My job role for the production part of the dance show was -set design-. I worked with Aimee thompson and victoria Harman
our jobs where to create a set for the show, decorate the hall and the stage filled with things we had created and made ourselves
We created a painted mad hatter, a painted Alice in wonderland, series of playing cards and a giant mushroom along with other little
bits and pieces that we had created. We had to make sure everything that we wanted and had planned to do was ready for the
dance show and ready to put up a few days before. Our job went well as we got everything done that we had originally planned to do.

I was in group 'Marketing and advertising' our job was to promote the show. Our first job role was too design and make the posters to put up around school, after we did the posters we then designed the tickets, we spent a few lessons on these getting them right and making sure they have the correct times and dates, we then printed them out on to card and cut them out one by one as a group. Our last task was designing the programmes for the show for people to buy if they wanted, in these we included all the dances and everyone's names who were taking part in the dance show. The programmes took a while to do and we got them done literally at the last minute but everything was done and organised on time.

My job role in the organising of the dance show was in the marketing team. This meant I had to help advertise the dance show and design and make all the poster, tickets, programmes etc. There were five people in our group, me, Shaunie, Katie, Lucia and Nicola.
Our first job as a group was to design the audition posters. This was done by me and Nicola, but the others put in some ideas. After that me and Nicola went and put them up around the whole school, in the bulletin and on the TV screens. This was completed very quickly which meant the students had plenty of time to see them and choreograph a dance piece.
Next we had to make the dance show posters. Shaunie, Katie and Lucia designed 4 different ones and showed them to the class to see if they all agreed. Then me and Nicola had to put up all the new dance show posters around school, taking down the audition posters as we did so. Unfortunately we realised a mistake on the posters so they had to change it and reprint them all again. Me and Nicola had to run around school taking down the wrong ones and replacing them with the correct ones, luckily this didn't take too long and no one really noticed.
Finally, we had to design the tickets and programmes for the show. Lucia, Katie and Shaunie designed the tickets and sent them to me and Nicola to go to Tim and get them printed onto small pieces of card and then photocopied. While we did this, they designed the programme and found out everyone's names who were taking part in the show so they could be put on it. This was a hard, complicated job so we made a few mistakes, but managed to solve them in the end.

I was in the costume group and my role was to sort out the costumes for our year and help plan them to go with our theme.
First of all I got many ideas of costumes for each of our dances and we discussed with the rest of the dancers whether or not they agreed with them. People complained at many costumes so we just made them simpler such as plain tops, hoodies and leggings. We then went into the drama studio to see what costumes we had and see if we could match them to what we had planned, some of the costumes had to be changed as there were better things which we already had and could have used which would have been more effective. Once again we talked through it with the class and most people agreed.
We then had to go count each of the costumes to make sure there were enough for everyone but we assumed some people would have certain things which they didn't. We made a list of which costumes we as the school would provide and which they had to provide so then they knew what they needed. we also tested the cotumes to make sure they looked affective. I colour coded and made sure it went with the right bit of the theme.
We then had to check everyone sizes and made sure they could have costumes that would fit them, also with that I did everyone costume bags and sorted all the costumes out which everyone would need. In the meetings I had made sure everyone could provide the things that they needed and with them meetings we knew to drop the idea of army boots for Rhythm nation because not everyone had them.
Then on the actual night of the dance show I made sure that everyone was getting changed into the right costume and also after the show we then noticed we should have told everyone to cut and slice their clothes for I was here at home because there was a huge mess.
If I had the chance to do it again I would take chance to make sure everyone is happy with everything and that everything in the costume department is sorted out a long time before the show instead of a couple of days before. I should of started sorting before to give more time for other things to be dealt with.

