My name is Lauren Kalb and I am a casting director for a new extreme survival series on a major cable network. We are looking for elite survival experts who will face situations that require intense, split-second decision-making and instinctual, laser-sharp response. It’s not enough to be a weekend warrior – this series requires experience, ingenuity, and determination. Stripped of even the most basic of necessities, participants will rely only upon their bare hands to survive. Seeking men and women, 20’s – 40’s, who are highly skilled survival experts with legitimate training and experience.

Please forward this to anyone you know who might fit the bill. To apply, send photos and some of your survival experience to me at laurenk@metalflowersmedia.com.

Thanks so much!
Lauren

Wow ... a survival show where people actually do "survival". Some of you guys should think about this.

I wonder what constitutes "extreme survival" ??? Do you think they allow a mortality rate on this show.

HAHAHA!!!

Highly doubt that. Do you really know what your statement means, or are you parroting some screenwriter's prose?

You say you're casting for an "Extreme Survivalist" show. Are you purposefully mixing the terms 'survivalist' with 'survival expert'? Do you understand the difference?

Sorry but the two statements are mutually exclusive. frown PPPPPP

Unfortunately the single sheet TP Sheryl Crow method still remains classified at the Ministry of Defense and cannot be shown on US TV. shocked

Do you have any further info on this project as the last TV show called 'Stars Earn Stripes' was pretty appalling even without Desmond Tutu, Jody Williams, Mairead Maguire, Betty Williams, Jose Manuel Ramos-Horta, Adolfo Perez Esquivel, Rigoberta Menchu Tum, and Shirin Ebadi calling for it to be cancelled after all stating;

Quote:
It is our belief that this program pays homage to no one anywhere and continues and expands on an inglorious tradition of glorifying war and armed violence. Real war is down in the dirt deadly. People—military and civilians—die in ways that are anything but entertaining.


Would it be something many wouldn't want to be associated with?

Being outside the age category specified I'm not interested either. Besides that I hate reality TeeVee; at least with SciFi fiction is part of the genre definition.
