Compare a Te Ao Haka performance and another performance
In this external exam standard, you watch two performances — one must be a Te Ao Haka performance (like kapa haka), and the other can be either another Te Ao Haka performance or a performance from a completely different art form (like dance or theatre). You compare the two by looking at specific elements such as tempo, dynamics, voice, characterisation, and point of view, and you write about how those elements are used in each performance and what makes them similar or different.
You identify a range of elements in both performances and describe how they appear in each one. You point out what is similar and what is different between the two performances.
You go further than just describing — you explain the similarities and differences. You make clear why the elements are used differently or similarly and what that means for each performance.
You evaluate the impact of the elements in each performance. This means you make judgements about how effectively the elements work, what effect they create for the audience, and what that tells us about each performance as a whole.
