Beijing Olympics seeks ceremonial ideas
The Beijing Olympics have launched a global search campaign for ideas that would make the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Games a spectacular and inspiring event. Organisers say they are looking for creative concepts that could turn the opening and closing ceremonies of the Beijing games, which are to emphasize technology, the environment and peace, into "wonders." Jiang Xiaoyu is the executive vice-president of Beijing Organising Committee for the 2008 Olympics, or BOCOG. "We hope the proposals are not just liked by Chinese, but also offer wonderful ceremonies at the Beijing Games for a global audience." Jiang Xiaoyu said that the ceremonies proposals should help promote the Olympic Spirit and create a jubilant atmosphere for the Games. They should also visualize the concepts of 'Green Olympics, High-tech Olympics' and 'People's Olympics'. The BOCOG says it will accept ideas through July 31. The opening and closing ceremonies are the most eye-catching parts of the Olympics and are seen as one of the criteria for a successful Games. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Games is scheduled for August 8, 2008 and the closing ceremony on August 24.
