Troscar Video Recordings Now Open!

Hi All!

With Troscars closing in on us SO soon (Wednesday!), I need folks to do recordings presenting the Troscars themselves!

As many of you know, one of the most fun parts of the the entire Troscars experience is the presentations of the Troscars!  Historically, students have, in singles, doubles, and small groups, have put together speeches, sketches, dance numbers, and more to entertain and then, announce the voted-upon winners of the awards.  The only thing that's changing about that this year is the delivery method...

Here's what we're looking for:
1) Email me (Miller...duh) at mjamie@pps.net with what category you'd like to present; first come, first served, until we run out of categories.
2) I'll email you back with the winners of your selected category...once you get that email from me you'll be sworn to secrecy (no spoilers!), and can get to work on your video submission.
3) You'll have 3 minutes worth of time...keep it tight!
4) This is still a school event...keep your humor/thoughts appropriate to that format.
5) The last thing in your video should be an announcement of the winner.
6) Upload that video to your school Google Drive and share that, with editing permission to me by 1100am on Wednesday, May 27th
7) Join us for the first online Troscars this Wednesday, May 27th at 700pm: WHSTroscars2020 on Google Meet!
