(Dress Rehearsal) Weekly Log

[miraclelivemod]

It's early November at Harugaizumi International School. Last week, the whole school put on a cultural festival, with the School Idol Club having a performance in the gym. You got a pretty decent turnout, but that's no reason to rest on your laurels; practice and school both continue this week! Have fun, check out the setting, and keep your ears open. You never know what opportunities will pop up for you!

[ Ryoko dips her head in a nod. ]

Then I'd like to learn. Even if we can't use it right away, it'll be useful to have it as part of our skillsets.

Sure! The basics are kind of like... you know Egyptian hieroglyphs? It's meant to look like that.

[She demonstrates a little again, but more slowly so it's easier to see what she's doing.]

You want fluid but precise movement.

[nmc0204]

Of all the places to go for inspiration for an idol group...

[ But it's not a complaint. Ryoko follows along with her movements as best she can – she's got the movements themselves down, but her motion isn't quite snappy and precise enough. Given enough practice, though, she'll probably get it. ]

This would work best with something that has quite a heavy beat, don't you think?

[saltedcarmel]

A lot of the pro idols do it! So you don't need a super heavy beat, but something with energy. Like this.

[She starts humming one of their more energetic songs, and does some voguing to it, and it's probably not anything like choreography that they'd do as a group, but it looks good when she does it. It's all that dance training jumping out.]

For us, though, it's useful when you're doing a solo. Like, if you're center, you can do this while the rest of us move around and save some breath.

[nmc0204]

I see... I wouldn't have thought to try something like this before, but it's surprisingly useful...

[ She hums to herself in thought before continuing. ]

Should we pick out one of our songs and see if we can work something like this into the choreography?
