marcomac29 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 so... how does one go about getting more GE since that was mansfield's downfall? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radchad Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 so... how does one go about getting more GE since that was mansfield's downfall? I would like to know that as well. I guess GE is still confusing to me. Mansfield's show is not boring. And I'm pretty sure the drill is exciting. So why doesn't it have as much GE as let's say.. Marcus's show?

aaron067 Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 For an official and somewhat nebulous description of every caption, check out this link. Scroll to the bottom, and the captions will be on the right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaron067 Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 I have read that before. Then you have the closest official answer you can get without looking at the judging criteria for the GE captions, which your director might have. Essentially, the GE score is about the design of the total package and not necessarily whether it's exciting or not. They're looking for an intended thought, idea, or theme to be communicated through the music and the visual elements, and then they want it to be cohesive and executed well throughout the show. So, basically, there's not a lot you can do about the GE score if the show wasn't designed in that manner. There are some things, like transitional visuals and music, etc., but trust me when I say after 4 years of helping with the Coppell band I know exactly how little those things actually affect the visual GE score.

JohnDanielDoe Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Yeah....and Brazoswood was 3rd in prelims and got 7th in finals, Friendswood was 6th in prelims and got 9th in finals....Every band was placed differently from prelims to finals, except for SFA. Nobody really knows who will score where. We could have the same set of judges judge the same contest and get different results every time. It all depends on what their taste and mood is like that day... Actually, Friendswood ended up getting 6th in the finals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
