The Staff Meeting

On Tuesday last week, I attended the Selwyn House staff meeting where I presented my lip dub idea. The teachers were very supportive and I handed out the slips that I created. I showed a short clip of the StAC lip dub and a short clip of my mock up. I told them that I needed them to practice any moves with their class, brief them and choose who will be where.

I realised as I was presenting that I hadn't created a list for the preschool or the specialist teachers so . . .
That is what I have been doing for the past week on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. I really need to print them out soon as it is very soon that the lip dub will be filmed (Tuesday.)

On Thursday, I e-mailed all of the classroom teachers with the information that they need to show their class. It included two lipdub links and my blog, and I told them that if they needed me to come and see their class that I was available.

I fear that some teachers may not have talked to their class about the lipdub yet. So today I re-emailed them say that if they hadn't already, could they please talk to their class about their lip dub, prep any moves and choose who is going to go where if their class needs to get split up.

I CAN FILM!!!!

So, My big news is, that I found out that the school is going to fund my lip dub!!!

(I found this out in about week 6)

CTV (Canterbury Television) are coming into Selwyn to do three 4 minute sections. The first one is going to be about the pre-school, the second one is directed at parents with Dr Bird talking and the last one, they have decided, will be my lip dub.

Here is what I've been doing to prepare:

On Tuesday in week 8, I did a lot of work, modifying the plan and creating slips of paper for each teacher, saying where their class is going. Here is a brief rundown of how each class is split...




On Wednesday in week 8, the marketing team came to my house and I showed them my mock up, plan and the slips for the teachers. I have found out that I will be filming on Tuesday the 5th of August. We start school on the 22nd of July so I will film in week 3. I have also been told that I can go to the editing suite at CTV to see how they edit and hopefully help them edit the lip dub. They will also give me the edited lip dub so that I can show it to you on my blog and the school can use it for marketing.

I told them that I had acquired permission to use the song and I showed my progress through this blog. Now that I have permission to use the song, I can put my mock-up lip dub on the blog.

(Please excuse the bad sound quality and lighting issues.)

Tonight, I will present to the whole staff at the staff meeting after school. I will hand out the slips and also will show them a short clip of the StAC lipdub. Tomorrow, I will post what happened and how it went.