My role in the dance show was in the technical team.
Firstly in our group we had to write a letter to Tim asking him whether he would be available to do that sound and lighting for the dance show, once he had replied and we knew he could do it. We could then start to plan the lighting and sound for all the dance we had. We had to look at each dance and decide what type of lighting we wanted as we wanted it to create mood or atmosphere.We then made a list of all the dances in running order. After we did this we handed it over to Tim so he could use it on the night of the show.

My job role throughout the dance show was in the finance team with two other people, I feel as though we worked really well as a team as we was able to organise everything with co-ordination.
With the time our group was given we were able to organise ticket prices and our total income of the Dance show. We had meetings with other areas of the dance show to discuss financial issues such as the price of the skirts that the costume area was ordering for one of the sets of chorography. There wasn't a great amount of money spent on the Dance show as many of the costumes was provided or was planned to bring from home. Also the set design was free of charge from Baintons so there was no need to discuss money for that. We organised a year 7 disco but unfortunately there was no tickets sold so we had to cancel the event. We also had a student night on the Wednesday where the tickets were sold as £1.50 to attract more people to attend.
Also during our organisation time we had a meeting with Mr.williman to discuss some possible fundraising ideas for example; cake selling, teacher bunny hop and the Disco. This went real well as we got confirmation to go ahead. Also we had a meeting with Mr.Wardman to get him to ring up Baintons and ask about set, once we got baintons making our set we left it to the set design to arrange where everything was going.
On the blog I made multiple conversations asking other people to do things to help us out. For example I wrote on it asking Beth vowels from the secretary group to write a letter to Mr.Williman to have a confirmation about the Disco and I also wrote on it telling Vicky and Emma Rignall that the video clips was appropriate to the scheduling of the Dances. Then I wrote on it to let everybody know the Year 7 disco was cancelled due to no tickets being sold.
Thank you to everybody in the Dance show teams we had a brilliant outcome and we all was involved. Thank you Miss Hardy and Mrs.Grantham to making this show happen J

My job role was technical team, we had to do the lighting and seating. I mainly worked on the seating arrangement with Charlie Vickers. We had team meetings so everyone got to decide out of three ideas. We had to work with the set design in order to plan the layout and set of the hall where the dance show was performed. I missed a lot of lessons closer to the dance show so i couldn't help Rebecca and Kirstie with the lighting.

My job role for the dance show was costume. Firstly, we had a meeting to draft down how many dances we had and what types of costumes we would want to create for these dances, whilst doing this we sketched some rough ideas to see what they looked like. In this lesson we also jotted down how many people there were in our class and of boys and girls.
The next meeting we had we decided to go to the drama studio and search through the costumes that we already had. By doing this we could see if we had enough of one costume for the number of people in our class for one dance. We also picked out costumes we liked and think would fit with our theme of 'Alice in Wonderland' to give us ideas on what to do for some of the dances.
After doing this we wrote our ideas on the blog to see what peoples responses were, following peoples suggestions we then headed back to the drama studio and collected costumes that we had enough of and put them to a side. The time near the show we spent organising the costumes into bags for everyone in our class and then put names on them so everyone had their own individual bag.

My job role throughout the organising of the show was the finance team. There was three of us in this group and we worked well together. We communicated and listened to what we all had to say and got on with things as a group without many problems.
Within this time we were given the tasks of fundraising, ticket prices and budgets for other groups. Each group didn't really need a high budget. This was because the set from baintons was free of charge and most costumes were either already in school or for each student to buy themselves. This also meant that there wasn't much fundraising needed. We organised a year 7 and 8 disco that was 5 days before the show but it was later cancelled due to no one been aware of it and low ticket sales. The ticket prices were set at £2.50 and a price of £1.50 for students on the Wednesday night to attract more pupils.
During this time we also carried two extra tasks. The first was arranging a meeting with our head teacher, Mr Williman. This was to discuss our different fundraising ideas and get him to confirm that we can go ahead with them. This was needed because some of our ideas included the teachers, such as the teacher gunging so we would need to make sure this was acceptable. The second task we carried out was the baintons idea. Our finance group organised with Mr Wardman to get baintons to do our set for us. Once it was organised, we left it to the set design group.
I think my group also contributed well during the team meetings and did well letting the rest of the class know what we'd been doing in our group and what we had achieved. We also discussed money with the costume team and made sure they had realistic aims and also to know how much more money we would have to raise.
I think each group did well during this time and help to make our show a success. All ideas were creative and helped us make our show unique.

