Motif Description

From Free net encyclopedia

Motifs Description is a subset of Labanotation sharing a common lexis. The main difference between the two forms is the type of information they record.

Labanotation: Detailed description of movement so it may be reproduced exactly as it was performed or conceived.
Motif Description: depicts the most important elements, the essential aspects of the movement sequence.

Motif Description is often used as an alternative to Labanotation when information needs to be written down quickly.
