*claps* that was a nice act~!!

thank you, thank you, I'm here till thursday

Aww, I didn't know you switched teams Carzee. I hope you aren't missing the gypsy life too much!

one hour and twenty minutes till round two. am I correct?

Yup, from the time you posted, 1 hour and 20 minutes.

TASKS UP NOW!

I am doing tasks one of Backstage Assignments and three of Promotion Strategies

Remember,worry promotion strategy first.
I can do promotion strategy #6 and backstage assignment #8. I need all team member input in this.

Quote:

8. The stage set-up is done! It’s chill time. Find out from all your team mates what their favorite hobbies or past-times are (being on Menewsha does not count). Make a list of each team member’s name, their hobby, and a brief 50 word description of that hobby (for example, if they like to sky-dive, where do they like to dive, and what is important to make sure they don’t go splat?)

This time I can do them fine, I'm a writer mostly, not an artist. But I enjoy drawing. After last time's fail at uploading pictures however, I will stick to my strengths.

@ Siti : I read, I've been reading since I was young and it is a way to escape into the fantasy realms and other peoples' lives. It passes time and helps to escape from everyday life. My favourite genre is a sci-fi/fantasy cross. But I do enjoy a bit of romantic comedy in book form

I've done all I could tonight. I'll wake up early tomorrow to help with what I can.

Still no word from Facade or omnomnom ]:

Thanks for your hard work guys! <3

See you when you wake up!

Yup~ no word from them. I'm worried that assignment #8 can't be done. But anyway, somebody HAVE to do B.A. #2 it worth the most. I can't though. And now is the time for me to hit the hay. Bye~

*wanders in rubbing eyes tiredly and hair amess* ..........Good morning, Jesters...*yawn* My team's still sleeping. :gonk:

i am here! don't know what i can do, but i am still here!

*swabs belly's arm with rubbing alcohol and get's the caffeine i.v. ready*

Give it to me baby! I'm ready!

*inserts the i.v.* now we're rollin!!!

AHhhh.. Okay, I have a few errands to run this morning but I'm trying to look at the list of tasks before I go so I can think on the move.

Backstage Assignments:

Quote:

ROUND 2 (7am--7pm CST, July 13): Setting the Stage

1.Choose an area to set up the stage. Is it next to a river (for audience members to jump into in case the fire breathing act goes wrong), a bakery (for consecutive snack-breaks throughout the day), on a hill (so people will buy drinks from you after having to walk up it)? Now draw the area and give a brief 200 word description of why you chose it. <- DONE & Submitted by carzeebear
Worth $30.

2.Build a model of the stage out of household items. Make sure to take into account a space for the audience to stand\sit. Make the stage as elaborate as you wish, just make sure that it’s recognizable as a stage. Take a photo of it when it’s built to your liking.
Worth $40.

3. Your team members’ obligations are pulling them ever farther away from planning the show, but you are determined for preparations to continue. Describe in 200 words how you would harmlessly sabotage (paradox anyone?) their jobs\household chore-doing\etc. in order to get them back to planning.

4. The company you ordered your stage decorations from shipped you the wrong ones… That’s the last time you’ll order from them. Because of your team’s budget, you now have to make your own decorations. Draw 3 decorations that you will put up on your stage.
Worth $20.

5. You want your street circus’ planning to be a secret from the other teams. For this reason, you construct a super-secret hide-away base! (what happened to the budget?) Draw a picture of what the base looks like, and point out 3 major features of the base that serve to up its secret-ness.
Worth $20.

6. Oh no! Another team has discovered your super-secret base, despite all your attempts to keep it… well, secret. Quick, choose one of your team members to act as decoy while the rest of you run, draw the other team away, just plain kick them out, etc. Write 100 words of who you choose, why, and how they get rid of the other team.

7. Phew! The other team has gone and your team can get back to planning. Go on YouTube and find 3 songs to play during your street show (ex. for the opening act, grand finale, etc). Link to the songs when you submit them, and in 200 words tell why you chose those songs for those acts.

8. The stage set-up is done! It’s chill time. Find out from all your team mates what their favorite hobbies or past-times are (being on Menewsha does not count). Make a list of each team member’s name, their hobby, and a brief 50 word description of that hobby (for example, if they like to sky-dive, where do they like to dive, and what is important to make sure they don’t go splat?) <- Siti working on this

so we just pic from what's left?
what must every person do?

edit: thanks for the list of stuffs, belly!

We each get to choose one Backstage assignment to do and submit on our own. Since we aren't running with a full team it would be smart to choose the ones worth the most $$. Are you able to draw/photograph/scan stuff? (it doesn't have to be good, lol)

i can photograph stuff, yes... and i can draw something and take a picture of it, or draw it (really badly, mind you) on paint lol

Okay, cool! then just choose whichever one of those you feel like doing. =)

Whoever does #2 needs to model it with Carzee's entry in mind - she designed our rooftop stage:

Quote:

This year the jesters have decided on a novel approach to stage set up. We have built our stage on the roof of a skyscraper.

This gives us advantages such as easily accessible power for our acts requiring electrickery, and the fact that the skyscraper is home to the largest supply of cream pie in the whole world doesn’t go amiss either.

Of course there are stairs and elevators to think about. For those visitors who endured climbing the many flights of stairs to our show, we are selling refreshments at the door, and of course, for those who were lazy and took the elevator, we always have spare cream pies.

The height of the building is also advantageous to the classic slapstick routine of pretending to fall off of something, and recover balance. It adds drama when the object the jester is to be “falling” off is twenty stories high. Of course, this does not mean that that is our biggest gag. I am merely providing an example of the benefits of this location.

The extra revenue collected from the sale of refreshments will be put towards a bigger and better show and stage next year.

*takes a bow*

number two is the stage out of household items?

and i'm a little unclear as to what i am looking at... *goes to find original post*

Sorry, I added the text now. If you want to do that one that would rock as it's worth the most. I'll be in and out for the next hour or so ~ back in a bit

ah yes i found it too!
oooh! she drew the building from the perspective of looking it from the outside... i thought it was looking down on it like a bird's eye view and i was really confused!
so i just have to make it at the top of a building!

okie then... i'll try to figure something out!

----------

have a good time errand running, belly! laters!!

----------

for the backstage i will do #2 (make the stage out of home things) and for the promotion i'll do #7 (make a meal for a fast food company)
i don't think anyone has claimed these yet... if so just let me know!
