So!
I've been thinking about this project for quite some time, and now I think I might have just enough time to complete an initial version, so here goes!
The idea is to have a tool to aid in making choreography diagrams. The main issue without Choreodot is:
- If you draw by hand, maintaining the diagrams is a pain
- If you draw with some vector software, the initial diagrams are a pain to make
So my plan is to solve this problem by making a tool that will allow for the following:
- Have predefined dancer formations
- Use vector graphics for easy transformation and scaling
- Allow for easy modification of number of dancers
- Have at least semi-automatic transitions between formations (like drawing in arrows)
- Export to PDF and GIF
- Easy to use so any choreographer who has basic computer skills can wield it to his/her benefit.
yOSH!
