Is there a difference in style or genre of the two pieces? 2. What instruments can you hear in each of the pieces? 3. What is the mood of the music? Is it in a major (happy sounding) or minor (sad sounding) key? 4. What dynamics (changes in volume) are used throughout the piece… is it quiet or loud, and does it change at any point? 5. Can you see any similarities or differences in the way each song is performed by the dancers? .

    SUCCESS STORY Fitbit & Sky ‘Dance Fit’: Helping Fitbit Create Its Own Groove After the success of their ‘Fit in 5’ campaign, Fitbit wanted to create a new and fresh message aligned with their mission statement “to empower and inspire you to live a healthier, more active life”. Partnering with Sky, they brought this message alive with a branded content series called ‘Dance Fit’ starring Kelly Brook and Brendan Cole. Comprised of two series (each of which had six short-form branded content episodes), ‘Dance Fit’ would teach and guide viewers through a ballroom and Latin dance-themed workout with Fitbit’s product at the forefront of the experience. Showcased through TV adverts, sponsorship, product placement and endorsement, Fitbit launched the campaign to coincide with the annual return of Strictly Come Dancing on the BBC and the mania for ballroom dancing; elevating Sky customers’ engagement in the hype, and adding a bit of fun and movement to their TV viewing. Challenge While health can be serious business, Fitbit felt it didn’t have to be, as they believe “you’re more likely to reach your goals if you’re encouraged to have fun, smile, and feel empowered along the way”. So, as a passionate team dedicated to health, fitness and building products that help transform people’s lives, Fitbit wanted to design a fun experience that would bring their product into the homes and lives of viewers seamlessly, and in a way that would help them to achieve their health and fitness goals - whatever they may be. 800k 148k 44k Downloads on the Instagram Twitter views set-top box views Insight The previous partnership between Fitbit and Sky, ‘Fit In 5’, introduced celebrities to home-based gym workouts in a 5-minute ‘bite-sized’ format.
