Hey. I teach English in France and to keep my students motivated, I'm actually working with them on TV shows, and especially Survivor. We working on qualities required be a perfect candidate, skills you must have this kind of things. In a few weeks from now, I'll ask them to pretend they want to join the next survivor season, to tell the rest of the class why they must be on the show and to be as convincing as possible.
Before reaching this step, I'd like to make them listen to 'candidates' introducing themselves and explaining why they are the best. I got scripts ready, and I'll submit two of them to you guys . I have planned to work with two separate groups listening to 2 different candidates,and after having listened to the castings, I'll ask them to choose the best and explain why. Below is script number two
For this second script, I need a MAN'S voice. If the person recording this script could try and sound like a really motivated candidate that would be awesome . It would make my students believe they're listening to a real 'casting' and keep them motivated. But I'm also okay with anyone recording it without acting, if you're not in the 'Survivor' mood' :-) . It can be recorded at natural speed.
Thx
Hey, I’m John Rogers. I’m from New York City and I’m the next Survivor champion. I’m quite sociable, not lazy at all, and I really like meeting new people. I have one quality which I think makes me the perfect candidate : I can be really really manipulative to get what I want. I know you need manipulative people like me on the show so don't forget it !
Of course, I am also very sporty. I have tried many sports : soccer, basketball, rock-climbing, bowing, athletics and many others. One thing to remember about me : I’m good at everything I do.
I used to go fishing with my dad when I was young , that’s why now I can fish really well . Why am I talking about fishing ? Because since I’m really good at it, I could easily bring food to my tribe and make myself very useful. And I'm also really good at hunting.
One last thing you need to know about me: I’m not afraid of eating big juicy worms or these kinds of things you like to have us eat. Bring them on a plate: I'll eat them all. Do you want to know why ? Because I'm the next Survivor
Do you
This was fun. :)
