Hey There!
I'm producing a documentary for MTV about people who
lead "double lives" online. We're reaching out to a
number of different online groups and cultures, and we
thought it could be fascinating to profile someone who gambles online.
Below is our formal "casting" notice:
MTV'S TRUE LIFE:
"I Live Another Life on the Web"
Do you sometimes feel as if you're living a double
life? Are you pretending to be someone you're not? Do
you have one identity in your everyday life, but a
different one when you're alone and on-line? Does your
virtual avatar make you feel confident behind your
computer screen? Are you famous online but feel like
you're invisible in real life?
Do you have trouble approaching someone for a date in
person, but when you're behind the comfort of your
computer, do the words just flow? Would you be afraid
to be yourself if you were ever to come face-to-face
with your online friends or companions? Do you get so
caught up in the person you pretend to be on the web
that you maintain that persona in person?
If you appear to be between the ages of 16 and 28, and
live another life on the web, email us at:
brosen@leftright.tv with your story.
Please be sure to include your name, location, phone
number and a photo, if possible.
Best,
Benjamin Rosen