my job role was costume and I did this job with Emma Rignall, Sophie Peyman and Kirsty Moore. Our job was to design all the costumes of the dance show and make sure that they were appropriate for the dance style performed. Another one of our jobs were to take everyone's measurements and sizes so all the costumes we designed and bought would fit everyone perfectly. This was all done at the start of January so we had time to design costumes, get everyone's measurements and so if we ordered anything it would be here on time for the dance show

Our group was made up of five people, we were the marketing team. We were in charge of making and putting up posters and advertising the show around school. We all had different jobs for example I was in charge of making the dance audition posters and putting them up around school. Shaunie, Katie and Lucia made the show posters and me and Shannon put them up around school, we then and to make tickets and we sold the throughout form time, break and lunch.
Overall I think we did well as a group to produce such a large scale show and keep things organised, I enjoyed it very much over the two years and I am glad to have met some nice people.

During the production of the dance show I had the job role of secretary and I worked with Beth Carter and Bethanie Vowles.
My first job as secretary was to write a letter to Mr Williman for conformation of the show and to confirm the dates.
Then I spoke to different groups and asked if they needed any letters sending out.
I went with jodie, emma and dannii to speak to Mr William about fundraising so I could take notes and update everyone with what's happening.
I helped out marketing in my spare time with tickets also I helped Vicky and Jodie paint the set.
I updated the blog with the information from the confirmation letter I recieved from Mr William.
I put the suggestion of making a student night to attract more people on the Wednesday on the blog.
Me, Beth and Bethanie took it in turns to put the minutes on the blog to remind everyone and let Miss Hardy know the decisions we have made.
I also suggested to do a contempary piece to Beyonce- I was here.
Overall I think we did well to keep our group organised and reached our job roles to it full patential. I have enjoyed the past 2 years meeting and working with lots of different people.

During the production process I was part of the sectary group, I wrote a letter to the caretaker to let him know about the information about the dance show, the dates, the amount of people were expecting, how long where thinking it will last. I also wrote minutes on numerous occasions this is where I wrote on a piece of paper everything that was discussed during our meetings and the people that was there and the people that were absent on that day. Then I posted it on the blog so everybody could see what was discussed or if anything they needed to bring to school e.g. clothes. We also put plenty our suggestions during the meetings like our ideas on the clothes or our idea of the settings.

Blog Summary
As part of the Set Design team we had a lot to do and organise:
· First we made a sketch of what our initial plan for the stage was, with the plan done we knew what we needed to organise.
· Then we had a chat with the finance team and they told us Baintons would make our set for free.
· We went to Mr Wardman who has a contact at Baintons and he set up the meeting for us.
· Then me and Aimee went to Baintons and asked them to make us 4 playing cards and 1 mushroom.
· We then started painting the Alice onto a big piece of paper and then we started to paint the Mad Hatter.
· Once the mushrooms and playing cards had arrived we stayed back after school and at dinner times to paint them.
· The day before the show we put the paintings, playing cards and mushroom onto the stage and organised them so they were safe and looked good.
Overall I think that the set design group have done a lot towards the dance show. We communicated with the right groups (e.g. Lighting, costume and finance) and we made sure everything was done. We have been the first group in years to have a proper set, this was important to the group as a whole as we wanted to stand out.

My first job in the finance team was to brainstorm fundraising ideas. We came up with bun sales,gunging teachers and a year 7 disco. Our team had to organize a meeting with Mr Williman to dicuss fundraising ideas and he gave us his full support with whatever ideas we wanted to do.
I helped to print out tickets and posters and to put them up around school for the year 7 disco unfortunately it did not go ahead.

