THE MARKETING GUYS — EP. 4
“Pony” is a playful cowboy routine revealing a softer side of the Marketing Guys through rodeo-inspired movement and character-driven choreography.
CHOREOGRAPHY
Choreography and performer coaching for three routines with the Marketing Guys and one with the Car Dealers on Seven’s televised dance competition.
Working from creative treatments by The Squared Division, I developed the choreography, shaped the performance narrative and coached the teams through rehearsals. Movement was adapted to the performers’ abilities, with a focus on timing, synchronisation and delivery under tight production turnarounds.
GRAND FINAL
For the Grand Final, the Marketing Guys revisited their first routine, originally created by another choreographer. My role was to tighten the performance and make adjustments where needed. The team placed second.
HIP-HOP DANCE
PERFORMANCES
THE MARKETING GUYS — EP. 3
A high-energy battle routine set to “Shots” — LMFAO feat. Lil Jon and “Scream & Shout” — will.i.am feat. Britney Spears, combining multiple hip-hop styles with level changes, flips and tricks. I developed the choreography and rehearsal package, then coached the team on screen.
THE MARKETING GUYS — EP. 2
A comic character routine set to “Get Busy” — Sean Paul and “Turn Down for What” — DJ Snake & Lil Jon, using physical comedy, character work and high-energy choreography to drive the gorilla scenario.
THE CAR DEALERS — EP. 2
A playful sales-floor routine set to “Forget You” — CeeLo Green, built around character-driven choreography and flirtatious physical comedy as two salesmen compete for a customer’s attention.
