In this study, my ambition is to find new methods for creating dance material, both for a pedagogic and artistic context. The study examines how dancers and spectators experience choreographic dance material that has the intention of conveying a predetermined message and is composed based on photo composition. The survey shows that photocomposition added a way to work choreographically in dance that I have not found in dance composition. The choreographic method based on photo composition has through the phenomenological analysis model shown that it is possible to influence the spectators and dancers experience of a dance material in a predetermined direction. The choreographic method and the results of this study can be useful in several didactic contexts and the method can be useful for both teachers in the creation of dance material for dance classes or material for the stage, but also for students in their own work and creating processes. This study provides methods for creating dance in different contexts, which can be used both in teaching and creative work. Hopefully, this survey and its results can be useful and applicable for other danceteachers in their work.
