Brain Storming: The Application

From what I can tell about applying for the Amazing Race, I have to do the following:
1. Send a picture of myself.
2. Send a picture of my team mate.
3. Send a picture of us together.
4. Send a three minute video.
5. Fill-out a short written application.
*This is all due by November 7.

Of course, the most intimidating and exciting of those is the video portion. Lauren and I  have a plan. Next Sunday we are going to meet to do portions of the video. A good friend of mine who is a genius and hilarious volunteered to be the videographer. I have a page full of ideas of what to talk about and shots to take.

I, also, have been researching on line other people's application videos. There are hundreds on there, and I have been having a hard time finding the winning videos -vs- the random videos that did not make it.

I did find a video that was rather impressive, Tyler & BJ's video HERE. Tyler & BJ, also known as the hippies, was pretty amazing. They had shots of them in other countries when they were on their Semester at Sea. They definitely look fun and enjoyable to watch. After I watched that I started to think of a theme for us. There is no way Lauren and I can genuinely convey that      level of goofy.

Then I found Claire and Brooke, shopping network hosts, video HERE. They just stood in a backyard and did the video. That helped me feel more confident with our video. Brooke and Claire were one of my favorite teams. In their video hit all the points why they should be on the show, and important things about their team.
