Although I put this as part of a response to another post of Panthu's (it sort of came out stream of conciousness), the more I think about it the more I like the idea, and the more I think that technically/programically it should be well within the developer's capabilities.
So, I wanted to start a thread to get other people's thoughts, ideas, and comments. Here it is...
A track I think would be fun for dancers would bea real Choreographer (and a similar Composer for musicians, but being a dancer I'll just talk about that) that could design dances that could then be sold/traded/taught to other dancers. I have already mentioned in another post I think it would be neat if they added movement commands for dancers such as /spin, or /raiseHand, or /kick. If they also had a few pre-made large scale moves, a choreagrapher could put them together into a new dance. I guess in the current mechanics they would make a Deed or Schematic for that dance. Other dancers could then get the schematic and perform that dance. At higher levels, choreographers could create schematics that affected multiple dancers; in effect creating a stage show. Gestures and moves that a performer could do would be based on their Dance Knowledge (and Dance Techniques) so not everyone could perform a certain dance--it would be beyond their ability until they gained skill. Perhaps at the Master level, Choreographer and Composer would merge, allowing a Master to create an entire stage show with dance, music, lights, everything. A dance troupe would then just need to purchase/trade for that schematic and have a show to put on.
