Gear Live reports:
Michael Eisner, former CEO of Disney, has announced the formation of Vuguru, a studio that will develop what they claim will be a “slickly written, produced, and acted Web video about love, gossip and betrayal.” In other words, his investment company, The Tornate, will be producing a professionally made YouTube soap opera.

Eisner feels that although YouTube has won the first battle in Internet TV, real media moguls will ultimately win the broadband war. His first show will be “Prom Queen,” a who-done-it with daily 90-second installments beginning April 2. You will find all 80 episodes on Vuguru.com, Ellegirl.com (a “Prom Queen” sponsor,) Veoh, and of course, YouTube.

Can Media Mavens Legitimize Short Video?

Spoto juniors step in to help Chamberlain seniors

A Chamberlain High School teacher was accused of embezzling almost $10,000 from the north Tampa school’s senior class prom fund.

The Spoto junior class realizes the importance of the senior prom. They have decided to forego their junior prom to save money for next year’s senior prom. Spoto opened in August and has no graduating class this year.

Lindsay Landram, a Spoto teacher and the junior-class adviser, called Chamberlain with one question: What can we do to help?

Your prom theme is very important. It will be remembered for years to come by your classmates.

Here are some tips to help you decide:

Think about the type of prom you want to have, and see if your school has developed the guidelines for the prom colors, decorations etc. so you don’t make a lot of plans and then have to change them. Some themes are central where the students dress in theme with the decorations, or it can be specified as a theme to be appreciated as the backdrop alone. Whatever theme you choose make sure it fits the personality and customs of your student body. Don’t have a Disco Fever Night at your school if you know that no one listens to that genre for example.

Picture this: The winter formal

When a child is born with autism or Down syndrome, many of the special things in life are just not obtainable. Many of life’s milestones, like the first time you got behind the wheel, or that first kiss, are out of reach. But on this night, the staff at the South Bergen Jointure Middle/High School — with some help from the Rutherford Elks — were determined to make a memory for 40 kids that would last forever. The first-ever Winter Formal was a huge success.

Why would you consider joining the Prom planning committee? It’s an incredible opportunity to create a night your fellow classmates will remember for the rest of their lives. If that isn’t enough, think of the satisfaction of knowing you were one of the people who made it happen. All those smiles and stories that will be told for years to come, will be because of you and the others who made it happen! Photo, perfectproms.com

You will also learn how to work well with a diverse group of people and these skills will benefit you in many other settings such as college and future jobs. Even if you will be self-employed one day you will always need to know how to pull together a group of people to accomplish a goal, so why not start learning those skills now? Plus, it’s so much fun.

A fun thing to do with the leftover wrapping paper and cards is to create fun things like ornaments you can use next year. Trees full of handmade ornaments made from recycled paper are always in fashion. You’ll remember all over again the fun you had this year and the wonderful gifts you received when seeing the paper again as a decoration. You can give them as gifts too. Of course there are other things you can do with cards and papers, and here are some fun links to ideas. Photo, MoonlitJazz

It looks as though Racine Wisconsin knows how to throw a party. 7 high schools converge for one big red carpet super-bowl excitement level prom. This film, “The World’s Best Prom”, has captured all of it. I love the idea that everybody gets to feel like a star! Buy the film here: The World’s Best Prom

“It’s like your senior prom, plus the Super Bowl plus the Oscars all in one. Every town should have ‘The World’s Best Prom.’ You will LOVE this movie. If you don’t then you are lying.”
Maya Rudolph, SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE
