For my remix idea I wanted to choreograph a dance piece. My main intent of the piece is to tell a love story between Harry and Ginny, Ron and Hermione. My original idea is choreograph the struggle between friendship and love.
For this project I would need to cast 2 males and 2 females dancers. However, due to scheduling I am not able to get dancers and hold rehearsals. I still need to find music. For costumes I would design each and personalize it.
I have a few ideas about what to do for my “re-mix” activity, and I’m not sure which one I want to do as of right now. If any of you guys have any ideas, let me know!
-I would write a quick flash fiction about Hermione while she was a little girl. I would focus on the weird and magical things that would happen to her (think of how Harry was able to talk to snakes and do other unexplainable things). Her parents, being Muggles, would probably struggle understanding what was happening to their daughter, so that would be another point I would focus on.
-I would write another flash fiction piece, but I would create an American wizarding school in a poor urban area, like in Philadelphia or Detroit. My focus would be on the mostly African American and Latino student population, facing similar problems many Muggle urban public schools are facing today (underfunded, struggles with hiring quality teachers, etc.).
-Ever since I was a little kid, I have been obsessed with Greek gods and goddesses, and I know many of the myths and individual gods in Greek mythology. I would like to write a flash fiction piece, possibly taking place in ancient Greece, and put a wizarding “twist” to the 12 gods that live on Mt. Olympus.
