Choreo Notes
 
Format and Structure


Choreo Notes are synchronized to music and are linked to the dance counts. Choreographers open their music in Dance Designer, add Dance Counts to the music with one press of a button, select their count style preference and begin entering notes.

Choreo Notes are in a spreadsheet cell type of format with a row of notes for every dance count. The rows are divided into categories for the different details of motion. Choreographers may use 1, 2 or all of the categories depending on the detail they need. Selecting a Style Palette will allow the categories to auto-populate with the vocabulary of their choice to make notation faster and easier.

Categories

                            musical bars, any type of information.
