NOW CASTING: Treasure Hunters!

[smokeythecat]

Don't just select hunky 20 something year old males. Although there's nothing wrong there. Wouldn't it be interesting to find some old toads or toadettes for your program? Gives it a human feel.

We're definitely looking for all types of people! No specifics except we want them to be genuinely excited about treasure hunting! And a great personality is key of course. Definitely send in a submission and we'll be in contact!

How long will this casting be open for applications?

 

[MinerGirl]

Hi, I nominate GIB, Hobo, and myself. We can go to GIB's Fenn solve 1st, then Hobo's spot, you know, to build suspence, then go to my solve as the "Grand Finale" where we'll actually find the Treasure! MinerGirl..

 

[CaptEsteban]

I would apply but I am probably getting too old for a TV show. I cannot do flips, climb trees, roll in the mud, & crawl through doghouses like i used to.

 

[toolmanbutch]

Ah Crap. I wanted to be Famous. Maybe a Star on the Walk of Shame.

Well of course if selected for the show you'll be compensated for your time and appearance, but we're not looking for people who want to be famous or anything like that. Right now we're just in the casting phase, so specifics about "what you'll get" would be worked out with producers if selected.

BaHaHaHaHaHa

I know where Forrest Fenn's treasure is.

You fund it and I'll let you go along with my wife and I and our parrot.

You will have to bleep her a lot though. (the parrot mostly, but occasionally the wife)

I am a legend in my own mind... does that count ? :P

If we hit my spot first they will get to film the party- So, let's go to Hobo's first.

That way there will be some beautiful scenery and perhaps a little camping in the Rockies.

Whoever's solve proves correct will get a 2/3rds cut. (I'll split it up fairly)

Since we never met I'm imagining that this crew will look something like Grumpy Old Men meets the Golden Girls.

An few important questions about compensation: Will prospective team members be compensated for time and expenses should the proposed show not be picked up by a cable network? Can you forward a copy of any and all standard contracts to me prior to any meeting? Is there yet a viable synopsis of your proposed show?

I ask because most proposed reality shows remain no more than that. Proposals. For every "Deadliest Catch" there are hundreds that never air an episode. A look at your website gives me the impression that you submit ideas to cable networks and advertising companies, producing little on your own. Of course, I could be reading your website wrong. I invite you to show that my perception is in error with a positive response to my first paragraph.

Time for coffee.

 

[toolmanbutch]

I smell Scam!

 

[galenrog]

This could very well be a scam. It could also be legit. There are many small companies that stay afloat simply by pitching ideas and proposals to companies that have the resources to make the ideas into product. From the scant information offered, I can not form an adequate opinion. I will base such an opinion on any answer to my previous post. Caution, as always, is best.

A new cable show on treasurer hunting, just what we need! (really need an Imogene of a smiley face shooting itself in the head).

Well I don't jump up and down ever time I get a beep nor do I do back flips when I recover the target (coin, ring, buckle, or bottle cap).
So I am not the type you are looking for.

Try hiring a couple of writers and put some creative into making a show, make it fiction, cast a couple of preteen hunting for some legendary lost treasure. Try and producing some real entertainment for once. Reality shows are nothing but a bearded lady. If you need a better reference look up P.T. Barnum.

p.s. I don't have cable or satellite, just an old fashion antenna.

I have done some work on a few TV shows (ie small parts or as an extra) and the casting directors always used gmail. Even when I was on bigger stuff like Sleepy Hollow it was always a gmail made up for that production. Here is a link to their IMDB page and their shows seem inline to metal detecting...This is Just a Test Productions [us]

Just dont give your SS# out. Most of that other stuff can be found from anywhere (ie look yourself up on spokeo). Most of the productions I worked with always wanted my height, weight, sizes, build, hair color, eye color, pictures, videos...never my address or SS# until they were writing the check.

 

[lawsonland]

Will we have to do cartwheels, make-up nicknames for stuff, jump around, hoot & holler when something is found?

Definitely! We would never ask for SS# or any type of personal financial information (and if anyone ever requires that for television, do not comply as that is a scam) but the information in the submission form is basic contact and story info we would need to move forward in the casting.

And of course we will provide our contact information as well (phone numbers, office address, etc.) through private emails, just not on a message board for all to see as I'm sure you understand. Send in a submission and we'll be in contact! And thanks to those who already have emailed us - we're working on getting replies to you all and answering any questions you may have! THANKS!

Could be a do-able deal. Hopefully I'm not at the "Golden Girl" stage quite yet, however it concerns me a little that the camera adds 10 pounds! And those 10 pounds are never added to the right spots..Lol I'll bring my one daughter and son along (my other daughter, though a beauty, isn't keen on TV attention like her older sister. She says she just wants to be Normal..Haha) My son and daughter can distract the camera crew and bring in the teen thru 20's demographic and my son can carry the chest with one hand while packing in all our stuff and pushing and pulling his Mom up and down the Mountains..He's "Strong like Bull"...