Our group was made up of 5 people and our job role was marketing this meant that we were in charge of making the posters, programmes and tickets and making people aware of the dance show.
Our first job as a group was making the posters for the auditions and the dance show. This was done by me, Lucia and Shaunie it went very well as we didn't have any problems and we were able to get on with the job and get it finished quickly. Once we had finished and printed the poster Nicola and Shannon went and put the posters up around school and put on in the school bulletin.
Me, Lucia and shaunie then designed the ticket however we did have some problems because our first design was too big and we could not re-size them so we had to change the whole design of the tickets, however our second time of designing the tickets was more successful and this was the design that we went with. Once we printed the tickets me, Lucia, Shaunie and maisie cut out all of the tickets, this job was done quickly and we got them all cut in one hour.
Our next job was making the programmes this was done by me, Lucia and Shaunie this was a difficult task as we started the design of our programmes on the wrong programme on the computer, so we had to re-do the whole programme. However this job did take us a long time as we had to get everyone's name that took part in the dance show and this took us a long time to do as we kept making spelling mistakes so we had to re-do the programmes a lot. But after we had solved these problems we were able to get the programmes printed and folded very quickly.

My first suggestion to the production of the dance show was the idea of the red and white costumes for superbass, I thought this would be good idea because it symbolises the final battle in Alice wonderland and this was then used in the show.
My first job as a secretary I wrote a letter to Mrs Grantham asking permission for the show and clarifying the dates so that all the other groups could start on their jobs. After this I wrote my first letter to Mr Williman for the group doing fundraising because they wanted permission for fundraising events and I let the dance group know about this over the blog so they was able to make plans. They then asked me to write another letter to him to see if we could have a Year 7 and 8 disco to raise money for the show, I did this and he replied saying that we could go ahead with this. I let the fundraising group know so that they could then go ahead with their ideas.
During form time and out of school I helped to sell the dance show tickets with Sophie Peyman and we handed in all the money we made to either Miss Hardy or Mrs Grantham.
Also I volunteered to help Miss Hardy by re-typing the running order and whether the dancers started on or off the stage on the laptops and I emailed it back so that she was then able to print it off as many times as it was needed.
After the dance shows was over me and Emma Rignall collected the costume rack with the costumes on and brought it back up to the drama studio so we could then sort the costumes out so that they was all hung on hangers not creased.

My first job as a secretary I wrote a letter to Mrs Grantham asking permission for the show and clarifying the dates so that all the other groups could start on their jobs. After this I wrote my first letter to Mr Williman for the group doing fundraising because they wanted permission for fundraising events and I let the dance group know about this over the blog so they was able to make plans. They then asked me to write another letter to him to see if we could have a Year 7 and 8 disco to raise money for the show, I did this and he replied saying that we could go ahead with this. I let the fundraising group know so that they could then go ahead with their ideas.

Firstly tech team had to ask finance to write a letter to tim asking him if he was able to do the lighting and sound on both nights of the dance show. Then we thought about all the dances and thought of what lighting would work well with the dance, depending on what style of dance it was. Next, we went through the running order and wrote down all the dances and sorted out the lighting, smoke etc. We then handed our list in to Miss Hardy.

Firstly for the dance show, Costume had a meeting into what we thought everyone should wear for the seperate dances, we also sketched some ideas out and showed them back to everyone to see what they thought when they told us their ideas for the costumes, we then just made the changes and went to see what exsisting costumes we had in the drama studio.
We then wrote our ideas on the blog to make sure that everyone was happy with what we had suggested and then if they werent they could reply to us on the blog, we then went back to the drama studio and counted all of the costumes we wanted to use to make sure we had enough for every performer. Towards the end of the run up towards the show we put all the costumes in bags and named them:)
