What is the Workshop?  The Workshop is a an interactive business tool used by top educators to provide their services using web technologies powered by MyBandStaff.com.  Take look at it from a conceptual stanpoint.  I plan on building this as a separate site. Please excuse the rough examaples. Some things have changed.  We don't call everyone judges anymore.  We call them consultants.  What questions do you have?

What do you remember from band camp? 

Marching Band Drill Design is the orchestrated composition of elements in a marching band show.  The drill will designate a specific point in space and time for each performer to be.  Putting a strong marching band drill design is a challenging task with many components.  For a band to be successful, a marching band drill design must be tailored to fit the bands specific strengths and weaknesses.  From music to marching, everything must be considered before programming can take place.

Marching band drill uses a variety of techniques that are used for desired effects.

Band Drill can be designed with lots of negative space between individual performers; this will be a softer and lighter effect.  Closing down your interval spaces can bring emphasis and have a stronger appearance.  Your band can perform a scatter drill and create lots of liquid fluid motion with varying speeds.

Marching band drill uses geometric shapes such as lines, circles and parade style blocks to develop the overall drill design.  Any combination of these can produce different textures and look to be used in the overall programing.

In order to connect the creative ideas transitions are used.  Transitions will tie the ideas together creating a smooth consistency and flow.

A strong marching band drill design is a seamless presentation with a good sense of pacing and planned effects.

A strong marching band drill design will provide musicians with point to point travel and can be optimized based on their musical responsibilities.  A well designed drill sets the stage for the music.  The drill is designed so that the performer's point to point motion does not hindure the musical excellence demanded by the musical score.  Holding in place and taking smaller steps, or any combination thereof are suitable choices.  Placement on the field is considered in an effort to maintain a consistent meter, intonation , and coordination.

Design competencies such as balance, texture, weight, and speed are explored in an effort to provide dynamic and expressive movements that speak the musical lines in the music.
