Band is a word that is set to describe a group of people who are joined together by a common purpose. But nowadays, this has been synonymous to the world of music as well. And it is also connected with the word entertainment as music provides a great deal of amusement to people and to the ones giving it. These people are sometimes the main event but other times, they are just part of the show.
Many people get confused when they hear about bands and music. This is because there are also different types. There are those that mainly sings, others have to be carrying their own instruments. Then there are just some who are marching with drums and bugles with them. Out of all the three, people find it less appealing to watch a marching band show. If you are a director, you should do your best to showcase a good performance.
There are not many marching groups in the world that are famous. Most of these groups are made up of high school kids. But when they do gain recognition, they are given opportunities to perform for a bigger crowd. And if you want the band to reach the same status, you have to step up your game.
People have different preferences. And today, the society shifted their gaze on things that are more colorful and alive. That is why marching people do not get the recognition they deserve most of the time. Little does the world know that to be effective in this craft, you need to be specific and precise all the time. You also have to be coordinated. And when there are many of you, this can be quite hard to do.
Most important thing to note is the weakness and strengths of each member. It is important that the entire group can move in unison. And acknowledging the differences of each person would make it easier to do so. This will also make it easier for you to determine which people would be perfect for specific parts.
Concept is how you build a whole performance. Without it, you would be all over the place. And worse, people would not have a chance to know and understand what you are trying to do, so they would not appreciate it as well. Brainstorm with the rest of the team to come up with the best idea possible. Because if it is just you, this would be very hard.
If you want to achieve the best formations, you would need to lay it down in the plan. For others, it is known as the blueprint of their performance. Through this, others can easily see where they are positioned and how they should move to get to where they are supposed to go for the next formations. It should be better if you include the tiniest details for it.
There are transitions and these happens when they have to change formation. It is important that you change your formation every now and then. This means that the transition would have to be fast. Experts say that it should be lesser than one minute to build the anticipation of the crowd.
Always remember that even if you have good formations and plans, this will be useless without the perfect music. If you want to make sure that it is a success, you might look into it as well. This is what most directors forget.
