Disguise

• 1. What is meant by non-verbal communication?
• 2. Can the team use letters on costumes, props
  or scenery?

  costumes, props or scenery?

• 5. What happens if the team writes more on the
  Team Identification Sign than just their Team
  Name, School/Organization Name and Level?

20
Questions for Appraiser Training Challenge C In
Disguise

• 1. In this Challenge, teams may not use any
  verbal language (A.2.b). This means they may not
  write, speak, or sing or use any verbal language
  of any kind during the Presentation. Therefore,
  teams must use other theatrical techniques to
  convey the story to the Appraisers and audience.
• 2. Section A.2.b.ii states the team may not use
  written words or letters from any language to
  enhance the story. Letters would be a form of
  verbal communication. Therefore, teams may not
  use letters on costumes, props, scenery or any
  other place that would enhance the story. The
  only place where letters are allowed are on the
  Team Identification sign.

21
Questions for Appraiser Training Challenge C In
Disguise

• If a team member wears a commercially made piece
  of clothing that has words or letters on it and
  the team uses this piece of clothing to enhance
  the story, then the team engaged in an Illegal
  Procedure. However, if a team member wears a
  commercially made piece of clothing that has
  words or letters on it and the team does not use
  it to enhance the story, then this is not
  illegal. In these cases, this commercially made
  clothing piece must not be considered part of the
  team members costume.
• 3. Teams are allowed to use numbers, as long as
  they are written using digits (i.e. 1, 34, 104,
  etc.) and not in word form (for example one,
  thirty-four, one hundred four, etc.). Likewise,
  teams may not speak the numbers out loud, because
  that would qualify as using words, which is
  prohibited according to A.2.b.
• Symbols do not qualify as verbal communication.
  Therefore, teams may use symbols in the
  Presentation.

22
Questions for Appraiser Training Challenge C In
Disguise

• 4. Section A.2.b states that teams will use
  non-verbal theatrical techniques in the
  Presentation. Sound effects are listed as an
  example of non-verbal theatrical techniques.
  Therefore, all sound effects, including those
  that are similar to words, are to be allowed in
  this Challenge. The team should receive an
  Illegal Procedure deduction only if the
  Appraisers are sure that the team intended to use
  a word and not a sound effect.
• 5. As Section A.2.b.ii states the only written
  words that the team may make visible to the
  audience and the Appraisers are the Team Name,
  School/Organization Name, and Level. If a team
  displays more information using words or letters
  on their sign, Appraisers should not take these
  additional words or letters into account when
  scoring for clear and effective non-verbal
  storytelling. If the Prep Area Appraiser notices
  something on the sign besides what is allowed,
  the team should be given the opportunity to
  remove it before they start their Presentation.

23
Questions for Appraiser Training Challenge C In

• 6. Can the team communicate privately?
• 6. Section A.2.biii states that during the
  Presentation, private spoken or written
  communication between team members is allowed
  as long as it does not enhance the Presentation.
  Therefore, teams may communicate with each other
  privately as long as the communication is not
  meant for the Appraisers or audience to hear.

  language to camouflage and costumes, disguises
  come in many forms. Whatever the method of
  disguise, the result is the same a hidden
  identity.
• a. During the Presentation, a character must use
  a Disguise. For the purpose of this Challenge,
  this means that the character must first present
  one identity and then change appearance,
  personality, and/or behaviors to present a
  different identity.
• b. The team will earn points for the integration
  of the Disguise into the Story. This includes
  showing the reason a character uses a Disguise
  and the impact of the Disguise on the Story.

  method(s) used to create the Disguise. This means
  how creatively the character transforms from one

  effectiveness of the Disguise. This means how
  well the Disguise hides the characters real
  identity.
• e. The team may include more than one Disguise

  Skills used during the Presentation when a
  character or characters interact with the

  the motion and its effect on the Story.

  hide its identity with a Disguise. This means
  that the character must first present one
  identity and then change appearance, personality,
  and/or behaviors to present a different identity.
  Therefore, the character going into disguise must
  undergo a change in physical appearance, a change
  in personality, or a change in behavior. The
  Challenge also allows for the character to
  undergo a change in more than one characteristic
  listed above.
• 8. Section A.3.b states that the team must show
  the reason why a character has to go in disguise.
  The story must also include the impact the
  character going into disguise has on the story.
• 9. According to Section A.3.d, Appraisers should
  look at how well the Disguise hides the
  characters identity. If Appraisers are unsure of
  which identity is the Disguise, they should ask
  the team for clarification.

29
Questions for Appraiser Training Challenge C In
Disguise

• 10. Yes. The Challenge states that the Morphing
  Mask must change appearance in full view of the
  audience (A.4.a.i).
• 11. No. Section A.4.d states that neither the
  Morphing Mask nor the Decorative Mask may be used
  as the Disguise or any part of the Disguise
  described in A.3. If, before the Presentation,
  Appraisers realize that one of the required masks
  is being used as part of the Disguise, then the
  team must be given an opportunity to adjust their
  solution to meet the requirements in A.4.d. If
  the team presents either the Decorative Mask or
  the Morphing Mask as part of the Disguise, the
  Appraisers should score both the Disguise and the
  Mask as if they were separate. Then, the
  Appraisers will give the team an Illegal
  Procedure Deduction for the creative method(s)
  used to create the Disguise. The number of points
  deducted must be based on the impact the mask had
  on the Disguise.

30
Questions for Appraiser Training Challenge C In
Disguise

• 12. No. Section A.4.c states that the Decorative
  Mask and the Morphing Mask must be two different
  masks. If, before the Presentation, Appraisers
  realize that these two required masks are on the
  same, then the team must be given an opportunity
  to adjust their solution to meet the
  requirements in A.4. If the team does not present
  the Decorative Mask and the Morphing Mask as two
  different masks, the Appraisers must score the
  one mask as if it were two different masks.
  Then, the team should earn Illegal Procedure
  Deductions. The Appraisers will deduct 50 of
  the points earned for the Innovative Methods
  used to change the appearance of Morphing Mask
  and 50 of the points earned for the Creativity
  of the Decorative Mask. No Illegal Procedure
  Deduction is required for Theatrical Impact of
  all Masks.

31
Questions for Appraiser Training Challenge C In
Disguise

• 13. In the Team Challenge (Section A.4.a.iii and
  A.4.b.iii), the Morphing Mask and the Decorative
  Mask are referred to in the singular. So, teams
  may only earn points for one Morphing Mask and
  one Decorative Mask. Teams may have more than
  one of each of the types of masks. But, only one
  Morphing Mask and only one Decorative mask will
  earn points for theatrical impact of all masks
  (A.4.e). Teams may decide to select additional
  masks to earn points for Team Choice Elements.
  Additional masks that the team selects to be
  scored for Team Choice Elements should also be
  included in the score for the theatrical impact
  of all masks.
