Chapter 212: What I Learned From Her
At that time, she looked even more flustered, like a frightened wild beast. Now, she has changed a lot, her dancing shoes have been worn well, and she has gradually become proficient in the use of various props needed for the stage, and she is no longer so panicked when she encounters things, but has a more calm temperament on her body.
This wonderful change often reminds Gray of her in the past, and thinks that she was also very cute at that time. It's just a little regrettable, why was I so indifferent at that time, and I couldn't pack those interesting fragments more carefully in my memory?
Watching this video, Gray felt a special emotion, as if one stone after another was constantly being thrown in the heart lake, causing layers of ripples.
- No matter how her appearance and temperament have changed, she has never changed!
Even in the heart of a devil like Antai, are you willing to try to understand and accept it?
And it's no wonder that she would be so keenly the first to perceive everything she was hiding so well, and if it weren't for that, it wouldn't have begun.
Gray has always felt fortunate about this beginning, no matter where the road leads after that.
The reason why this is so is because she has a very sincere and kind heart, simple to the point that it is as rare as the fresh air in this concrete-lined world.
Moreover, watching this dance that has been "carefully choreographed" with great effort, Gray also has a faint touch.
This time, even she learned something from her choreography!
Speaking of which, her choreography has a lot of flaws, and Gray can point out several problems with any eight beats. However, the dance she weaves with her imagination is raw and sincere, a sincerity that transcends technique and can be felt directly by the audience.
Objectively speaking, the sense of beauty is lacking, and if Gray were to choreograph it, the same theme would have been extremely elaborate and impeccable in terms of aesthetics. However, too much craftsmanship and ingenuity can sometimes weaken the intensity of emotional expression. Shaida's dance is not so beautiful, but it can be easily remembered, and even replayed in the mind for a long time.
That in itself is a success.
Moreover, the knowledge of choreography that she had subtly instilled in her before, the matters that needed special attention, and those basic mistakes, she actually didn't make any of them!
Gray felt a sense of pride swell in his chest, and none of his previous accomplishments had made him feel so. There was an urge to yell, "This is my girl!" But I was surprised that I had become unrecognizably shallow and naïve.
Unlike Gray, the first thing Shaida watched was Angela's video, and it felt quite powerful, stable, and absolutely no problem. Then, all her attention was on Layla Aviana.
The first time I watched Aviana's video, Shaida was stunned. Immediately afterward, she looped the video over and over again, watching and watching until she fell into deep thought.
Really...... The gap is still huge!
This dance of Aviana is much more mature than her own dance!
Whether it's the choreography or the performance, it doesn't look like a first-year student can make something, it's very standardized, it's very exquisite, and it can be directly moved to the stage to perform.
And the work I took out is probably far from being put on the stage.
Layla chose Hercules as her perspective, which is a very positive perspective, and the dance is in a style that she rarely performs. Her style is usually very elegant, generous, and feminine, like a noble lady. But in this dance, her dance style becomes very powerful, fierce and tough, like a female warrior of the Amazon.
At a glance, it is clear that this is an epic in praise of warriors. Antey is the son of a god and has the protection and power of a god, while Hercules, although he has the blood of a demigod, is born a mortal. However, the warrior was undaunted by the power of the Son of God, and with his wisdom and courage, he finally defeated Antai.
The dance didn't last long, but Shaida felt like her blood was boiling with Hercules.
It seems that the picture scroll in classical mythology has unfolded in front of me, and the burning fighting spirit and unyielding spirit make people want to put on battle armor and plunge into that fierce battle!
And that's just the video, if it's live, it's going to be even more exciting!
While Shaida was a little frustrated, she also once again had a sincere admiration for Layla Aviana's strength. She must have worked very, very hard, that's why her talent is so well-rounded, and everything she does is so beautiful.
It's true that I'm not as good as her now, but it's definitely not going to be forever!
At the same time, there is also a lot of fighting spirit.
The results of the first round, which everyone cared about, were officially announced seven days after the video was announced.
Shaida finished in 20th place, which was a big surprise to her.
Although I have tried my best, after all, it is the first time to try, and I have experienced many difficulties firsthand. There are almost three grades of students participating in the preliminary selection, and the seniors of the second and third grades are more solid than Xia Ida in terms of experience and technology, so being able to rank more than 20 is already an absolute superordinary.
You know, this time, but no one can help her, it's all on her own blind toss!
This achievement has greatly boosted Shaida's confidence - it turns out that as long as you work hard, it is possible to achieve better results than expected!
Among the first-year students, Angela Fantaxia ranked seventeenth in the preliminary selection, probably because her brother is a choreographer, which is quite good. Julian Hawthorne is ranked nineteenth,Minnie Maha is ranked twenty-second,For first-year students,This is quite a good result,After all, the students of Beidu School Park have a year's harvest,The overall strength is definitely stronger than the senior students。
However, there was one better result, and that was Layla Aviana, who finished ninth in the overall table in the first round and was the only first-year student to finish in the top 10.
The senior students are talking about it – no wonder they all say that this year's freshmen should not be underestimated!
You know, this pre-selected topic should be the weakest link in the first grade, they are inexperienced, and the knowledge of choreography has not been able to learn it thoroughly. Even in this situation, there are still people in the top 20, or even in the top 10, which puts a lot of pressure on the senior students.
I thought that the burden of winning the Shikoku Tournament would definitely fall on the shoulders of the senior students!
Now it seems that this is not necessarily the case, because these energetic little ones are not good at choreography, they are good at dancing, that is, the next round!
