Posts: 68 (07/13/09 9:14 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	My friends Kate and Dustin and I filmed a draft of a potential audition video to go along with our (Dustin's and my) applications, while we were canoeing. They visited me at my house. We think it's pretty good; it's funny and dramatic. We are having a few issues, though: One is that we missed the deadline for applying for season 16, so we'll have to apply for the following season. The other issue is that videos have to be shorter than 3 minutes. It says so in the rules. I think ours is just over 4 minutes. Fortunately Kate, who filmed, has a Mac computer, so maybe she can edit our footage down to about 3 minutes using iMovie. What we did: We were canoeing, and I started paddling like mad as I would on the show. The video starts with me paddling like there's no tomorrow (lol), then I speed up again when Kate narrates that she thought we were near the finish mat or line, then I speed up again when Kate narrates that she thinks she sees my house. What we said: I shouted some things to my teammate, Dustin, as I would on the show: "Come on, Dustin! I want to hear Phil (the host) say that we're team #1!" Kate said something about how we seemed to be almost out of the Amazon and I told a (true) story about fishing for piranhas in Iquitos in the Amazon. What advice can I offer you for your audition video? Just be yourself. They're looking for people who have a lot of personality; they're looking for personality.

Posts: 69 (07/13/09 9:51 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	But I think you asked what ideas people had for videos, what they did, and what they said. We can't send our video in yet because it's too long and because we missed the deadline for #16.

I imagine they get sick of listening to TAR theme and people saying how great they are.

Posts: 70 (07/14/09 3:58 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Connection Block Invite	OK, so...our video is over 4 minutes, even though the rules state that videos must be shorter than 3 minutes. I think our video is pretty funny and dramatic. The other thing is that we missed the July 10 deadline for season 16, so we have to wait and apply for #17.

Just send it regular mail so it doesn't cost you that much in case they do just throw it away which I doubt very much they would do.
