Improv Everywhere
***** the yellow parts are the ones I have corrected
Topic: My knowledge on and interest in Improv Everywhere (flash mob) and how "my" own flash mob is.
Main idea: Being interested in flash mobs, I learn about Improv Everywhere and other cool information about flash mob. In the end, I decide to organize a flash mob myself.
Introduction - I will ask someone acts out freeze flash mob for about ten seconds for me.
- Then I will define what a flash mob (Improv Everywhere) is simply.
Topic sentence for paragraph 1: I am interested in this topic because it is fun.
- When I was in the first grade of junior high, I saw a TV program called “American flash mob” on Star World Channel. Besides, I have seen a lot of flash mob videos on the Internet.
- The turning point for me to decide my presentation’s topic is after seeing Taipei 101 flash mob video. I was shocked by the video. I don’t know such a mob can impress so many people. Though it is just a kind of activity, I think there are many interesting things behind the scene. Flash mob isn’t popular in Asia, so it may lead me to a new world by doing this project.
- I am not an out-going person so I would like to try something new or learn to release myself by this topic to overcome this disadvantage.
Topic sentence for paragraph 2: Improv Everywhere is different from flash mobs. And why people will participate in their missions.
(1) The differences between Improv Everywhere are
a. Improv Everywhere was created about 2 years before the first “flash mob.” Our projects are rarely over in a flash. Many last for hours.
b. While some of our missions may have certain similarities to a flash mob (large numbers of people engaging in a coordinated activity in a public place), we have never embraced that term. Also, some missions use just a few folks while others might use thousands, depending on what suits the idea.
c. Improv Everywhere will repeat the same theme again and again. They did these for fun. But most of the flash mobs will have a certain purpose.
(2) The reasons why they take part in it are
a. They think it is fun and new. They would like to try once to see what’s going on. Or maybe they want to see a lot of people doing the same action at the same time with their own eyes.
b. If we look at it in the way of psychology, I find out that maybe they are just under too much pressure so that they want to relax by doing something special.
(3) I will give both flash mobs and Improv Everywhere missions examples
a. Improv Everywhere- Black tie Beach
- Mall Santa Classical
- Gotta share! The musical
b. International Zouk flash mob- 2013
Topic sentence for paragraph 3: I have learned so many things during the whole process.
Personal feelings:
(1) Even a small gesture can make people happy. Not to mention, we can make our life different by doing something special together.
(2) Don’t take everything seriously. It’s not necessary for you to find out significant meanings in everything. We can just do it for fun.
Problems:
(3) Though the action doesn’t break the law, it may catches polices’ eyes. In my opinion, if the action doesn’t break the law, there’s no right or wrong. It’s just because we view things from different perspectives.
(4) Reading so much information and knowing so many flash mob organizations, I think it’s quite scary if they gather to do something bad one day. They may be a social problem.
Conclusion: Learning so many things about flash mob, I would like to hold my own flash mob.
a. If my flash mob works, I will show the pictures and video. Besides, I will talk about my feeling during the whole process.
b. If my flash mob doesn’t work, I will talk about my plans about holding a flash mob or the contact between Zouk and me.
*Here are the details about my flash mob.
1. When: I will hold it at either after our competition or winter vacation.
2. Where: 信義區 (新光三越之間的廣場)
This place is big enough and it’s convenient for me to record video.
3. What: Freeze flash mob- 9 minutes- 3 minutes- freeze
- 3 minutes- unfreeze
-3 minutes- freeze
4. How: I will use facebook to spread the news.
