The prop use, the staging, dance breaks, high energy solos, jazz runs to sets. Maybe im just not seeing what everyone else is seeing. I love SCV’s show, but it’s for the music, not the visual program I love it all. I just think how they fully incorporate the props into the visual production is great. They are just using them as framing tools, for example. I mean BD's prop - Jesus Christ, talk about taking cool to a new level. Last year I really started to love BD. They've become one of my favorites. It's like Star '93. It took me for ever to appreciate them. I'm finally appreciating BD. It's a good place to be. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch out, @xandandl will come out and get you i think we’ll have to agree to disagree on SCV’s visual design, but I do really love SCV’s show as a whole this year Edited July 10, 2018 by Cappybara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NakedEye Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 1 hour ago, Cappybara said: It’s not too scandalous of a thing to say. This isn’t the Gaines drill of old. It’s absolutely nothing like what he did at Cavies. Gaines realized this is a different era in drum corps and he designed it to this era. Or.....he designed it as a larger scale version of the indoor shows he has been doing. That's how it has come across to me, as the movement is often focused on getting people into position to get on and off the props, leaving 60% of the field untouched, and nary a big drill "picture" to be seen. It's a bit jarring after everyone was so gaga over the huge Weber drill last year. Bloo and BD still do big, expansive sets, as well as prop utilization, so it's really an apples/oranges thing at the moment. Personally, I like a healthy dose of the big stuff, because with a 100 yard stage, it's great to sit there and have this larger-than-life production come at you from all directions and distances. Ultimately, the judges will decide which approach is creating the most effect and who is best executing that approach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are people who want to believe the Easter Bunny is real. Vegas has them at very similar odds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you mean, maybe for both tempo and build even though it don't bother me, i think it's fine the way it is, but i also think it can improve a little afford with more time as much to sizzle up to a boil (Climax). But i would't say it's rushed, It don't feel rush to me personally, i would rather say give it little more time, it's really enjoyable.
