Task 7a Part 9: My Professional Artefact, finishing my Critical Review and Skype Discussions

The task 7a of the Module 3 of the BA (Hons) in Professional Practice at the Middlesex University consists of carrying out my professional inquiry.

In this Part 9 of this task I will speak about my professional artefact, how I am finishing my Critical Review and my most recent skype discussions.

My workplace: The Latvian National Opera & Ballet in Riga

Firstly, in terms of my Professional Artefact I decided to create a short film showcasing to my professional practice, the dance field, the research that I have been carrying out in the past months through the first part of my Inquiry: The Critical Review.  I will be narrating it through the language of the dance field (choreography, developing my own creation) as well as speaking. It will be filmed in my work place in Riga at the Latvian National Opera & Ballet (Photo above). The objective of this short film is to bring closer and to make my audience, within my own artistic field, to understand what is the impact of the new technologies on the creative process in the 21^st Century Professional Dance. And the structure of it will be divided into seven different scenes

For the past weeks I have been working hard on my Critical Review (Photo above) having almost finished a complete draft to hand it in to Adesola and the end of this week and afterwards use her feedback to complete week by week till the deadline on January.

Also this week, I attended the skype session with my classmates, Eleanor and Hannah and conducted by Adesola where we listen to each other´s inquiry to help us to improve so we can all learn from others and apply into our own works.

Don´t forget to keep following the blog and my Google + Community for the updates about my research!
