Preparations for records & planning everything for major project [Part 2 - Shuffle Dance]

 Shuffle Dance Preparations

Another one type of dance which I chose is shuffle dance. For the first time in my life I saw this dance in videoclip LMFAO ft. Lauren Bennett, GoonRock - Party Rock Anthem (Official Video). I was 14 years old when I started to really practising shuffle dance. Nowadays is kinda normal that a lot of people dance this style, but at this time it was something special. I made another draw of my preparations for recording it. 


I wanted to look like a lot of dancers who recorded their shuffle dance. In my characterization I included the most important things which are related and matching for this style such a special shoes, shorts, long socks and more. In my imagination I created portrait of myself and what should I correct or add to present style of the modern dancers. I increased my look for that performance and I chose to paint myself with specific fluorescent paint. Everything needed to be ordered or prepared on time. 

1. LED Shoes




Mostly, people who are performancing shuffle dance, they are choosing LED shoes to performance with. They can give us special effects with their lights that is irreplaceable. 

2. Long Socks, Shorts & Strips


Like a shuffle dancers, I decided to include black shorts, strips and long socks in my wardrobe for that performance. It looked really nice and fancy matching with the LED shoes. In my records I was changing shoes and socks to see the results, but LED shoes were the best idea for it.

3. Hat & Glasses



Just for completing full set for this dance :)

4. Hoodie


As a last part from clothes, matching with my bodypainting. 

5. Paint for body 

I completed my look with bodypainting. With UV/LED lamp we could actually get special effects for my performance.


 Let's just add everything now:

The results


Everything was matching perfectly. I was really shocked and surprised that every part of my characterization was correctly choosed by myself. Have a hope that you will enjoy my performance with it! :)
