However, due to the decrease in the number of dance forms and inheritors, the urgency to protect this particular dance form has become imminent. The formations in dance play a crucial role in conveying the meaning of the dance. In this paper, we research 10 ICH dances in Yunnan Province, summarize their characteristics, and propose a dance formation choreography system by voice, FormationCreator. The dance formations are expressed parametrically through voice in our FormationCreator, allowing for a more flexible definition and reproduction of these formations. Our research seeks to offer initial insights and fresh design concepts for the field of virtual choreography.  a979-8-4007-0331-7
