The staging for the contest

RTS ran a competition that led to the creation of the 2008 Contest's branding, logo and the stage.^[19] The theme of this year’s Eurovision Song Contest is based around the “confluence of sound”. It is symbolic as Belgrade lies on the Sava and Danube rivers and is the place where the two European rivers meet. The logo chosen, a music key, forms the graphical basis of the design created by Boris Miljković.^[20] The theme art features as the basis of the concept, and will also play an important role in the production of the post cards, the short introduction videos before each song and during the shows. For other uses of this word, see Sava (disambiguation). ...

For other senses of this word, see clef (disambiguation). ...

According to RTS the stage represents native identities, history and modern themes, symbols and universally recognised messages. The confluence stage also contains a large number of television and LCD display screens. The stage will have settings for all new electronic possibilities including some movable parts of the stage.^[21] It was designed by Chicago-based David Cushing. The first semi-final is being created around a city theme, the second semi-final around the river theme and the final is based on the theme of confluence. Construction for the stage has began in the Belgrade Arena. LCD redirects here. ...

Format

Based on research conducted by the EBU's tele-voting partner Digame, the semi-finalists will be sorted into the two heats through the drawing of lots, which will be seeded to keep countries that have a significant history of voting for each other apart.^{[citation needed]} Each broadcaster will have to broadcast the semi-final they are taking part in, with the broadcasting of the other semi-final being optional. The draw for the semi-final allocation occurred in the Belgrade City Hall on Monday 28 January 2008 at 13:00 CET and was conducted by dancers from the National Dance Ensemble KOLO. First, two envelopes with 'Semi-Final 1' and 'Semi-Final 2' were drawn. Then, three countries from each pot were chosen randomly to take part in the first semi-final and the other three in the second one. The country left in Pot 5 took part in the first envelope that is drawn. While, the country left in Pot 6 in the second one.^[22] is the 28th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar. ... 2008 (MMVIII) is the current year, a leap year that started on Tuesday of the Anno Domini (or common era), in accordance to the Gregorian calendar. ...

From the draw conducted, it was decided which of the five finalist countries will broadcast and have voting rights in either of the events.
