Hello, my lovelies! Here we have a patron reward for Mackenzie Buckle, who wanted an advertisement for Beacon if it was an academy for aspiring idols rather than Huntsmen.

Enjoy!

A supercut of various stages, cheering crowds, singers, and dancers is shown, accompanied by an upbeat techno song and various multicolored lights. The collection ends with an aerial shot of a gigantic stage hosting thousands of people. The stage is in the shadow of an even bigger, mightier structure: a white-walled academy. A green emblem of two crossed axes surrounded by laurels appears over the image, along with the words: "Beacon Idol Academy."

The image fades to a very fancy office decorated with pictures of many successful music stars. The camera pans over some of these photos before settling on a large desk and the man sitting behind it. He is wearing a green suit and is holding a cane.

He smiles. "Greetings, everyone. I am Ozpin, Headmaster of Beacon Idol Academy, where stars are not only found, but trained. We believe that anyone who wishes to make it in the music industry deserves the chance to learn and thrive." He stands up, gesturing politely. "If you follow me, I'd be happy to introduce you to some of our students."

Ozpin is shown walking down a hallway of lockers, each one decorated differently. He approaches a girl standing by a locker decorated with several corgi pictures and a plush corgi magnet. "Here we have Ruby Rose, a first-year at our school."

The girl smiles brightly, quickly adjusting her red cloak before waving at the camera. "Hi, everyone!"

"Miss Rose, would you like to tell the people watching this exactly what you like about Beacon Idol Academy?"

"Well, when I first auditioned, I was pretty good at singing, but not so great at dancing. The professors worked with me to make a schedule that would help improve my singing while giving me more intense dancing lessons. I want to be a pop singer, so both are pretty important. They figure out what you need most, and make your lesson plan based on that," Ruby explains. "Also, the people here are super nice!"

"Thank you, Miss Rose," Ozpin says. "Now, let us look in on our students in the dance studio."

The screen fades out again, this time showing a large studio with several mirrors, bars, and posters showing the proper form required for different moves. Three students are practicing. A ginger woman is using one of the bars to practice keeping her leg at a certain height. The smaller of the two young men is showing his friend how to do a perfect twirl.

"Perfect timing!" Ozpin comments, as if the whole commercial hadn't been planned in advance. "Allow me to introduce Nora Valkyrie, Lie Ren, and Jaune Arc!"

Nora waves at the camera while trying to get her foot off the bar. Ren bows politely while Jaune grins.

"Mister Arc, how would you describe our dancing program?"

"Really great!" Jaune replies immediately. "I had some basic knowledge before coming here, and the teachers have been teaching me more advanced stuff at a decent pace. Also, I have Ren helping me out when we have free time."

"I can't feel my leg!" Nora declares. Ren hurries over to help her down from the bar.

The scene changes to a large indoor auditorium. A young woman with white hair is singing a series of warmup notes in a clear, silvery voice. Two other women are reading lyrics.

"Good afternoon, ladies," Ozpin greets. "Here we have Weiss Schnee, Yang Xiao Long, and Blake Belladonna, who have all been working with our professors to improve their singing. Do you have anything to say?"

"Totally!" Yang pipes up. "This school is awesome! There are a ton of options, whether you want to focus on singing, dancing, instrumentals, or all of the above. Like, my buddy Jaune is a great dancer, but he also became super skilled on the guitar after taking extra lessons. We're working on a song together."

"If it's the one you were showing me that's about broken glass, don't. Just don't," Blake mutters, rolling her eyes.

"Hey, it's a perfect example of musical comedy!" Yang protests. "Upbeat tone with weirdly-dark subject matter." She gives the camera a tragic look. "Clearly, I'm unappreciated in my time."

Ozpin chuckles, giving his students a fond look. "Miss Schnee, do you have anything to add?"

The woman on stage nods primly. "This is a wonderful, state-of-the-art school that has already improved my abilities and taught me ways to get better on my own time. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about making a career as a singer, dancer, or general musician."

"Thank you very much, Miss Schnee." Ozpin turns back to the camera. "Now, if you'll come with me, I'll introduce you to one of our star pupils."

The screen changes to a smaller, private rehearsal room where a red-haired woman is sitting at a grand piano. She smiles as Ozpin and the camera approach. "Hello again, sir."

"Hello, Miss Nikos," Ozpin greets before gesturing at the student. "This is Pyrrha Nikos, who earned a bit of her own fame before coming to Beacon due to attracting a great deal of positive attention at several amateur piano recitals throughout Mistral."

Pyrrha inclines her head modestly.

"Miss Nikos, would you be so kind as to play for us as we bring this tour to a close?"

"Of course, sir." Pyrrha turns back to the piano and starts to play a soothing but very catchy and memorable melody. Her hands move gracefully over the keys, her slender fingers seeming to gently snatch each note out of the air like a butterfly before letting it go just as quickly.

As the song continues, the camera pans out away from Pyrrha and Ozpin. The screen fades, and the camera pans even further, out of the school, over the grounds where several students are walking, and finally into the aerial view from the beginning of the advertisement. The song hits a crescendo, then grows quieter as the scene slowly fades to a dark screen bearing the emblem of the school.

Ozpin's voice is heard again saying "Beacon Idol Academy, where stars are made." The saying appears underneath the emblem as the piano music ends along with the advertisement.

I also have an announcement: I'm open for commissions! Yay! There are three open slots, so feel free to message me. Rules for commissions are on my profile.
