Analysis of journalism often focuses on the production of news across various platforms to understand the nature of politics and public debate in the contemporary era. But it is not possible, nor is it necessary, to analyse all emerging forms of journalism in the same way for they usually serve quite different purposes. Music journalism, for example, offers consumer guidance based on the creation and maintenance of a relationship between reader and writer. By focusing on the changing aspects of this relationship, an analysis of music journalism gives us an understanding of the changing nature of media production, media texts and media readerships. Music journalism is dialogue. It is a dialogue produced within particular critical frameworks that speak to different readers of the music press in different ways. These frameworks are continually evolving and reflect the broader social trajectory in which music journalism operates. Importantly, the evolving nature of music journalism reveals much about the changing consumption of popular music. Different types of consumers respond to different types of guidance that employ a variety of critical approaches.

Introduction The Choreographic Workshop provides secondary dance students with the unique opportunity to develop their choreographic skills under the guidance of industry professionals. Led by Artistic Director Shaun Parker and his dancers, the practical workshop introduces choreographic tools and tasks taken from the Company’s production The Yard. Students will experience new ways to generate interesting movement material that can be used for solo, duet and group formations. This process will investigate dramaturgy also. In other words, what can abstract movement say about the human condition? What does the choreography mean? This pack has been designed to provide you with the background information on Shaun Parker & Company and The Yard and will provide an overview of the workshop you will participate in. It will also include additional processes to consider, as well as extra exercises and choreographic ideas that you can work on back at school. 2. Curriculum Links 3.

Its work takes place on the stages of major international festivals as a result of its artistic and dramaturgical rigour but resonates just as strongly in public spaces, regional Australia and among high school students.
