Make a Difference Casting Call (MTC-W Blog Assignment #1)

Jul02

ARE YOU READY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

This is an audition notice for those interested in being on an upcoming TV show, Make a Difference. This show will be filmed in Toronto, Ontario. We are looking for two teams of four that consists of enthusiastic, charismatic, committed and driven individuals to be on the first five episodes (the first week of the show).

*All members must be 18 years old or older.

 

Making a Difference involves teamwork, strategic thinking, being active and lots of fun. Most importantly, this show is about making a difference. All the challenges are to make a difference in someone’s life or affect someone in a positive way.

 

Each week, the obstacles and challenges the teams have to conquer challenges. Some weeks there might be a new challenge everyday and some weeks there might be a challenge that lasts the team for the whole week.

 

Teams will always receive prizes regardless of how they do. These prizes are the gift bags containing products from the TV show’s sponsors. Wendy Huang, the show’s host, will be asking trivial questions throughout the episodes. These questions, if answered correctly, will allow more prizes added to their gift bags that the teams will be receiving. This makes the teams do research surrounding their task. With certain time limits during their challenges, this requires the teams to manage their time well and use their teamwork and leadership skills.

 

 

The first week of episodes have three challenges that the teams have to face. Both teams start off with 50 points. When one team wins the challenge, they receive 5 points from the other team while the team that lost the challenge loses the 5 points. Then the winning team of a challenge receives a trivial question from me regarding their task. If they answer it correctly, they receive more gifts in the gift bags they will receive in the end. At the end, the team with the most points will receive a trip to a one week vacation in Nassau, Bahamas sponsored by Goody, Toronto Academy of Acting and P&G beinggirl.ca.

 

Challenge #1: This challenge will take two days. Both teams are given the same supply of Goody products and a budget of $100 to buy anything they want from a local dollar store. Each team is given a day to come up with a game for elementary students with these products.

The criteria:

- the products can’t be destroyed

the students must be able to keep a Goody product in the end

Then both teams teach their games to a group of students and the students are allowed to play. The team that receives the most votes from the students after both of their games has been tested out, wins the challenge.

During this challenge, Wendy will be visiting the students beforehand and telling them about what they will be expecting. Then she will go around to these elementary kids asking them a few little questions about them – name, grade and their feelings – if they’re excited, what they are looking forward to, etc. Ms. Huang will also be traveling between the two teams to see how their progress of creating their game is going. At the end of the challenge, Wendy will ask a trivial question to the winning team. (ex. When was Goody created?)

Then the students are given the Goody products to keep.

 

Challenge #2: This challenge will take four days. The teams have a chance to visit and learn from the Toronto Academy of Acting, become familiar with P&G beinggirl.ca and create a television commercial. The first day will document the team’s learning process and the acting and on set workshops they receive from the Toronto Academy of Acting. The second day, the teams have to do research on P&G beinggirl.ca. Both teams will be given a box of the same questions that teenagers from a junior high school have put in. The professionalism and correctness they answer in will determine if more prizes will be added into their gift bags. For the last two days, each team must come up with a commercial for P&G beinggirl.ca.

The criteria:

- include P&G beingirl.ca’s logo and cause

- include a footage of P&G beinggirl.ca’s website

include a footage of somewhere on the Toronto School of Acting campus

under three minutes

Each team’s commercial will then be judged by three esteemed professors at the Toronto Academy of Acting to determine the winner.

During this challenge, Wendy will be interviewing the Dean at the Toronto Academy of Acting and Iris, the advice giver on P&G beinggirl.ca regarding their objectives and programs. This will allow the audience to know more about our sponsors. Wendy will also be interviewing the teams to see how they are holding out, what ideas they have in mind during their challenge. Then the winning team will receive a question to have a chance in adding more prizes into their gift bags. (ex. Which instructor at the Toronto Academy of Acting starred in the It’s Alan? What is the United Nations campaign P&G beinggirl.ca is involved with?)
