Reactions: Show facial expression in continuity to the choreography and using facial expressions to react to change in situations (getting hit: is it hard hit? or soft hit? are you angry? or surprised. You must apply appropriate reactions and body movement)
Choreography: Requires story to convey a message, add conflict and resolution, so some acting is required to tell the story, non -verbal preferred
Action: An ability to show and understand the action genre, the types of action used and display appropriate acting (e.g action comedy needs to be funny, die -hard action need to look hard hitting, disaster action apocalypse fighting zombies, zombies need to fight like zombies. (Also, ninjas do not do MMA). Action needs to be credible for any genre selected.
Character building: An ability to create a character by non-verbal means and build the character during the choreography (if the stakes are higher audience will love your character more).
