I need help Please

[ThinkRight]

I am ready to send in another Survivor Application tape.
I need ideas !
12 years and 27 apps never a call back.
What can I do to get noticed ?
What do they want to hear ?

I think you should be very loud and controversial. That way the audience either loves you or hates you. Lord knows they love putting those people on.

Good luck!

have you been to any of their live calls/auditions. They had one at our TINY shopping mall about 4yrs ago. I was there simply shopping & was approached & interviewed. But I have some serious ankle problems & was dealing with post ankle fusion surgery issues & couldn't imagine being in that environment while still recovering.

I truly believe they play / search for the 'hero & villian' angle as well as those who they know will follow specific stereotypes..too many psychology classes

strong personalities
memorable traits

if you are a lady young..willing to sign a waiver for a few closeup & underwater or wet buff t&a shots

I regret not talking to them more seriously

Yes I was at that casting call !
And three others , 1 more there and 2 in Columbia Sc.
Not a female , so no T/A shots.
I did one tape in a sea shell bra and grass skirt , it was kinda funny.
Strong personality not so much . assertive a little when I need to be.
Memorable traits ? Can't think of any. 6'5" is the only thing that comes to mind.
I never quit anything, stubborn as a mule , and a very high tolerance for pain .
If anyone can think of anything even I can do to get a call it would be great !
I would make the cut if I could get an interview .
Thanks

where something on your head as that has been done in shows.

have a quirk, best to make one up as the stranger the better. remember way way back the dude who talked in to shell or nut or something like it was a cell phone?

Go to X-Factor - eat bugs, maybe rats, in a tree, then jump out. Film fire starting with a stick?

go to a beach location & set up a mock tribe ,with you as the strong leader or evil villain..pretty sure that's why they were interested in me
doing part skit part interview showing your traits in a comical way..remember these guys get thousands upon thousands upon applications. Do anything & everything you can to stand out..

for example years ago I'd send out my quotes super large instead of standard 8x11 & it generated a huge amount of exposure and eventually a separate business.

I've received a resume once with a stick of gum attached for me to 'enjoy' while reviewing their resume...weird..but to this day I've never forgotten it & I can't remember even a fraction of 1% of all the resumes I've received & reviewed..so for whatever reason in that sense it worked.
