246 Don't Underestimate Your Dad About Choreography (1/2)
After "Longing for Life" is finalized, the specific preparatory work will be coordinated and planned by Gu Baojun after his resignation. There is no need for Yang Han, the big boss, to do it himself. Of course, there is no need for Yang Ruoyi, the little girl, to worry about this matter.
What she needs to worry about is actually the December Culture and Arts Festival of their Xiguan No. 2 Middle School.
The two solo performances she performed were okay, but the one that was more urgent and difficult to handle was a dance competition in which her sophomore (ninth) grade class organized several girls to participate on stage together.
Yang Ruoyi had to find the right music and choreography early. After all, it would take her nearly a week to rehearse a dance by herself, not to mention a group of classmates who had no dancing talent and no dancing skills!
"I not only have to finalize this dance song, but also teach everyone how to learn this dance and take them to rehearse together." During the break from filming the new song MV, Yang Ruoyi chatted with Gou Manling, her dance master.
"Isn't it easy to find dance music? There are a lot of popular dance music on the Internet." Gou Manling thought that Yang Ruoyi was a little too worried at first, "If you just look for a song, you can see a lot of related choreography, and there are also people who will teach you how to dance.
video.”
"I know, Feifei told me that before." Yang Ruoyi said with a wry smile, "Later, I took the dance music video I found to school and watched it with my classmates. They all said it was difficult, so I tried to learn a physical education lesson.
I took the class, but the result was that I was quite dissatisfied because I always felt that my limbs couldn’t keep up with my head, my hands and feet were uncoordinated, and I couldn’t dance well at all!”
"Then you should find a dance song with a slower tempo, which may be easier to learn." Gou Manling nodded gently and said, "I understand, after all, not everyone is like you, and you are quite talented in learning to dance."
"Where do I have talent? My foundation is very poor. Now I seem to be able to dance a little bit, but in fact it is all accumulated through a lot of practice." Yang Ruoyi said embarrassedly.
"The key is that you can learn a dance with hard work in a short period of time, but others can't. Their hand and foot coordination is much worse than yours!" Gou Manling understood what kind of predicament Yang Ruoyi was in.
"Yes, that's why I want to ask Master for your help to think about it. You have danced a lot. Do you think there are any songs and dances that are more suitable for our situation?" Yang Ruoyi looked at her with eager eyes.
Follow the master.
"Your classmates will definitely not be able to learn the ones I dance. The simplest ones are difficult for them!" Gou Manling shook her head, "But I have a recommendation. Isn't square dancing very popular now? You can do it.
Consider going in the direction of square dancing.”
"It's like "Above the Moon" written by your father for Cumin Zanthoxylum bungeanum. Didn't he also choreograph a square dance for this song? It's so fun!" Gou Manling said with a smile.
"Square dancing is not very good, they think it is only liked by their parents, or even their grandparents' generation." Yang Ruoyi said hesitantly, "They said before that they wanted to dance a more cheerful but simple dance.
"
"I don't want to use square dancing, that's a bit picky..." Gou Manling was speechless.
"Over the Moon" was a favorite song of the grandparents' generation when it came out. What is the mentality of these young people?
Yang Ruoyi smiled helplessly, there was nothing she could do against her classmates.
But to be honest, if Yang Ruoyi didn't know how to appreciate other songs from a musical perspective, she probably wouldn't like those slow-paced songs either, because they feel too old-fashioned.
Young people should listen to some songs that are full of vitality and follow the trend of the times!
"You need to think hard about this. How about I make one up for you? Find a slow-tempo song, or your dad's song." Gou Manling said.
"What's my song?" Yang Han came over to visit the place where the MV was shot. He saw his daughter and her friends discussing happily, so he walked over with a smile.
"Dad, no, I'm talking about our class participating in a dance competition and choreographing..." Yang Ruoyi said to her father with some embarrassment.
"I want to be more energetic, and I also want the choreography to be good..." Yang Ruoyi said a little incoherently, and Yang Han summed it up with a smile.
"No, it's simple. Only by being simpler can everyone learn it well!" Yang Ruoyi explained.
"That's not difficult. Dad can think of one for you!" Yang Han said with a smile.
"Dad, can you really choreograph?" Yang Ruoyi asked in surprise.
"It's not that I know how to do it, but I still know it a little bit!" Yang Han said with a smile.
Choreography is really not Yang Han's area of expertise. Even his dancing is only the Three-Legged Cat Kungfu. He only received a period of intensive training before his debut on earth. If he really tried to use it, he would definitely not be able to get on the stage.
But before Yang Han traveled through time, he was just a young man. He also used a certain channel, and was even asked by the company to shoot some short videos!
On a certain music track, Yang Han still knows which songs are extremely popular, and which old songs have become popular again because of their choreography!
"Let me show you all!" Yang Han couldn't let his daughter underestimate him. He waved his hand and asked Yang Ruoyi and Gou Manling to step back to make some space for him.
"Dad, you really want to dance! It won't be a square dance, right?" Yang Ruoyi still felt a little unbelievable. Her father usually lay down like a salted fish every day, and she didn't think he could choreograph at all.
Even the matter of square dancing has nothing to do with his father. Even though Yang Han had previously choreographed a square dance from "Above the Moon", the behind-the-scenes video was widely circulated on the Internet. But Yang Ruoyi thought it was accidental, because her father usually
I didn’t even dance with those grandpas and grandmas in the village square!
Unless, he goes to school secretly while he is in class...
But this possibility is very low. Why would my father secretly dance in the square with his grandma?
The excitement here also attracted the attention of the other girls in the Wind Girl group.
"What is Teacher Yang doing?" Zhu Menglei came over to watch with everyone, and she asked Lin Qiuxun curiously.
"He said he wanted to choreograph Yiyi and their school's performance." Lin Qiuxun said with a smile.
This girl looked excited. I don’t know if she was looking forward to Yang Han’s performance, or she was excited because she had the chance to see Yang Han make a fool of herself...
Even the staff who were filming the MV looked around curiously, and the photographer thought it might be a good behind-the-scenes material, so he turned the camera around.
"Three, two, one, go!" Yang Han shouted rhythmically to himself.
Then, he put his two forearms together, like a flower, opened his palms to support his big face, walked up and down together in a crab step, and sang: "The most beautiful flower in the prairie, the fiery red one."
Sarilang, I dreamed that the end of the world was filled with the fragrance of flowers..."
Yes, Yang Han danced a certain music dance from the once popular "The Red Sarilang"!
Not to mention whether he danced well or not, anyway, he turned around, walked like a crab, put his hands on his hips, and shrugged his shoulders. This action really made many onlookers laugh.
stand up.
Lin Qiuxun smiled the most exaggeratedly. She leaned directly on Su Qianyu, swaying with laughter.
What is this!
so fun!
"Do you want to use this?" Yang Han just sang the previous part, and when he saw Yang Ruoyi smiling there, he asked with a smile.
Before Yang Ruoyi could answer, Gou Manling next to her said: "Teacher Yang, is there anything else? Yiyi said just now that she didn't really want a song like this. It felt a bit like "Above the Moon", both of which were more...
…It’s not suitable for their students to dance.”
"I don't like this! Oh, yes, just now you said you wanted to be more energetic. This folk song does sound a bit old." Yang Han didn't care, he still had many, many choices.
"Hey, I know!" Yang Han laughed, "There is a song that is definitely suitable for Yiyi and other students, but I have to go back and make its accompaniment. Then... Yan Ling, you have been a choreographer before
Right? I will teach you then, and you can help me figure out the choreography of that song and consider the effect on the stage!"
