About the Show:
Design Concept:
An eclectic group of six mid-pubescents vie for the spelling championship of a lifetime. While candidly disclosing hilarious and touching stories from their home lives, the tweens spell their way through a series of (potentially made-up) words, hoping never to hear the soul-crushing, pout-inducing, life un-affirming "ding" of the bell that signals a spelling mistake. Six spellers enter; one speller leaves a champion! At least the losers get a juice box.

The concept of the show was to highlight the eccentricities of the spellers and the three adults running the bee. Through the use of vocal effects and a reinforcement-based mix, the goal of the sound design was to delve into each of the characters to find out what it means to be human.

Olive's Ringtone
This was used when Olive's phone rang. The tune is pulled from the chorus of "The I Love You Song", which followed shortly after this moment.
