements for that role.
In this assignment I have fully understood the variety of different employment opportunities and requirements for a successful dancer.
A dancer is a type of artist that involves movement of the body, a dancer expresses facts, stories, beats and resonance with his or her body, therefore this can be danced in relation to a narrative, stimuli or rythm. it is performed in many cultures as a form of emotional expressiosn and social interaction. Dancers can create a piece with non verbal communication, therefore anyone with passion of dancing can collaberate with the right experience and technique can become a dancer.
To become a successful proffesional dancer, it takes alot of hard work, physically, intellectually and emotionally as well as dedication throughout all times. Most proffesional dancers study for at least 2 years in an insitutue to earn a degree, for further career development.
Dancers can work independantly on their own, or with other individuals that can be part of an organisation. Depending on the form of dance, dancers can work strongly with theatres, stage schools, schools and private institutions. Depending on the dancers title, it will depend on where they will work. Each dancer will have their own job title, there are choreographers, Dance teachers, International dancers, Peformers, but it also depends on the dancers styles, their could be, ballet teachers, street dance teachers, west end performers, international dancers that will include; salsa, samba, bollywood, samba reggae, flamenco. Following up research into depth about an international dancer, I strongly believe this is the job role that I want to follow up in a more proffessional way, following future education at university to get my dance degree, to become the artist I want to be in 3 years time.
Their are a range of different organisations in the dance industry. However it is not ' what you know its who you know' therefore a dancer should take every opportunity to perform in any enviroment. A dancer whom is training to become a successful dancer in the industry will strongly work with organisations like local schools, dance studios teaching children dance routines, street performances, festivals that are local, like sussex festival which I am working with now ready for the Easter festival at sussex university. Part of all this training is a great way to help with technique aswell as confidence when performing. When you are a proffesional dancer, performing in Theatres, big events on stages, expecially in London, like 'move it'. Also the chance to work inside and outside, filming a dance choreography that yourself has choreographed this can also be performed at Festivals, street performances depending on the style, so more for street would be a great interpretation to perform on the streets. However the access to be on tour with different dance companys like Rambert dance company whom are all based on contemporary and jazz style dance, which have connections with Roehampton university, this could lead to proffesional work, which you will get paid for working hourly/ filming daily aswell as other financial costs like, transport and accomodation. A dancer will work strongly with local and well known organisations in the community arts.
Alternatively when looking for dance jobs the first thing to ask is. ' Are you committed?' dance jobs are all around the county/ country so if you are commited to travel far distance, the apply for a variety, these can be found on different websites like, ' StarAuditions' this is a website where you put in your details of what job you want and distance, then the organisation will email you with any updates on new job titles that are available, I am currently on this page and therefore have been given a range of different dance auditions to apply for, this is a great way physcially and emotionally to help technical wise and with self- esteem. Local newspapers will be updated on a weekly basis for any performing arts jobs, this could be at a local school or assistant at a dance company. Community, voluntry work is always positive on any portfolio.
Qualifications are crucial, English, maths are essential, aswell as A level in dance/ performing arts to give you the technique to further onto university or stage school for 2-3 years to get a degree.
A professional dancer needs to have been technically trained, knowing how to hold the core & posture at all times. Experience is a great success to the dance industry , so have experience on performing on stage, having a variety of different styles aswell as being open minded.
Further into my dance career I have realised its great to be open minded and be technically trained with a different range of styles to get the best outcome.
