60 years Artwork

This is my 60 Years Artwork which is the school back in 1952. I decided to make it look oldish by adding newspaper and painting a tiny bit of tea on top. I tried to make the art look like the original photo which it does but the original looks more dull. I did my border the same colour as the roof so the roof stands out. The banner with '60 Years' fills in some of the plainness in the roof.

NZ's got Talent!

                                        Newly previewed on TV 1, NZ's got Talent has started up again. The first series started on 8th of September 2008 hosted by Jason Reeves and Andrew Mulligan. The show was on Prime and judged by Richard Driver, Paul Ellis and Miriama Smith. The Semi-Final were held on the 29th of September 2008 and announced on the 30th of September. The finalist were a dancer called Chaz Cumming and Music Group, TMC but Chaz Cumming won in the end. They decided to end the show  as Prime didn't have enough money and have now started it again on the 9th of September 2012.





 24th of February was the day the second series was announced for NZ's got Talent for 2012. June 29th, they announced the hosts and judges for the show which is hosted by Tamati Coffey and judged by Ali Campbell, Rachel Hunter and Jason Kerrison. NZ on air gave the show $1.6 million to start it off and has now become a big hit after the first show.The top prize was and is $100,000.

 I love NZ's got talent because of the humorous acts and excitement. I went to one of the auditions which was awesome but there was alot of waiting for cameras and backstage interviews. There were some hilarious acts including a fake One Direction but there were some awesome dances including Infinite dance. I went with Antonia and my dad. We sat on the 3rd level and got zoom up by the camera. We were told not to look and clap happily. I think everyone will enjoy it and should watch in on Sundays, TV1 at 7.30pm.

Production

Last week was the last production  for the year seven and eights. It was an amazing time getting ready for 2 days of fun and action. I had a full face paint which Ms Bolger was practicing most days for the night.

My outfit was very itchy because I had heaps of dirty feathers and feather boas all over me, I don't think anyone knew who I was! Room 5 did a great job dancing as little ducklings.

Every practice we had at the Theatre, I could see Charlotte D, Junah and Ms Bolger dancing in the wings. The dressing rooms were awesome because they had speakers echoing everything on stage which lead us to enter the wings at the right time. We finally had a photo at the end of everyone celebrating!
