About Me



Hi, my names Sian Dunmore, 22, based in Essex,
 I have recently graduated from South Essex College where I gained my level 5 diploma in Performance. This blog will follow my journey this year at Middlesex University where I am currently on the BAPP ACI course to complete my degree. I am a dancer and performer who is eager to learn and develop my knowledge and skills within the creative industry, meeting new people who share my passions. My interests include dancing, choreographing, fitness, aerial hoop, silks and rope. I'm looking forward to developing my creative abilities on this course.

What is my inquiry? What is my practice? How do they link? Why are these questions raised for me?

What is my inquiry? What is my practice? How do they link? Why are these questions raised for me? My inquiry topic is about ‘What Dance jobs and opportunities are available in the Performing Arts industry and the key factors which can impact employment ’. As my practice currently revolves around dance and performance mainly, and I am now at that point within my practice after my college training where I am auditioning for dance jobs and looking for dance opportunities. My topic links well with my practice as I always ask myself what dance jobs are available within the performing arts industry ? as I want to know what I am interested in applying and auditioning for.

My 1 to 1 Skype, 9th Feb 2019

Before the skype call I had made a list of possible inquiry topics for module 2 by using my mind maps from the first module and finding out what areas were bare and what I had an interest in finding out more about, that could help me develop my practice. After sharing these ideas with Adesola it became apparent that my topics were all to do with the dance industry, finding a job and what to expect.

My Commercial Industry Day Experience Recently I had the opportunity to attend an industry day at Base Dance Studio in London. This day consisted of 4 commercial classes all 1.5hrs long taught by 4 different teachers. Liam Lunniss, Josh Wharmby, Lisa Spencer & Josh Pilmore. These teachers are well known for their choreography and abilities to dance and have had experience within the dance industry and still are working within the dance industry. Along with these 4 classes we also had a Q&A session at the end of the day with agency Simon & How associates, where we are able to ask questions about their agency and the industry. Upon arrival at the studio we were welcomed and needed to sign in our names and make sure we had emailed our headshots and CV to the email address stated. I thought this was such a good idea as the agency were watching our final class so it gave us the opportunity to be spotted and having our CV and headshots alre...
