I started my practical rehearsal process by using this video as a background a stimulus to help drive and inform my movements, I feel its easier and a lot more affective to use something like this related to the overall subject rather than just a piece of music.

As I was devising I found that a lot of what is said in the video actually does relate back to some of the points I am trying to make in my piece. In particular, it touches on different past movements of people - this relates to the text I found explaining all the different moments in history in which Syria played refugee to those fleeing. It also touches on after the break up of Yugoslavia that Britain took in over 84,000 asylum seekers in 2002, and yet now the government are only talking about letting a tiny percentage of that in.

This video also explores how the crisis has affected other European countries - not just Britain as I think it's very important for us to remember that we're all in this together and we, as a mainly privileged continent, are obliged to help those in need.
