A "blueprint" can be described as a model or prototype. Something that represents the pinnacle of where other similar things are fashioned from. Many people have their own thoughts about what a blueprint is, how it is created, and how it should be executed, just as many people have their own thoughts about what success means. What we will see tonight is, can we create our own blueprint of what it means to be successful? Tonight its not about traditional and what once was, we want to see something revolutionary that has yet to be done on a ballroom runway....the synthesis of empowerment and education coupled with the ballroom floor. What we want to see today is; can you demonstrate success in other areas in addition to the ballroom floor?

To qualify for the trophy for each category you must be able to answer an HIV related question.

Categories

"The Blueprint of Realness"- (BQ Realness) - You know the taste! I wanna see the pretty bois, the school bois, the thugs, executives (if you dare) and the athletic realness guys bring it. This is not a category that requires a change of clothes if you are "everyday all day realness"!!!

Virgin Performance- There are no chops in this category, you simply have to show us what you have been working on. You are attempting to create the standard so remember the five elements and make sure you have them when you hit the runway!

"The Blueprint of Carta" - (OTA Face) - Painted or Unpainted. Light or Dark or Medium? If you have what it takes to help redefine what FACE means, line up at the back of the runway and show the judges. Knowing the basics might prove to be to your advantage!!! !

Virgin Runway- Tired of watching the girls pump? Want to get out there and get your L.I.F.E? Know that you are being judged on your look as well as your walk. Even though there are no chops for this category, make sure you come ready to serve!!!

Sneaker vs. Sneaker- Some of you spend hundreds of dollars on shoes because you want the best and unique style. Lets see what you think is the best.....bring us your best "sneaker" and tell us why its so unique.

"The Blueprint of Runway" - (Runway OTA) - Every once and a while, someone will make an impact in runway so strong that it becomes a "staple" or the new standard to which everything else is measured. We want to see that tonight!!! Bring us your most sickening look, walk, and poses to mark a new day in the definition of RUNWAY!!!

"The Blueprint of Performance" - (Performance OTA) - What is performance? What exactly is a catwalk and duckwalk? Are you a twister? Do you have hands or arms control? Tonight its all about the art of performance! ! I want to see you take performance beyond the elements and wow us with what you feel should be the new standard for performance.

"The Blueprint of J-Sette" - Some people think they can do the counts, while other KNOW they can. Which are you? Will you be on beat or will the count beat you? We all know that any new standard should totally stand out from the old. Which road will you take? The door to the new standard or the old?
