We certainly have our work cut out for us in these next few weeks. Instead of being frustrated with performing, there's a good change that we will be frustrated by something that has been put in place to help us, technology. However, like always I have faith in you guys. WE can do it as long as everyone works hard and does not procrastinate (that much.) The following due dates have been put in place to help you guys stay in track, and help me not be overwhelmed when receiving your videos to edit them.
November 21st: First Monologue Due
November 28th: Second Monologue Due/Emily's Song
November 29th: Where Are You Christmas
December 5th: Sparklejollytwinklejingly/All Hippo Stuff(Arianna)
December 6th: The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year/Ian's Song
December 12th: Boys Song/Girls Song
December 13th: All Emcee Stuff/Izzy's Song/Peace on Earth
If I have forgotten anything on this list please let me know! One more time for good measure, I will go over how you should be filming:
Film Horizontally! Your phone should be the long way, not the tall way.
Have good lighting, white lighting is really good, yellow lighting is not. I want to be able to see your face clearly and nicely.
Make sure you background isn't busy. Maybe you decide to film in front of your Christmas tree, or in front of a Nativity set. Sure! But if not Christmasy, I want your background to be simplistic. Either way I don't want it to distract from you. If you need to, put up a sheet somewhere.
Each section must be recorded all at once, example: The Emcees should have someone read their lines off camera, and then respond to what is being said without stopping the camera. If you mess up, it's okay. Do it again. Do NOT send me a cohesive things in parts. I want one video for each segment or it will not look like a zoom call/virtual call.
You guys are awesome. Love you all.
