Team,

Following are the (5)submitted story treatments. Thanks to all who submitted such great ideas.

Things to note: You are asked to vote on (2) concepts. Note that the show will be similar in scope to others we have done. You are asked to vote on the story elements and the fun of what we think we can make from it. The selected story will be built into that scope in whatever way you may see that it is missing.

Your instructions are as follows: Read the treatments and vote on two. We will provide you ballots in the comming weeks.

Dance matrix 12-4-07

Wed, 05 Dec 2007 07:42:24 -0700

Team,

This is a new dance matrix reflecting the changes and updates in personnel etc. This is by no meanse the "set in stone" version. It will adjust as needs present themselves. Although as the dances are set, changes will reduce.

Some highlights: Donna, Alice, and Angelica have been removed, Lynn and Dan have been added. The "Act 1 recap" has been removed in favor of a one couple solo. (Thanks for taking that on!!) the Hip Hop number has been removed as well.

Please look it over and be sure that you have (or have not) been effected.

My best to you all,
-Mike

Studio Swing Choreography

Tue, 20 Nov 2007 22:13:18 -0700

Studio swingers ;-) Attached is the choreography for the Studio Swing routine. To look it over a cursory understanding of Microsoft excel helps. When you open it you will see tabs across the bottom of the sheet. The left most tab is the choreography spelled out, reading left to right: "who" is exactly that, who is in the routine, "Line prep" is my series of pictures that spell out the second half of the routine, "Tableau 1" is the representation of the framed pose scenario, "Tableau 2" is a picture of the ending pose.

Shoot me an email or call if there is any question.

Showcase dance matrix

Sun, 21 Oct 2007 22:06:57 -0700

I am proud to present the dance matrix for our 2008 showcase "Take the Floor & Dance". It is an attached excel spreadsheet. Following are somethings to consider when you look at it.

1) This is a two sheet workbook. The first sheet is the matrix showing the dances and descriptions of each. The second sheet is the "who's in what" showing who is selected to dance in each routine.

2) If there is question, comments, or concern about what you see please talk to Monique or myself. You were selected for these dances because we know you will be great.

3) Note the titles of the dances shown above. A schedule will be developed using dance abbreviations so note what the names are so when you look at the schedule.

4) I will bring hard copies to practice on October 24th.

5) As the process toward the show moves forward there are bound to be changes. We are still looking for men. The matrix will be updated when or if changes occur.

We're going to be great!!!

-Mike
