Idea
We are going to cover the Mr. Spirit pageant, an all-male pageant hosted by the Texas Spirits, a campus spirit organization. The event is a fundraiser for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and St. Louise House and is going to take place at 8 p.m. on March 29th in the SAC auditorium. It includes a talent, question and answer, and modeling portion. The contestants, who represent different campus organizations, can win the titles of Mr. Spirit, Mr. Philanthropy, and Mr. Congeniality.

Structure
The story will contain footage of the event mixed with interviews with some of the contestants, members of the Texas Spirits, and the audience.
---
Text Element
The text component can provide information about the motivation of the contestants and organizers, as well as cover reactions from the audience. The narration and portions of the interviews will occur over the B-roll, which will be predominantly footage of the competition itself in order to provide context. This will also help to establish the setting and the mood of the event, making the story more relevant to the UT community. We hope to use the text element of our story to make our coverage of the Mr. Spirit event more compelling and interesting to the audience rather than a simple series of facts listed off by the event's organizers.
