ONLINE PERFORMANCE DANCER POLICIES ! NIZANA'S "NIGHT in the GLOBAL VILLAGE" haflas
PERFORMER POLICY INFORMATION Your Four Teams for Night in the Global Village are: Nizana/Nefabit/Yalayna; Nizana/Paloma Phoenix; Nizana/David Metz; Nizana/Saqra • Family friendly/culturally sensitive (costuming, music and movement.) Please review and adhere to our diversity statement. • Live/real time Zoom performances. Videos accepted on case by case/hardship basis. Not preferred due to technical difficulties and lack of feeling of connection to each other. • Five minutes max for themed haflas (e.g. Summer in, Sizzlin in, etc.) • Typically, you play your own music; for Live in the Global Village titled haflas, music is sent to David in advance. Only the haflas that say LIVE in the Global Village have live drum solo spots. • For Live in the Global Village series haflas, drum solos are to be arranged with Nizana FIRST due to limited number of spots. Once approved, dancers may work out with David whether they will dance only to a drum solo or whether they are combining canned music with a drum solo for a total of up to 7 minutes max. • Send required info by deadline - dance name and pronunciation, 2-3 sentence bio-intro, promo pic, style performing; to be posted on FB • Plan to stay for the duration of the hafla and support the other dancers. Any exceptions to this are to be arranged in advance with Nizana • Check in 30 minutes prior to showtime mandatory (up to 60 minutes) to ensure understand technical requirements and set up your camera. Each NGV team does things a little differently, so please ensure you are current with the style and directions for tech check (announced in messenger group.) This also pertains to how to get your copy of your performance. • Performances will be posted in an archive (as long as there isn't an issue that prevents that). • If you have something urgent come up and will be late, communicate this with Nizana in advance so we don’t have to track you down or start the show late • Share the event and help promote it • Be supportive on the event page and in the Zoom/FB chat to the performers • Donations are requested at the haflas. You can accept your portion or opt out which defaults to the organizers &/or they split with a “special” guest • Any fundraising suggestions need to be approved and designated such in advance by the organizer. If you wish to donate to a cause, you can do so directly with donations you receive. • Tech tips (attending at least one pre-show tech check is mandatory): Be sure your video is turned off and your audio is muted when you are not the “spotlighted” performer. Do some homework on Zoom use to familiarize yourself with it- there are tutorials and cheat sheets online; pre-test if possible. If you are asked to share your screen or sound, be sure to TURN THEM BACK OFF after you’re done performing and keep them off unless requested otherwise. THANK YOU, so glad you have joined us in the Village! Have fun!
