7/5/2006 - New Opening Sequence; Event Plans

 

The Executive Producer Stephen Stohn posted today on the official Degrassi website about the new opening sequence they are working on for season 6. He states that they are working with Jackalope to mix a version of the opening theme with fewer vocals to compliment all the things going on onscreen for the sequence. In the post he also mentions that while The N is not planning mall tours this summer there is a big event planned to coincide with the Season 6 launch in October. Here is his post below:

"Yes, we were taking a long Canada Day holiday, but now it's time to wish all our American friends Happy July 4th Independence Day!!!

We've been working on the new opening sequence, which may surprise some people, but we are really liking the direction it is taking. As for the music, it is the same basic track, but we've been working with Dave Ogilvie and Jakalope to remix it and use fewer vocals becase of all the things that will be happening onscreen during the opening sequence!

And I haven't want to supplant what The N may want to announce, but it will be becoming clear to everyone that the traditional mall tours as we know them from the past won't be happening this year, but a large event is being planned to launch the series in the U.S. prior to October..."
