After finishing and handing in, I am so proud and happy of how my artefact has turned out!
My professional artefact is a 10-minute audiovisual documentary, consisting of the audio recordings and filming of my experience as a professional dancer with Vienna Festival Ballet. It is designed for an audience of young and up-and-coming professional ballet dancers. This is the stage where we find our feet in the dance world; see where we fit in, what works for us and what doesn't. It is our time to really grow as artists and see how much we can push ourselves, where the limits are, and how to deal with the pressures. This audiovisual pulls from dancers' own personal experiences and opinions on how tough it is and how they cope. The module 3 handbook mentions that the artefact can be a product shown to potential employers of its purpose. If directors were more aware too, this could be beneficial for both dancers, directors regarding support and communication, where a lack of these attributes can create adversities to be trickier to overcome.
