Your video was great! I love how you incorporated dancing clips to show the viewer what voguing actually is and your commentary clips transition smoothly. How do people "nonverbally communicate" (as mentioned in one of the commentary clips) with each other?
People can nonverbally communicate through dancing and through music. People dance and create music to express themselves, and this speaks to other people without having to use use words.
I really liked your project! The theme went perfectly with the background information and the videos of actual vogueing seemed critical to me in explaining what vogueing actually is. Do you know who originally started vogueing?
It is hard to trace it back specifically however Madonna was the first celebrity to really bring attention to it. It became a lot more popular after her song Vogue was released.
This is an amazing video. The dance clips, the music, and the pictures were absolutely perfect. Very well done. To go along with anna's comment does each different element of vogueing represent something? Also besides Madonna, has any other celebrity incorporated vogueing into their stage productions?
Each element of Voguing does not represent something different; however, every element is supposed to create confidence and be a form of expression. As for celebrities, I can't find any other celebrity that has truly incorporated Voguing into their careers. Madonna was the only one to specifically create a song about it.
I really like your video. The background music, the pictures and the voice matched with each other perfectly. And the video clearly introduced what vogueing is and how vogueing influences people's life. Do you will try this type of dance? Do you think that more and more people would like to try vogueing in future? Why?
I have actually thought about trying to Vogue, it seems really fun! Also, I do think that it is a growing culture. With more people becoming more accepting, I believe the LGBT community is going to be able to express themselves more freely in the future because of our changing society.
