AFT AWARDS

Please Take Note.

a) Dates:

The AFT awards are going to be held real soon. The possible dates as of now are the 10th (Friday), 11th (Saturday) or 12th (Sunday) of April or anything thereafter.

The reason why we didn't hold it the week right after the musical is because every single one of us wanted to go down and support Anaz in his performance (Btw Anaz, you were really on fire : ) )

Also, the AFT awards cannot be held this week because of a few reasons...
1) The funding for this dinner is on hold due to the closure of the CC's financial year.
2) The closing of the musical's finances. It is important that Janise and I finish off the accounts for this first before opening up a new budget.
3) It is too much of a rush to have the event this week as it would be a haphazard job due to the trophies not having been printed yet and the awardees not decided upon.
4) The Chalet.

I understand from Andrew and Lex that some of you'll will be entering NS before 10 April. Please post at the tagboard if that's the case then we'll have to work something out.

If not, we'll stick to next week.

So, take a look at the poll on the right side of the blog's page and vote for the date that you prefer. This poll will only be open for two days so please vote as soon as possible.

I have to submit a proposal for this dinner and the faster it is submitted the better.

Okay so if you want to nominate anyone for any of the awards, please state the category and the award you are putting them up for. Remember, there must be one person to nominate and another person to second that nomination. Only then will the person be considered. (Please Email your nominations via facebook either to me or Thana.)

If more than 3 people are nominated for an award or if more then 3 departments, dances or scenes are nominated for one award, please acknowledge that the Director and Producer will look over the nominees and select the top three.

Any decisions made will be final.

Btw, nominations have to be made by Thursday 12am. I will not accept any nominations after that as Thana and I will have to collate the top three nominees for each category by Friday night.

C) Award Presentors

The award persentors will be our very own people from the musical. So start thinking about what award you are interested in giving out. You need not give it out alone. You may give it out with your acting team, dance group, friends...anything goes...as long as you run it by us first.

Once the top three nominations for each award is reached, the award presentors roles will be opened to all of you'll. So if you are not a nominee for that particular award, you may help to present it. This will only be opened Sunday onwards.)
