Hi all!
I've been asked by the Regional Management Team to develop another slide
presentation similar to the one I created for the Winner's Circle Show last
August. I will create the slide presentation, add music (I think??) and then
copy it to video for showing at the Sunday Brunch during competition weekend.
I'm going to create two slide presentations:
-- "A Look Back at Region 11"
This video will have some vintage clips and photos from recent years, as
well as years and years (and years!) ago.
-- "2001: The Year in Review"
This video will show the highlights of this past year -- choruses,
competing quartets, and regional happenings.
Here's where I need your help -- or the help from someone in your
chorus/quartet. I am looking for photos to include in both videos mentioned
above.
If you have old photos for the "history" video -- of your old quartet,
chorus, candids, etc. -- I'd love to borrow them. It'll be really fun to look
back at those funny costumes and to remember friends.
As for the 2001 video -- I'd like to get about 5 photos that will give a fun,
quick look at what happened to your chorus or quartet this year. I'm looking
for candid photos -- I don't need official competition photos since I already
have all of those. Some ideas: photos of chorus members at a performance or
social event, funny photos from your retreat, or photos taken during a
regional weekend. Don't forget to include a fun picture of your director(s)
if you have one!
I also plan to have a "Passages" portion on the 2001 video -- a tribute to
Region 11 Sweet Adelines we've lost this year. So please send a photo if you
have someone in your chorus you'd like to honor.
The goal is to make sure every chorus is represented on the 2001 video -- I
know that you'll want to be sure that your chorus/quartet is included.
I need to receive all photos either by snail mail, or preferably by e-mail
attachment (.JPG file, please) NO LATER THAN JANUARY 18. On all photos,
please identify those pictured, and on photos sent via snail mail, be sure
your name is on the photos -- I will return them.
I'm looking forward to working on this fun project! Hope you all have plans
to attend the Brunch on Sunday morning after contest. If not, it's not too
late to sign up!
Thanks,
Debbie Curtis
