We developed an interactive system, “Web3D Dance Composer (WDC),” which allows users to create dance choreographies by using a dance motion data archive and simulate them with 3DCG animation. In this research, we conducted two evaluation experiments on the choreographic creation of contemporary dance to evaluate the capacity of the WDC as a dance creation support system. First, we conducted an experiment on choreographic creation for a professional choreographer and proved the usability of the system. Second, we conducted an experiment on training students to create choreography. The results of an evaluation by eight students confirmed that the WDC has the usability and potentiality for producing unpredictable movements and aiding in the learning of a new choreographic process.
