Student Showcase at The Belvis Center

Student Showcase (2017) Over the course of this school year I took a class called Health and Wellness. In this class we learned about self-awareness, community building and goal setting. For the culminating event for this class we volunteered at a student showcase that demonstrated the forms of dance that the schools that participating learned. My role was mostly working on sound, although I did help out with a few other minor jobs as well.

For this action project we got into groups of three and write a script and then make a video acting it out. For this video I worked with MDS and KM . The video that we made had to have three characters, the first being Nora from A Doll's House, the second character had to be a historically significant person and the third and final person had to be a person acting as themselves with there own beliefs. In the video we had to have a discussion about the question "Should men & women have different roles in society?". My role in this scene was myself, MDS played the famous Carrie Fisher and KM played Nora. A Q
