Q&A:
1. How long is the film? The film is about 80 min.
2. Do I need to buy a virtual ticket for each viewing person? Yes. This performance is a fundraiser and selling virtual tickets is more important than ever. This virtual event will helps us grow our performance budget so that we can continue to provide your dancers quality performance experiences throughout the year. So to better explain it:
If you have a family of 4 who are planning to watch this virtual performance you should purchase 4 $20 regular view tickets (4x$20= $80 venmo or paypal)
Each virtual ticket sold gives you in essence a seat in our virtual theatre. You can’t buy 1 ticket to a live performance and then bring other people with you.
3. Will this performance be entertaining even if my dancer is not a participant? 100%!!! This is a performance that will entertain all. Everyone worked very hard to put on this virtual show together. For those of who couldn’t participate, this is your chance to support and cheer for your child’s classmates and well as support your dance school. For those of you who are new to our studio family, this give you an opportunity to see what our final performance is like and it allows you to see what the training would be like for your dancer as they get older.
4. Do I need to do anything to prepare for the streaming? I would suggest that on the day of the show your turn off any and all devices that are connected to your wifi with the exception of the one your plan to use to stream the performance. We have streamed this performance a few times in different location to make sure it runs smoothly and while we can make sure that thing run in order we can’t guarantee no buffering. It will depend on what kind of bandwidth you have at home. This is why we are giving our regular viewers extra time on Saturday to view the show incase it take some time to upload. We will send a email with additional tips as we get closer to the performance day.
5. What if I can’t get it to work? I will be available thru the Facebook event page to chat should any problems with the link come up. I plan to monitor the event page during the premier and make sure I can help. Please note I can’t do anything about your wifi or bandwidth.
