Week 6 Update

FRONT OF HOUSE



This week the FOH continued with garment review, photographing and filing all of the garments for the show.

Below: A design by one of our potential featured designers, Michelle Williams, is reviewed.



At this point we have all of the final garments in or on the way this week. While a model fitting was originally scheduled this week, it had to be postponed due to unexpected and unavoidable absences. It will now be taking place next week.



BACK OF HOUSE


BOH was really hit with a workload these past two weeks. Last week was centered around the press relations of:
-researching bloggers in the Seattle area
-rewriting our event one-sheet
-determining the necessary information for the program



We are searching for local bloggers interested in fashion and up-and-coming artistic talent to post information about our show regarding tickets, show times, and a brief description. We have already received some responses back of blogs agreeing to assist us in our promotional efforts.


The program information was mostly collected over the past week and carried over into this week. Potential designer bios, sketches, and headshots were organized into a file for easy insertion into the program, which should happen this next week. then, in conjunction with out graphic designer, we will develop the graphics for the program, and then it's off to print!

Also on the list this week was our press release. Back of House Press Manager Nicole was working hard on this, and finding news venues for us to send it to.

We are still looking for sponsorships, but are hitting somewhat of a wall, as many of our desired companies have already fulfilled their sponsorship allotment for the year/quarter/month. But with a little hard work, we're confident that we'll have a great group of companies helping us out.

Ticket sales are going great! VIP tickets are sold out at this point, and reserved seating for both shows is going fast! So you'd better get your tickets soon before even the standing room tickets are gone. Check out the ticketing post below for more information.
