WRITTEN ASSIGNMENT
Dave Scott Dave Scott has danced his way through thick, he . He now has an all-round career in being a performer, choreographing dances, music videos, movies, television shows, and commercials. Dave has filmed several tasks for both film and television. He was one of the main choreographers in So You think You Can Dance on FOX, Bravo’s Step It Up & Dance and Step Up 3D. Dave has also done his wonderful choreography in the cinemas like in the horror movie Prom Night, Maid of Honour starring Patrick Dempsey, and the recent release Dance Flick with the Wayans Brothers. No foreigner to film successes, Dave’s Disney movie, Step Up 2 the Streets, made over $118 million worldwide. His earlier project, Sony Pictures’ Stomp the Yard, was at number one for two weeks in a row at the box office and it made over $136 million worldwide. You Got Served (2004) won him the 10th Annual Choreography Award for Best Choreography in a feature film, and featured the artist B2K. In addition, Scott was the key ingredient behind the success of B2K, giving them their name, style and choreography. In just two years, B2K scored two platinum albums and headlined the sold-out tours nationwide which Dave contributed to greatly. Dave is a great choreographer and dancer because he is original, his moves aren’t copied from anybody and his moves are all his own. Dave has this certain style that is very “swag” he is cool calm and collected but fierce and strong at the same time. This gives him a very casual feel, which is what I like about his performances. His dances are always un-expected and you can always rely on him to start a new dance

    "I'll create the putter, you create the stroke, together we'll make magic," a quote Scotty Cameron proclaims, once unattainable to golfers alike regarding putters (2012 Design & Concept of Go - Lo - M3). Nevertheless, the rise of the Golfing world's Van Gogh aroused the golf community. Specifically, Scotty Cameron never invented the putter, oh no, he constructed better putters, changing the quality of putters, and all golf clubs for eternity. Through adopting the finest materials money had to buy, hand milling, bending, welding, and customization of every detail including the paint, his creations spiraled. In addition, his success showed no stopping signs, rolling into a legacy of its own. When a Scotty Cameron putter awakens, every one is…

    Bob Fosse

    • 5 Pages

    The legendary Bob Fosse began dancing at a very young age. He began at burlesque shows and watching strippers at the strip clubs nearby. He always saw himself living a life of dance and fame, so he moved to New York where his career took off. He went from choreographing small parts, so having his own Broadway shows and movies. The different stages in his life led him to some many ups and downs, but that did not stop him from creating more masterpieces. Bob Fosse won multiple awards for his movies and plays, and it is all in thanks to hardships that helped him create the Bob Fosse dance style. Not many people could be said to have transformed the history of musical theater. The impact that Fosse had on the industry can still be felt today. Bob Fosse formed his career and dance style from his life. While Fosse had a very particular style, it would not have grown into what it is now if it weren’t for the ups and downs of his life. Because Fosse was born into a vaudevillian family, naturally he was meant to be in the show business. He used his dancing growing up, not to only for fun, but to gain attention from friends and family. From there he moved on to bigger and better things, such as choreographing at the young age of 13 and then first choreographing for a movie at the age of 26. The physical limitations that he had related him more with the eccentric dancers of the 1930’s and 40’s.Once he became popular in the business, Fosse started experimenting with drugs and practicing promiscuity. During this time, his style went from a more high energy dance, to a sexier, burlesque style. Once this style blew up, Fosse was on a roll, creating plays and even winning awards for his work. Fosse’s interest in dance influenced all of his work, and he used that interest to become involved in every aspect of stage and film production. In this research, one will learn how Fosse’s recognizable dance style came to be.…

    In the first scene of the movie Scott is shown dancing in competition with his partner Liz. When he stumbles into a difficult situation he abruptly resorts to improvised “non-federation” dance moves, revealing the freedom of movement that Scott so greatly desires. The “flashy, crowd pleasing” steps shocks and disappoints Scott’s partner, Barry Fife the president, and his mother who dramatically states “did I fail him as a mother?” This dialogue is used to create satire and humour to show the audience just how seriously ballroom dancing is taken by…
