The Chaser Decides needs volunteers!

Call for volunteers



 


The Chaser team is looking for volunteers to wander around in the background of its “National Tallyroom” (located in Artarmon, Sydney!) for fake vote counting action in its upcoming election special, The Chaser Decides.





This is a more-than-once-every-series chance to be a part of the making of a Chaser TV show – it’s much more interactive than just sitting in the audience and having people entertain you! More repetitive too. You’ll see behind the scenes of a TV shoot – and what you’ll see is yourself!





It’s a great opportunity to see the Chaser team fluff their lines take after take. Come along and smash any illusions you have about the ‘magic’ of television…


 


Dress: office wear – you need to look like an electoral worker


Guys – at minimum, open necked button-up shirt and dark coloured slacks, no jeans … some in suits would be good


Girls – smart casual for business





When: two 4 hour sessions per studio record





Session 1A – Wed, 22 Sept  9:30 – 13:00


Session 1B – Wed, 22 Sept  13:30 - 18:00


 


Session 2A – Wed, 29 Sept 9:30 – 13:00


Session 2B – Wed, 29 Sept 13:30 - 18:00


 


Session 3A – Wed, 6 Oct  9:30 – 13:00


Session 3B – Wed, 6 Oct  13:30 - 18:00


 


Session 4A – Wed, 13 Oct  9:30 – 13:00


Session 4B – Wed, 13 Oct  13:30 - 18:00


 


Where:  4 Lanceley Place, Artarmon





To register:  email chaserdecides@your.abc.net.au to register your interest. Please include:


*name


*contact phone number


*session(s) you can do





Any queries: call The Chaser Decides on 8333-3332








And remember! We cant promise itll be fun! But we CAN promise youll be in the background of The Chaser Decides!

I am SERIOUSLY considering doing this.....although I know Id end up standing stock still, gawping into the camera with my mouth opening and closing soundlessly and then my cover would be shot and, ultimately, my budding career as a TV presenter up in flames. Maybe I could pretend to be blind and wear dark glasses....that would help make me less self-concious....and would also show that The Chaser respects and values the contributions of those differently challenged members of society....so by rights you should have a representative from Bidwell there as well. *shudder*:p

Ive registered for Sessions 2 and 3 - Full credit for my availability to the
conveniently timed Uni holidays. I hope that I get to shuffle paper and
look (unsuitably) knowledgeable.

Small Question.

How do we know if were going to be on? It seems very obvious and
simple, ie. that theyd call the contact number provided, but would ABC
budget cuts make it financially unsound to call my mobile number?

and if so, then should I send in a home phone number, even though its
an STD number and hence would cost more....

Yeah, no worries. Get back to me when youve organised my first-class flight from Hobart and the penthouse accommodation. Ill also require some tall, high-class Asian prostitutes who dont mind getting it on together. On second thoughts, not all Asian ones. Maybe include say, a Russian tart and a caramel-skinned black chick.


Ill leave it up to you guys to organize some quality drugs. Dont skimp on the quantity either. When I entertain I like to "go large".


Thanks in advance.
