OSPS Harlem Shake

This is a link to view the One Stop Prom Shop Harlem Shake video, check it out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynsnTqn35TI

The Harlem Shake became a new craze a week or two ago. This video has one random person dancing with their face covered, with everyone else around acting like there isn't someone dancing. Then once the bass drops, everyone breaks out in random dances. There is a lot going on in these videos.

On Tuesday of last week, one of our IMDD students brought up the idea to make our own video. So we decided the plan for it on Wednesday, then we made the actual video on Thursday in our homeroom period which is a 32 minute period. We finished with quiet a bit of time to spare. Yesterday we finally posted the video. When we came to class today, the views on Youtube so far is 898. The views on the Facebook video is 205. Our One Stop Prom Shop Twitter account gained 15 followers after the video has been posted.

Our video has become viral. This is something that will hopefully have a positive outcome on our marketing. The One Stop Prom Shop is going to be March 3rd at the Natatorium, 11-3.

One Stop Prom Shop

     Again this year, our junior marketing students are working on a project known as One Stop Prom Shop, or OSPS. It is a prom trade show. Even though it is their project all three marketing classes are working together to make this show go by smoothly. Up until March 3rd, we have to market the show, use social media in order to promote it, and deal with the business side of everything.

     This event is to help students from schools all over the area with their prom needs. If you show up at this event you are entered to win many prizes. You could win a limo ride, a free tux, a free dress, flowers and much more. There is an ultimate prize, there is a chance to win a completely free prom! Which makes going to this event more enticing.

     The junior class is in charge of dealing with sponsors, set up and schedule of the event. The senior class is in charge of the game show and social media aspect of this event. They use Twitter and Instagram. Then our class, Interactive Media and Digital Design, is in charge of the assembly, video and promotional events, by going to other schools and promoting it. For the assembly our class created a video to shows s boy working his way to get a girl to go to prom with him. Then the majority of our class are morphs. We found a choreographed dance and recreated it. We will be preforming it at our school's assembly and at the OSPS itself.

     The event is going to be very helpful for prom goers. Everyone should come see it on March 3rd!
