How to Write a Media Advisory (4 Steps)

Print the advisory on company or organization letterhead. This gives greater credibility to your advisory and immediately identifies who is hosting the event. While you're typing, leave room at the top of your document for the letterhead.
Type the words 'MEDIA ADVISORY' at the top of the page in all caps. Follow this with contact information for the person the media can speak with for more information. Include the person's name, title, phone number and email address.
Create a catchy headline that grabs the reporter's attention and accurately conveys the event's main idea. Use strong verbs and avoid unnecessary adjectives or filler words.
Cover all the important details of the event. Answer the main questions, such as: what the event is; where it's being held; who's sponsoring it and who will attend; what will happen; what the main events are; and, most importantly, why the media should be there to cover it. Explain whether there will be photo opportunities. Describe any subjects who will be available for one-on-one interviews.

How to set up a webcam (hosted and using FTP)

PURCHASE A WEB CAM:I described that you could use a PnP (Plug and Play) webcam in my first article, but for this operation, you will probably want to consider a little better web cam. You can still use a PnP camera at first, but you will want to upgrade as time goes on. I would recommend the use of the $50 - $70 Logitech webcams for this operation.
INSTALL THE WEBCAM SOFTWARE:Once you have your camera, install the software that comes with it. READ the instructions for installing your webcam onto your local computer. Troubleshoot as needed for setup.
FTP DELIVERY SYSTEM OVERVIEW: In my basic webcam set up article, I discussed the use of a free hosting provider or the use of Yahoo, AOL, MSN, or SKYPE. However if you have your own webserver, there are two main ways to deliver your webcam content to your website and server:1) FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to your website and your webserver that you host with. We will discuss this option in this article. 2) Set up an in-house server that uses webcam software to stream your images. I am not going to discuss this option in this article.
DOWNLOAD WEBCAM FTP SOFTWARE:This method assumes that you know how to use an FTP program to publish your website already. There is a lot of free software out there that you can use to set up an FTP link to your hosting provider for your webcam. A few webcams come with free webcam software that you can also use. I recommened that you look into using Webcam32, (trial version, then purchase) TinCam (trial version and purchase) or ConquerCam (trial version and purchase). You can also do a Google search for other software programs available and free software available.Which ever one you decide to use, download it and install it on your computer. Set up your webcam as instructed in the directions of the software.
SET UP YOUR WEBCAM FTP ACCOUNT:Alright, so now we will set up the FTP information so that your images and video can get online! Depending on the software you downloaded, you may have a built-in web page builder or you will have to create a video wrapper on your web page. I will not explain that here, so you can look this up on Google. You will need to have a basic knowledge of html to understand how to do this. Build a test web page for this purpose on your site.
TEST THE CAMERA:Once you have set up your FTP account, you can now test the WebCam and see if it is saving data out to your FTP account and your test webpage. Congratulations if it is working correctly, if not, check your code on your HTML page, and also check the FTP information you provided to the software.

How to Host a Runway Fashion Show for Teens (5 Steps)

Pick a location with plenty of room. Most often when you rent out a location, seating options will be available. Ask before reserving your space. If you choose to have your event outdoors, find a location where you can use the parking lot. Rent foldup chairs or set up blankets and sleeping bags where viewers can cheer their favorite fashion show entrant.
Set the stage. The stage is the central element of any fashion show; rent a collapsible stage at a local rental company, or use a roll of red or white fabric. Use two-by-fours to hold into place, whether it's indoors or outdoors. Or set seating up in two single files, parallel to each other, and create an invisible runway.
Pick the tunes. Any fashion show will be a hit if you have the right music. Choose catchy tunes, dance mixes, something that has a beat. Rent a sound system or borrow a stereo or boom box to play the edgy rhythms. Use a microphone or megaphone to introduce your fashion show participants.
Consider renting a spotlight or gather a few flashlights to shine on your entrants. Many times, if you're renting multiple pieces of equipment, rental companies will offer a discount on items.
Create a publicity flier. Consider charging a small fee at the door to help the teens in the show or a local teen cause, or consider selling refreshments. Advertise the details on your flier, and make sure to include the who, what, when, where and why.
